Presentation designed to give students the necessary language to analyse and describe the specifically cinematographic elements of the film (codes) such as lighting, camera angles, editing, use of subjective camera etc.
Resources from a North Somerset workshop on MFL I ran with Karen Canham. The Powerpoint could easily be adapted for Departmental CPD. The first Word doc contains questions for the card sort on the Powerpoint, but could be done as a diamond nine. The second Word doc contains some work to mark. (!)
Materials to accompany the film 'Die Fetten Jahre Sind Vorbei'. A chronological sequence of stills on Powerpoint provides a focus for summary of the plot and / or discussion. Ideas can then be written up on the storyboard.
Summarising activity for students to complete after watching this gripping film about an attempt by German and Austrian climbers to scale the North Face of the Eiger in the 1930s. Students cut up the jumbled summary of the plot and re-arrange the cards in order to re-create the storyline.
Solution enclosed on separate Word doc.
2 interactive tools developed for the Futurelab Enquiring Minds project. The first is to help pupils weigh up the pros and cons of different research methods. The second is to clarify the meanings of key terms such as 'evidence' and 'proof'. Will work on IW or PC. Also, a card-sort to help pupils understand the enquiry process.
Three interactive gap-fill exercises, each one corresponding to one of the three repeating phases of the film. The three completed exercises will constitute a summary of the action. Will work on PC or IW.
Another variation on something I uploaded a couple of weeks ago. The first slide acts as a homepage for the activity. Students pick a number and are then hyperlinked to an image. They should then use the mini-toolkit on the slide to generate a sentence..
This interactive activity contains 20 World Cup participants past and present to match to different factoids. However, each time you open it, it will randomly select 10 countries from the list of 20, and will shuffle the sequence. It will almost never never be the same quiz twice. If you use it in a computer suite, each student in effect gets a different quiz. Will work on PC or IW.
Variation on something I uploaded a couple of weeks ago. The first slide acts as a homepage for the activity. Students pick a number and are then hyperlinked to an image and a sentence containing'Er / sie ist' plus an adverb. Students have to complete the sentence.
Simple table featuring regular -er, -ir and -re verbs in the first person singular in three tenses. Designed to help weaker students analyse and annotate the patterns. Can be blown up as a poster and / or printed as a hand-out. I've also put the display on a ppt.
Text in which teenagers list the contents of their school bags. The text is followed by a set of questions in English, an anaysis of the singular and plural forms of the school items mentioned in the text, and a writing task.
Plenary tool to help students reflect on the level of thinking that has been required of them in the lesson. The first slide acts as a homepage for the plenary. Ask students to choose a number. Click on one of the numbers and it will hyperlink you to a plenary question. Click on the 'back' button to return to the homepage.
