This is a Y7 activity I call guided translation. Students are given an English text, followed by a partly completed parallel translation. Topic: my family. Students must fill the missing parts. I have a few of these on ther Y7 page. Level A1. Students could just have a go on their own, or you could go through it with them as they complete it.
