Effective listening practice is the key to achieving fluency in a foreign language. This Ppt. presentation ‘explodes’ authentic Greek conversations into accessible ‘sound bites’, each with an on-click transcript and a further on-click translation. Practise writing skills by typing in what you hear and check it against the transcript (this feature doesn’t function on Mac). The conversations are from the excellent Easy Greek street videos, free on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=easygreek. You can also get a full transcript and translation, as well as accompanying exercises, direct from Easy Greek; details are on the first slide of the Ppt. and under each video on YouTube. I would really appreciate feedback on this; it’s time-consuming to produce, but if effective it’s worth doing some more.

A set of challenging tasks for more able upper primary pupils and KS3. These tasks assess the children’s ability to read analogue time, and to convert analogue to digital time. They are then scaffolded in the use of a method by which they can calculate time spans using digital time readings. Eight tasks are arranged in increasing order of difficulty using 12 and 24 hour time. The tasks are designed to provide a grounding from which pupils can go on to explore the effectiveness of various mental strategies to quickly and accurately calculate more complex time spans. The worksheets can be filled in by hand or electronically on a PC/tablet. The clock hands can be re-directed by clicking on them twice and pulling the arrow-tip around to tailor your own tasks.

This is a problem solving activity in which children investigate how to work out a list of numbers in response to the criteria of a given mean, median and range.

These are PowerPoint whole class/group activities to develop and reinforce understanding of, and mental dexterity with, place value and larger numbers. The first is to check basic grasp of HTU.

Follow-up 6 digit and 9 digit resource packs will shortly be available to purchase.
