I used this for an interview ( and got the job ) lesson , I still use it with y9, y8 top sets and for revision in ks4 if needed

sentence building and the diffrence between faire and jouer

I designed this power Point for a fairly bright group of year 11 whom I thought could benfit more from working in pairs or in group using this power point as a starter. I used the verbs from Expo Higher as a bse in order to dvelop awareness of how to improve a conversation and opinions. The first slide is a starter activity to make the students reflect on their knowledge of verbs and phrases from a listening activity completed during the previous lesson.

To consolidate Fou de musique and Fête de la musique from Studio 3. Revision of perfect tense and complex sentences and word order issues in French. Lots of practice on verbs , past tense in particular, practice on complex structures using ’ after having + past participles ’ and also a strong focus on French word order when talking about types of music, types of concerts etc… The text can be exploited in may ways, I have written myself, used a class and paired reading, translations etc…

Based on the module Planet Facebook in Studio 3. I have created a slightly longer text on use of social networking sites. This helps learning and understanding of regular verbs and gives opportunities to learn and identify structures for use of own vocabulary when writing and speaking about this topic.

Simple resource to support students in understanding how to build this tense. The document can be easily adapted to the level of the students using this resource. I have left some clues for the conjugations of to have and to be spellings, but they can just be removed for further challenge.

This resource fits in any module, covering the topic of jobs and plans for the future for KS4 French, but could also be used for students in higher ability groups in Year 9. It contains a Power point and a full lesson plan, as well as resources for differentiation which can be tweaked and amended as necessary. The lesson was observed and judged ' outstanding' so I hope it is useful to colleagues.

You need to access 1 Jour 1 actu website first. Visit Informations animées from there, clip from 03/12/2015. Use the attached pack of resources with the clip. Quite humorous vocabulary but not rude and will certainly will keep you class engaged and teach them much relevant vocabulary on the topic of protecting the planet. You may use a follow up to my free resource on the COP 21.

The ideas for consolidation are on the very last slide. They contain tips on activities I have tried with all ages and ranges of abilities and some have a competitive elements. The first slides explain the pitfalls of the word order and try to pre-empt errors such as word order, questions that should not be asked and issues of little words that often get forgotten about as students become concerned with handling more complex language.

This text is used as support for a running translation. The text can be studied in details either before or after the running translation. Sheet 2 has a series of sentences from the text. They are meant to be cut out and laminated and given to students who work in groups ( 4 works well ). They find the sentence, must bring it to the teacher, with all spellings and grammar correct. Any errors, the slip gets returned for students to think again, if correct, the students receive the next slip etc.. The first team to have translated the full set wins. Extension : ask students to extend on the phrases they translated. Good for spellings, grammar and memory

To be able to master a regular verb using all the pronouns to prepare to write an extended description of use of social media. Can be used in class or as a learning homeowrk

Extended reading passage to support students identifying and using the construction with Il faut + infinitive. Translations activities and extensions provided to get familiar with IL FAUT in other tenses. The error correcting activities proved useful too.

This will be the first part of the lessons on the endings for the present form for regular and irregular verbs in French. This contains a power point to be used as a guide and lesson plan, a starter sheet : students can use it and fill it in either looking at the clues at the back or they may choose to ignore the clues. There are opportunities for assessment highlighted on the power point, using mini whiteboards and I have also highlighted opportunities for questioning on some slides. The text the students will use to re write using the they form is from a textbook ( Studio ) so I have not used it but it can be created. The attached text called mes copains will support students for a class reading activities and there are two grids on the power point to help questioning. I have now updated this mini pack by adding the full lesson plan with differentiation highlighted on it if you wanted to use it or integrate in your own SOLS.

Contains all the topics studied in the Autumn Term ( Ma vie sociale d'ado ) with learning objectives, outcomes, suggested activities and suggestions for differentiation and homework.

Can be used to develop confidence in reading and writing extended passages but can be used to support speaking , especially asking questions using the 'du' subject with 'st' ending. I normally aim at having all students to have memorised the main basic questions in German using correct pronunciation and verb endings very early on and this presentation has worked really well so far with my German beginners (Y7 ).

This will be suitable for High ability students at KS3 and KS4 to develop higher level complex structures, reading skills, speaking skills and memory. This suits the topic of school and education and I have attached a list of suggested activities, all of them I have used myself and have led to some rather creative writing and spoken passages from my year 10.

I have highlighted idioms in red and added subjunctives. Suitable for controlled assessments at GCSE but may be used at KS3 too on the topic of holidays. used it for learning and vocabulary tests, hence the numbers to make it easier to read and go through in lessons and set learning homework in sections

designed to support KS4 students, can be used as a checklist to check work is up to standards and target grades. I have used it as a learning homework too.

This is a resource that I created to support my year 10 through the use of DOP. They are used to ' dodgy English' and I am sharing this as they enjoyed the activities and gave me good feedback ( it has helped them massively and they are now confident with those ), especially the translation which they used a learning and consolidating activity. I have in my free resources a Power Point you can also access to teach the initial stages and the words for the needed DOPS for these activities.

Lots of slides and two worksheets to build confidence on these two tenses for A* at GCSE and beyond. Highlighted opportunities on PPT for mini whiteboard practice, pair and share to help assess learning. two worksheets with grammar activities, French style!
