Consolidation of Nazi Power

Consolidation of Nazi Power

(0)
This lesson is about the Consolidation of the Nazi power. It includes some exam practice, Quiz-Quiz trade activity (see worksheet attached) and an Ipad research activity with a true/ false plenary. In my experience, when you cannot book the Ipads or any other resources, you can have a look for a useful information on the internet and print a page for students to find the answers.

Finally, I ended this lesson with an Oracy task designed to discus the quote by Adolf Hitler. I have also included the Team Challenge answers in the end of the presentation.

Nazi policies to address economic problems

(0)
This lesson is about The lesson includes a settler, and exam question (WJEC, as usually), All Speak Round Robin activity of the economic problems in Nazi Germany and an I-pad research slide on the ways HIler tried to address the economic problems of the country at the time. As per my previous lessons, it is very easy to adapt 'I-pad research' slide to your needs by providing them with a reference to the pages in the book or by printing some summary out (I like using BBC Bitesize). I then finished the lesson with a 'Keywords' plenary which you can organise however you prefer.

This lesson includes a settler, WJEC- style exam question, Peer-Assessment, Ipad Research slide with instructions, a source worksheet (available for free as well because I think I could have used someone's worksheet to create this one), a plenary to revise some dates / events (I used BBC bitesize to prepare this one) a food for thought slide. As I have said above, I am also including the worksheet in my free resources.

Opinions and reasons - Spanish- AQA (new spec) GCSE Listening (Section A) practice

(0)
This is a lesson on opinions and reasons in relation to school facilities and extra-curricular activities for a GCSE Spanish class. The lesson includes a differentiated starter activity to practice translation skills followed by a mini-test on school subjects vocabulary. The new practice phonics when pronouncing new words (see new vocabulary attached - quizlet) followed by the quizlet activity itself. Students are to choose what quizlet task they want to do based on their level. Then I have included a set of slides to introduce the best way (in my opinion) to approach a listening task. I have wrote the text of the listening myself, based on the New Aqa spec assessment specimen (I read it aloud but you may as well record it). There is also a Rally Coach activity ti consolidate the knowledge of the new vocabulary after they looked at the task. I have then provided them with a hint on how to find an answer by giving them a text of what was said. Finally, they note the answers and write a self/peer assessment. Please note that the penultimate slide is the handout in case you want to make it easier for the students. Enjoy!

Opinions on studies - Spanish- AQA (new spec) GCSE Reading (Section A) practice

(0)
This is a lesson on opinions ad subjects for a GCSE Spanish class. The lesson includes a literacy (scramble style) starter, a Mini-test on present tense verbs conjugation ( I often give these ones), a quizlet on the words that would be used in the reading task, and a reading task itself. I am trying to teach them how to approach these tasks in the most effective way so they underline the words they know and find out the ones they do not. I wrote the text myself on the basis of the one from the specimen materials for it to have a similar structure to the one they will see in the exam. Finally they self-assess their work (and learn new words!). I also attach a quiz quiz trade that I have prepared for the end of the lesson to revise the previously learned grammar and vocabulary.

This is the lesson for my GSCE Spanish class about activities in town. It includes a range of activities to satisfy the school policies, such as Independent Learning, Kagan, differentiation and engagement. I have included a short test to check vocabulary and a quizlet to learn some new words that they would use when completing the Reading activity (AQA new specification Reading Section C).

Please note that VCOP mat refers to reasons, opinions and the tenses. I attach two versions of the same lesson as one I used with older pupils and another one was amended for the observation (I got 1c/2a feedback!)

This is a lesson is about a typical school day for a GCSE Spanish class. The lesson includes a literacy (scramble style) starter, a tongue twister activity (to practise pronunciation of the 'go' sound), a pronunciation activity and a quizlet on the words that would be used in the reading task, a rally couach mini-plenary (it goes after I first show them the text so they realise they would really need to remember the words) and a reading task itself. I am trying to teach them how to approach these tasks in the most effective way so they underline the words they know and find out the ones they do not. I wrote the text myself on the basis of the one from the specimen materials for it to have a similar structure to the one they will see in the exam. I have also included a slide on how to use VES application to find and to correctly translate a verb which is not written in infinitive and a mini-plenary for them to practise using the same. You can introduce some competition in here if you wish. Finally they self-assess their work and compete to translate / provide a definition of the words in the plenary task that they have learned in previous lessons.

Research project (Motivational triggers) for KS3/KS4 Spanish AQA - Christmas project

(0)
This is a research project lesson (or two lessons really) that I created for my KS3/lower KS4 Spanish students. The idea is to promote independent learning via research.Students have to research information about Spanish Christmas, compare the traditions with the ones in Britain and to create a presentation / poster. Students decide on the task, the roles and start researching relevant information using their iPads (one of the students needs to summarise the information that others found). There is also a designer and an analyst (usually the most attaining student in the group. Enjoy!

Healthy Schools week PSHE - La comida sana - KS4 Spanish AQA new spec

(0)
This is the lesson I have prepared for the healthy schools week for my year 9 and 10 Spanish GCSE classes. It consists of starter, tongue twister to practice phonics, a mini-test on adjectival agreement and articles (I love those surprised faces when they see the word 'TEST'), quizlet task to learn / revise vocabulary on food, quizlet live to consolidate the same, AQA Listening Section A task with explanation on tips and strategies (my usual walk-through, I usually read it out myself) with self-assessment. It is followed by the Reading Section A task on obesity case in Mexico (from EL PAIS online journal) with the same walk-through and Oracy task (slide 20). I would usually read the text and pause for the students to say the word I was about to read so they actually practice phonics and follow the text. For the end I asked them to prepare a poster for the year 6 students that are coming to school for few days to look around. There are also some mini-plenaries here and there. The origin of the Listening task is VIVA AQA Higher GCSE book. Buena suerte!

Your Christmas Day - KS3/KS4 Spanish (AQA)- Observation 1c/2a

This is a Christmas lesson that I created for my higher KS3/KS4 Spanish students and mainly for my lesson observation. The idea is to have some fun and to do some writing as well! The lesson starts with a friendly - easy starter and pronunciation slide to learn how to pronounce some Christmas / winter related words. Then we move on to a quizlet task to learn / revise some X-mas vocabulary and Rally Coach activity to check whether we remember the words. I have then included a conjugation activity with the Christmas verbs (you need some dices!) followed by a competitive translation activity (make sire you have similar ability students working together). The students then use a trap door structure (table) to speak about their Christmas day and then I tell them about my Christmas day in a similar manner as suggested by previous activity. I first use pictures only and then show them the model answer and the grammar success criteria. After they write down their responses we move on to playing quizlet live and Hangman. Enjoy!
