Description
Vocabulario legal interactivo is a substantial A2 Spanish lesson designed to introduce and practise useful legal vocabulary through accessible, varied and highly interactive activities.
Students work with vocabulary connected with trials, contracts, property, disputes and everyday legal situations, developing their understanding through classification, sentence completion, definitions, word formation, antonyms and vocabulary puzzles.
The lesson goes beyond individual words and introduces useful expressions such as llegar a un acuerdo amistoso, incumplir un contrato, presentar una demanda, declararse culpable, apelar una sentencia, interponer un recurso and comparecer ante el tribunal. Proverbs and common expressions provide further opportunities to understand how legal vocabulary is used in context.
A substantial oral interaction section encourages students to use the vocabulary actively through questions about contracts, consumer rights, landlords, fines, claims and legal advice. Students also respond to practical situations involving contractual problems, judicial notifications, deposits and witnesses.
Listening practice is included through a dialogue between a lawyer and a client about a contractual dispute, followed by a true or false comprehension activity. The complete transcript is provided.
The final section introduces the practical context of mortgages. Students compare four different mortgage products, interpret information about interest rates, commissions and contractual conditions, choose the most appropriate option for a particular situation and explain their decision using the target vocabulary.
The resource also contains numerous clickable links and interactive online activities, allowing students to extend their practice beyond the PDF. An internet connection is required to make full use of all the linked content.
A complete answer key is included.
