The PowerPoint quiz is designed for use with students of all ages and abilities. The questions + facts should enhance students’ knowledge about languages and promote discussion. This would be a good resource to use as part of your European Day of Languages celebrations. There are copies of this resource with the quiz questions and the final activity in English, German & French on my shop (I have deliberately kept the fact slides in English on these in order to allow further clarification and discussion). I have also attached a version of the PowerPoint with the quiz element removed, in order to produce a quick display about Language Facts, which could be used all year round.

A series of resources to use at the start of students’ German learning journey. Resources include a starter/ice breaker activity in which you can demonstrate lots of German words which students will be able to recognise, regardless of whether they have ever doe any German before or not. The second PowerPoint introduces basic phrases (greetings, giving your name & saying how you are) to enable students to quickly build to understanding and conducting a simple conversation in German.

A series of resources in German to use with students linked to the 2026 Football World Cup (French & Spanish also available). Resources include whole class, small group/pair and individual activities. Each resource is designed to be used as a standalone resource, but could also be used as part of a series of lessons. I have included resources on football vocabulary and terminology, countries participating in the World Cup, languages, flags, the host cities and stadiums, players, an imaginary match report and general World Cup information and quizzes. There are opportunities here for the students to get some dictionary practice, do independent research and to do project work.

A good activity to use at the very start of students’ French learning journey. This resource is designed to show students just how many words in French are easy to recognise/work out, prompting a discussion about cognates and the reasons for so many similarities between French & English.

A PowerPoint + accompanying sheet to introduce and practise numbers in French. Includes phonics practice + dictionary skills practice.

A resource to introduce and practise greetings in French, building up to a simple dialogue in French.

These resources are designed to practise key question words in French, to help prepare students for coping with understanding the questions being asked by the teacher in both the read-aloud and picture tasks and to practise the questions which the students need to ask in the role-play. I have taken these from specimen papers published to date. In the case of the questions which students need to ask in the role-play, I have used the wording on the specimen papers - in many cases, the question which the students will need to ask will be the same or similar, so you can ‘train’ students on how they can use the same question or just tweak it slightly. The 2 posters included here have question words in both French & German and are also sold separately elsewhere in my shop along with other display materials.

A couple of resources to use for students to practise talking about what people are doing in the picture task using key verbs and to hopefully help avoid the ‘ils sont jouer’ scenario!!

A PowerPoint giving key information about the Tour de France. Accompanying resources are designed to reinforce students’ understanding of this iconic French sporting event and introduce them to key vocabulary associated with this topic.

Mind maps covering various topics. Can be printed and used by students for independent vocabulary revision.

A resource booklet for use at KS3. Contains a phonics grid, key vocabulary by topic, high frequency vocabulary and phrases, some basic grammar notes and space for students to add their own vocabulary. The booklet is designed to encourage independent learning and includes a contents page so that students can easily find the vocabulary they need. We print this booklet A5 size with a coloured front cover so that we can refer to it throughout the course. You could adapt this so that students add their own translations.

This resource bank includes a revision programme, designed to encourage independent weekly revision broken down into key topics/subtopics. The revision programme is designed using the principal of interleaving and can be adapted as appropriate. The revision guide/workbook referred to is the Pearsons one, but this could easily be changed to reflect the page numbers in other revision guides. The programme makes reference to some other resources, which are attached here (again, easily adapted) + to a speaking & writing questions booklet, which is for sale elsewhere on my shop.

These resources include a spreadsheet for trial exam results which will calculate grades for individual papers + overall grades at both Foundation & Higher Tier. Because there are no grade boundaries for the new exam, I have decided to use the last lot of grade boundaries as at least a starting point- the last lot of grade boundaries were back to where they should be, as the previous few years had adjustments for COVID and also to address the harsh marking for MFL. I have therefore created the spreadsheet using the Edexcel 2025 grade boundaries from the old exam, scaled to match the marks for each component for the new GCSE. In future years, you just need to change the marks to grades on the second sheet of the spreadsheet (overall marks to grades + individual components). There are also tick sheet marksheets for the new writing exams to hopefully speed up marking and see where students are gaining/dropping marks + some feedback/target sheets for students to have for all components of the exams. These can be added to/adapted as necessary. Finally there is a sheet for students to log their marks & grades for their trial exams - again, can be adapted as appropriate.
