¡Hoy toca barbacoa!

Your focused learning plan in one place

Let’s focus on the world of barbacoas this week, and of course, for many of us, the star of the show: la carne. You’ll find two super useful vocabulary lists, one with different types of meat and another with ways to cook it.

And, because we “do” barbecues, it’s the perfect moment to go through different conjugations of the verb hacer in Spanish.

We’ll wrap it all up with a fun, summery song by a well-known artist to keep the mood upbeat.

A2 Common meat vocabulary

B1 Cooking styles for meat

Conjugations of hacer in different tenses: Shared notebook

Now, enjoy this upbeat, nostalgic song that’s a Spanish summer classic! Practice your reading and listening skills with this catchy song by Georgie Dann:
