<p>Having analysed with my students the AQA 90 words essay requirement, my higher candidates asked whether I could have a closer look at the AQA 150 words essay to help them further.<br /> Using the AQA specimen papers and the Appendix 1 guidance from the 2018 markscheme, please find a star technique for content and what constitutes range of language.<br /> This resource contains:</p> <ul> <li>ppt</li> <li>worksheet with tasks, model answers, translation of model answers, appendix 1 and markscheme</li> <li>extension at the bottom of the sheet (2018 tasks / model answers by exam board)<br /> Would love to hear feedback!

<p>I have used the grade boundaries from the 2018 and 2019 exams with AQA French, Spanish and German to create an excel document that will convert students’results into grades. I will be using it for my Y11 mocks.<br /> Enter students total grades for each skill (listening, speaking, reading and writing).<br /> The total will be added up automatically and converted to the grade they would have received in the 2018 exam. I have taken into account the weighing of each skill so that they have an equal weighing.<br /> The grade boundaries are slightly different for each language and were sourced from here:<br /> <a href="https://filestore.aqa.org.uk/over/stat_pdf/AQA-GCSE-GDE-BDY-JUN-2019.PDF" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://filestore.aqa.org.uk/over/stat_pdf/AQA-GCSE-GDE-BDY-JUN-2019.PDF</a><br /> <a href="https://filestore.aqa.org.uk/over/stat_pdf/AQA-GCSE-RF-GDE-BDY-JUN-2018.PDF" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://filestore.aqa.org.uk/over/stat_pdf/AQA-GCSE-RF-GDE-BDY-JUN-2018.PDF</a></p> <p>Please review if you find it useful ;)</p>

<p>An updated ppt to use with Y9 about why study a language at GCSE. I compiled some existing ppt from the TES, resources from the net and the latest research from the British Council regarding the usefulness of Languages post-Brexit.<br /> There are quite a lot of youtube links, so you might not want to use all of them.</p>

<p>This is aimed at y11 parents.<br /> Parents received a paper and digital copy. Many thanks to PN who inspired me with his German version!</p>

<p>I used this map as a starter task as part of the Unit 5 from the AQA GCSE theme 2 topic on my region/ a complement to kerboodle textbook page <a href="http://90.It" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">90.It</a> could also be used for any explanation about France and its geography. To make it more interactive, use the following link <a href="https://education.francetv.fr/matiere/geographie/cm1/jeu/les-regions-de-france" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://education.francetv.fr/matiere/geographie/cm1/jeu/les-regions-de-france</a>. We’ve discussed the DOM-TOM in a previous lesson using another worksheet I have already published but reattached here for convenience. We also listened to music by La Compagnie Créole and Zouk Machine.<br /> The 1jour, 1 question video is about the old regions but can be used as an extension.<br /> The maps are sourced from the internet and are credited on the sheet.</p>

<p>This resource includes a couple of different activities:<br /> A extended trap door on my town in French<br /> The translation in English in big strips so that students can put the translation in the right order.<br /> A small copy of the translation with differentiated tasks to work out what makes it a WAGOLL before students go on and write their own.</p>

<p>A worksheet on le tabac - includes a listening task based on a French anti-smoking campaign and an independent short reading task based on the price of cigarette in 2018 / infographics on who a typical smoker is in France.<br /> Ideal as an extended starter / part of a larger lesson on smoking.</p>

<p>This is a powerpoint presentation using some youtube videos to present an area of France - some basic geography, a focus on the song “Sur le Pont d’Avignon” giving it a modern twist by asking students to add what 2018 dancers they would have on the bridge. Requires dictionaries.<br /> The A4 pdf document was sourced on the internet.</p>

Used with Y7 as a trapdoor exercise to embed speaking about a family member at length. Then I used the activity as a model - WAGOL (what a good one looks like). <br /> After having highlighted the correction (ppt) on their sheets, students use it as a writing frame for their own descriptions. Also comes with a translation.

<p>Written task aimed at Y8 to showcase use of perfect tense. The Core sheet comes for Rachel Hawkes’s online resources.</p>
