This Spanish Kapow teacher video supports you in delivering a lesson that combines core vocabulary with cultural understanding. Pupils will learn numbers one to twelve through engaging games and songs while discovering how numbers are used in everyday life across the Spanish-speaking world. From playground rhymes to board games like la oca, children encounter authentic contexts that make counting fun and memorable. Opportunities to practise oral language and reinforce key vocabulary are embedded in activities that focus on repetition, turn-taking, and interactive play.

This video is part of Kapow Primary’s Spanish scheme of work – culture. It gives practical guidance on how to embed cultural knowledge into language learning, with traditions such as the Three Kings’ celebrations and the New Year’s Eve twelve-grape challenge offering exciting ways to deepen pupils’ understanding. These activities go beyond language acquisition by enriching pupils’ global awareness and making Spanish learning more meaningful, purposeful, and joyful.
