Starter and recap point of environmental solutions, routine verb test, moving on to new vocabulary introduced via a speaking game - students must research new key terms before playing the ‘trap doors’ game. This slide should be printed off for students to make annotations.
Grammar point to be elicited from speaking activity: if clause ( foundation) + ext slide for higher ( higher order opinions with subjunctive).
Writing task modelled on the exam task types and differentiated: foundation writing out 4 full sentences in relation to a picture and higher 90 word task. Plenary activity encourages peer feedback, very student friendly yet focused on exam assessment criteria of word count, bullet point coverage, quality and accuracy of message.
A complete set of general conversation questions to help prepare students for both their oral and written exam. This document follows the topic structure for AQA but it is easily editable and can be easily adapted! The questions are divided by theme and subtopics within the theme! There are also additional questions for higher. All questions are tailored to ensure the candidate uses the full tense range, as well as ‘complex phrases’ to access the higher grades. Each question is followed by its English translation. In addition, there is also a PowerPoint Presentation to show the students the structure of the general covnersation questions ( applicable to both speaking and writing exam prep!), as well as a slide with tips to ‘boost up your grade’!
