HUNDREDS OF ACTIVITIES TO COVER ALL 12 TOPICS IN GREAT DETAIL -
I’ve attached some screenshots to give you an idea of the range of activities. Lots of differentiated reading/listening/writing/grammar tasks.
I have covered as much vocabulary as possible (including the majority of the vocab lists in the textbook) and all key grammar points including MA grammar such as subjunctive/ personal a.
Theme 1 (ks3 revision/ family/ relationships/ free time/ customs and festivals) - over 45 activities
Theme 2 (home and local area/ social and global issues including healthy eating/ travel and tourism) - over 85 activities
Theme 3 (studies/ life at school/ post 16 options and future careers) - over 85 activities
Key grammar - all 8 tenses, prepositions, personal a and 3rd person opinions, regular and irregular verbs practice in all tenses including irregular past participles, questions, connectives, time expressions, using different tenses simultaneously.
Writing/ Speaking/ Creation structure tasks to improve fluency when developing ideas.
**These are all original resources that have been developed over the course of the year and transformed into a4 booklets for my current year 11s. **
Could be used for remote learning, homeworks, or adapted to support lessons.
Each unit consolidates key vocab, gives students several opportunities to practice the vocabulary and grammar in different contexts - and most importantly the activities vary greatly - meaning they’re not super dry! I’ve also taken extra care to ensure all resources are attractive and easily accessible as I teach a mixed ability year 11 class (targets 3-8)
Very well developed lessons with support and stretch and challenge integrated throughout
includes:
*Mock speaking exam with photo card and general conversation questions - NO ROLE PLAY
* 2 lessons on Speaking skills which includes format of the exam, example role play/ photo card, Q and A practise, help with You form verbs and linking questions and answers
* 'Quieres ser voluntario? Introduction to social issues topic with a great range of topical vocab taken straight from the AQA spec
* Conditional tense breakdown with reference to SI clauses and other HL vocab
* Tener expressions (e.g. tener sed) in all tenses
* Diet/ healthy/ unhealthy living
* Comparing diets (yours VS others, present and past)
* Preterit VS imperfect
* 3rd person opinions singular/plural - multi tense
* Listening skills
6 pages - differentiated by outcome
booklet is divided into sections, each one harder than the last
Section 1 - starts with basic vocab/ connectives and focuses on correct, short sentences
Section 2 - looks at opinions and reasons, revises key adjectives
Section 3 - looks at 4 tenses (regular present, simple future, preterite, conditional) in detail with time expressions for each tense
final activity brings everything together and has 4 levels of challenge
Has been very effective with 2 classes, both mixed ability and a set 2/5
Full half term (10 PPTs but some will take more than one lesson)
made to support the AQA GCSE textbooks, foundation (only 1 lesson) mostly higher but differentiated as I teach mixed ability groups. FOR SOME SLIDES - IT REFERS TO AN ACTIVITY IN THE TEXTBOOK
Huge focus on metacognition/ being reflective and independent learners throughout
