Practise listening, pronunciation, vocabulary and sentence construction with ‘Listen and Repeat’ using some of the best material available on the internet for learning Greek. The Ppt presentation has audio, transcript and translation in bite-size units that can be activated and repeated at your own speed. The portable MP3 audio file has built-in pauses to repeat the phrases, and there is PDF transcript and translation. Links to the source material are provided with each unit, and further material such as vocabulary and grammar exercises can often be found there. The level of this unit is lower intermediate. Further units will span the intermediate levels. If you choose to download this resource, I would be very grateful for constructive feedback. I feel very strongly that ‘Listen and Repeat’ is the most powerful tool to develop foreign language skills, especially for people who find languages particularly daunting, and I hope to encourage the production of more material of this type from the language teaching community.

In tackling 11+ papers even very able candidates will fall short if they don’t have speed strategies. Knowledge of and familiarity with square numbers is essential. These questions, in Word or PDF, provide practice in recall.

In the 11+ papers even very able candidates will fall short if they can’t use speed strategies. Knowledge and familiarity with divisibility rules for x10, 5, 2, 3, 6, 9 and 4 are essential. These questions, in Word or PDF, test the rules that incorporate using the sum of the digits.

Often found in 11+exam papers, otherwise straightforward four-rules number crunches will be ‘shuffled’ to test the candidate’s depth of understanding. These questions also provide reinforcement of times table recall.

Effective listening practice is the key to achieving fluency in a foreign language. This Ppt. presentation ‘explodes’ authentic Greek conversations into accessible ‘sound bites’, each with an on-click transcript and a further on-click translation. Practise writing skills by typing in what you hear and check it against the transcript (this feature doesn’t function on Mac). The conversations are from the excellent Easy Greek street videos, free on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=easygreek. You can also get a full transcript and translation, as well as accompanying exercises, direct from Easy Greek; details are on the first slide of the Ppt. and under each video on YouTube. I would really appreciate feedback on this; it’s time-consuming to produce, but if effective it’s worth doing some more.

There are just forty-nine number facts to commit to memory in a structured and well-resourced ten-minute session each day during the Autumn term. This is because every fact is reversible, and many (x1 plus x10 and x11 up to 100) are quickly accessible without the need for rote recall. All the times tables are achievable by Christmas. Along with the schedule, the first week’s resources are Included, comprising a fact sheet, a daily presentation and class-marked worksheet, and a weekly assessment sheet. The worksheets and assessment can be completed either by hand or electronically on a PC/tablet. Resource packs for the remaining ten weeks can be purchased individually or as a bundle.

A set of challenging tasks for more able upper primary pupils and KS3. These tasks assess the children’s ability to read analogue time, and to convert analogue to digital time. They are then scaffolded in the use of a method by which they can calculate time spans using digital time readings. Eight tasks are arranged in increasing order of difficulty using 12 and 24 hour time. The tasks are designed to provide a grounding from which pupils can go on to explore the effectiveness of various mental strategies to quickly and accurately calculate more complex time spans. The worksheets can be filled in by hand or electronically on a PC/tablet. The clock hands can be re-directed by clicking on them twice and pulling the arrow-tip around to tailor your own tasks.
