I am a languages teacher who has, over the years, created many resources for teaching French and Spanish. I also produce resources in other languages: German, Italian, and more recently, Greek. Here I am sharing a few of these, in the hope it makes a hard-working teacher's life a little easier at a time when they need something quickly. Often adding more resources, so watch this space!

French GCSE 150-word writing mat - Higher - any exam board

(0)
A writing mat to support the requirements of the 150 word writing task as part of French Higher GCSE. It includes present and past tense opinions and contrasting opinions, direct object pronouns, adverbs, subjunctive phrases, comparatives and superlatives, idioms, and a checklist for items to include in this task. Students report to me that it is also very useful for the speaking exam - quick revision of it prior to taking speaking tests leads to more variety in their language and higher marks as a result. I also have similar mats for Italian, German and Spanish available in my shop. #frenchwritingmat #frenchhigherGCSE #frenchwriting #frenchGCSE
