A fantastic poster that students can stick in their books so they know what they need to do for each component of the Language examination. This is specifically for the WJEC course and details the percentage of each component, how many marks you get for each question and the type of texts you will read and be asked to write. This is very handy for students to refer to in each lesson to remind them about what they are studying and why.

Macbeth Gossip Activity

An interactive activity to share ideas quickly about the play. Students are each given their piece of information, then they spread their 'gossip' around the room, exchanging information as they go. After the three minutes is up, they then sit back down and write up everything they can remember that they have read in the last couple of minutes. Students LOVE this and it creates a fantastic learning buzz in the classroom.
