This resource is a booklet of 18 role-plays based on areas of topic vocabulary required at Common Entrance 13+. I have written the role-plays myself on each topic; following the format of the pupil copy (in English), together with a teacher script (in French). There is a blank page for notes. This could be used in class or set as revision. Users could easily add to and extend the range of role-plays. Summary pupil guidance for the examination and an interpretation of the mark scheme is included. There is also a list of additional useful phrases for pupils to learn in preparation for the examination. The aim of the list of useful phrases is to enable pupils to be familiar with suitable phrases in advance so that they only need use the dictionary during the examination to look up unknown vocabulary items.

This is a spreadsheet of ‘mix and match’ comments to help save hours of report writing. Simply choose a ready-made comment from each column to give a balanced view as to what a pupil has been learning, what he/she can do well, needs to improve on and a target. Just insert name where the ‘x’ is with Control + Find and Replace on Excel! Feedback welcome as I have loads of other topics like this in French, Spanish and German.
