Señora Renouf's French & Spanish Resources

I did my undergraduate degree in French and Spanish at the University of Cambridge and my PGCE at King's College, London. I teach French and Spanish from KS3 to KS5. When starting out I realised that there weren't many high-quality resources available to download or available at my school so I spent hours and hours creating my own! I'd love to share them with you. There are lots of engaging games, AFL activities and differentiated resources available.
