* Each page contains a table that guides teachers on what to teach and expected outcomes each week. * Table headings are: Objectives, Grammar & Tenses, Vocabulary, Pronunciation opportunities, Questions, Possible activities, Homework and Stamps, HPA (more-able students) * This scheme isn't intended to restrict teachers' activities, but to suggest ideas in case they're looking for inspiration! * Objectives are differentiated (green - weaker students; blue - mainstream; red - very able students. * Integrates grammar pages, page resources and extension activities from Viva 1. * Curates activities in the books to create a logical progression from discovery to production. * Makes frequent reference to exercises and resources in Viva. * Plenty of time built in for practice - almost all double page spreads are allocated two weeks. * This means that some units are missed out. For example, Units 1.4 and 1.5 are missed out in half term 1, but integrated into the revision stage in half term 6. * Half term 6 revisits one module per week, making use of the excellent 'Skills' units at the end of each module. * Modules 1-5 are covered * There is a bit of jargon in the scheme: - HPA (high prior attainment = very strong students) - Stamp - we mark students' work twice per half term, so when you see 'Stamp #1' or Stamp #2', that's what it means! - PC1, PC2, PC3 etc - stands for Progress Check. This is what we call our SIMS reporting.

GCSE French student revision workbook (Week 1 - Friends, family, relationships and technology)

(1)
We gave this to our Year 10 students to provide structured revision support for their forthcoming mocks. We’ve found that our students need increasing amounts of support if they are to avoid the ‘staring at a book’ technique! This workbook provides daily exercises students must complete to revise actively and in time for the mocks. The plan is that they do these exercises at home, bringing in their booklets each week to show that they are actively engaging with their revision. Although we’re using Kerboodle’s assessment resources for Units 1 and 2, the language and skills are generic enough to suit all. As we’re doing the speaking mocks in June, this workbook contains activities that specifically target Listening, Reading and Writing. Although much of this would be relevant for Speaking, this skill is not addressed specifically . Subsequent workbooks will be added weekly and will cover Units 3-8 (free time, festivals, home and area, social issues, global issues and travel & tourism. In general terms, the workbook contains: Many translations out of and into French Match-ups to broaden vocabulary and develop problem-solving skills Real hand-holding on writing the 40-word essay Student-friendly adaptations of AQA’s 40-word essay criteria so they learn how to asses their own work Guidance on how to extend the 40-word essay to 90 words by adding detail and opinions Student-friendly versions of AQA’s 90-word essay criteria These are the instructions I give our reprographics colleague to turn it into a booklet : ‘Please print 30 A4 booklets (A3 paper folded to A4 and stapled)’

My mistake, but I've kept it in there in case you finish early and could do with more! * I'll be making Kahoots and Quizlets as the year progresses, so it's worth searching StPaulsMiltonKeynes (www.quizlet.com) and MrsWilsonBavarde (www.getkahoot.it). We already have quite a bit on these sites.

Year 7 German - School subjects

(0)
At least a week’s worth of work geared to building students’ confidence in asking and answering questions about school subjects. The questions and answers have been inspired by Pearson’s KS3 and KS4 assessments along with AQA’s specimen material. We’ve been trialling a new approach following student voice interviews. We are now introducing students to new language through a mixture of reading, listening and translation into English before moving on to speaking. Since taking this approach, we’ve seen students’ willingness to speak shoot up, as have their speaking grades. A pleasant surprise! This PowerPoint and workbook set is good to go. The notes pages on the first slide of the PowerPoint provide information about resources along with an overview of the lesson. Subsequent slides contain additional tips. The PowerPoint and ‘8 questions-8 opinions’ workbook are designed to be used together in the lesson, whereas the ‘Key questions for this chapter’ workbook is for homework. As students study a unit in class, they complete that section at home.

Example: Single lesson - Teach weather; practise using Ex. 1, Page 14; practise pronunciation using Ex. 3 Page 14; memory game to embed.

Every homework contains specific instructions and a link to Quizlet tailor-made by the author. These can be saved as links on your VLE. Teaching is centred around specific questions which could, in a few years, be used in the General Conversation of the GCSE speaking exam. Also contains homework geared to promoting spontaneous opinions that could be readily produced in any topic.

Lesson overview and advice on how to print resources is provided in the notes pages. Activities are: match advice with reasons/translate Fr-En and then back again (in a booklet)/write as much as you can from memory. There's probably 1.5 hours' worth of lesson here.

Closely aligned to Kerboodle/OUP GCSE French 9-1 foundation text book - if you aren't a subscriber, or don't have the text book and audio, there will be some activities you won't be able to do (eg. working on transcripts and setting homework). This is for a Year 9 French class, with many students having special needs. If you have students who struggle to remember language, this series of lessons contains lots of practice activities that ultimately help students a) organise what they've learnt into a script, b) recognise, ask and answer questions such as 'What's your name?', 'Do you have any brothers and sisters?' and 'How old are they?' and c) do all of this with decreasing reliance on support materials. Because there's so much practice, these lessons could suit younger students who are new to French. There's a lesson overview in the notes page of Slide 1 and then further tips in the notes section of subsequent slides. I buy my buzzers from Classroom Resources, who sell on Amazon. These are one of my best investments - students in every year love playing the game, including Year 13!

Ultimately, the aim is to help them avoid falling into traps in exams and assessments.

This shows students how complexity can be achieved by adding different elements such as reflexive pronouns, separable verbs and time phrases. We had quite a lot of fun with this, despite me taking a risk when introducing the lesson as one that would be possibly boring or complicated, so we had to keep tough and help each other through it. As it turned out, we had a lot of fun asking each other how we were coping and whether we wanted to throw ourselves under a train yet. Worth a try if you are, as I was, dreading teaching this.
