French - 'How to improve your work'

French - 'How to improve your work'

(0)
My students stick this sheet into their exercise books at the start of the year for reference throughout the year. It has literacy codes on it, along with some phrases to help the students speak spontaneously (they tally every time they use one of the phrases). Alongside the literacy codes used in students’ work, there are columns for me to tick each term, which means students have to focus on their weakest area (spelling, punctuation, etc.). The ‘STAC’ referred to on the sheet is an assessed piece of work done each term, but this can be deleted/edited as you please.

This bundle of resources includes a PPT to introduce the new French A level from AQA, followed by an activity using a popular song in the French charts. There is also a worksheet to go with the song activity. The booklet is designed to accompany the PPT and includes information about the new A level in French from AQA. Remember, you may need to edit such information as the number of teachers and lessons. This is on page 2. There is reference to resources on Kerboodle as well, which of course will not be relevant to your students, so you may wish to delete/edit these parts.
