Simply a template for a Diamond Nine activity!

I use this as a starter activity. Without showing this slide or telling pupils what they will be doing, ask them to write 5 words from the topic they did last lesson. Don’t mention anything about points, etc. After they’ve written the words, show them this slide and tell them to award the points for each letter of each word and then a total for all words. If you want to, tell them (for example) that each accent doubles the value of its letter. It’s a simple and competitive activity.

You could either use this yourself, or get pupils to use it themselves for revision.

Very simply, a template for pupils to use to write about a week. They write the text in the lower box and draw a picture in the bigger box.

It's exactly that! A dominoes template for you to add vocab/images and then cut out for pupils to use.

Throughout a lesson, pupils could fill in what they are learning into the outline of a brain. Great way to show progression.

This is a list of quotes from famous and successful people in history who failed their way to the top. I have this on display in my classroom and regularly refer to it when encouraging learning from mistakes.

As pupils go down the slope, they start with a sentence starter and make the sentence longer and longer as they go.

Quite simply, a list of letters (including accented ones) and their corresponding number, so you can do 'crack the code' activities in class.

Posters to remind pupils to regularly ‘think, pair, square, share’ their ideas.

I sometimes use letter shapes as a starter activity. Use the shapes on the sheet instead of the letters themselves. You could leave accents above letters as they are, or use the shapes for those as well.

These visual timers range from 10 seconds to 10 minutes. Simply click to start!

At the end of a lesson, or series of lessons, pupils stick this bright triangle in their books. They fill in the relevant section, stating what they know, don’t understand, etc.

The writing wheel is designed as a support for pupils' writing, especially in a foreign language, which is one of the most difficult skills. Add different elements of a paragraph into each circle, starting from the centre and working your way out. Then print out one or both slides (depending on how much you want pupils to write) as support for pupils’ writing.

Enter words from the current or a past topic into the grid. In pairs, pupils must use as many of the words when speaking as possible.

Give each student one set of these cards to use throughout lessons. As they go through the lesson, they display one of them on their desks for you to see as you walk around. This way, you can see who needs help, etc. Print the ‘I don’t get it at all’ on red. Print the ‘I think I get it’ on yellow. Print the ‘I get it’ on green.

This is a visual prompt for the popular activity of vocab tennis. It's simply a tennis ball being hit from side to side on a timer, so each pupil gets time to say something.

Put students' names on each slide and then press 'S' in presentation mode and then 'S' at any point to randomly choose a name.

Very simply, a triangle divided into three parts. Students write in whichever section they wish, according to what they have learned in the lesson.

Click on the squares to reveal part of a Tagxedo or Wordle that you’ve created. Pupils can say what they think the sentence is, then the other team could improve it.
