KS3 ITALIAN NUMBERS 0-31 CHALLENGE CARDS FREEBIE 12 differentiated challenge cards focusing on Italian Numbers 0-31. The cards are labelled A-L, so that you can use them together with the full set, which gives 48 cards in total. The full set of 36 differentiated challenge cards description is as follows:

KS3 ITALIAN NUMBERS 0-31 CHALLENGE CARDS really do help to create a lively language learning environment. Students can develop, embed, reinforce and refresh their knowledge of Italian numbers in a cooperative, communicative and interactive way, independently of the teacher. They have a bonus multi-skill focus on listening, speaking, pronunciation, reading and spelling. They’re great for helping students familiarize themselves with, and develop competence in, speaking, reading, writing and spelling longer words in Italian. The cards are useful not only when you’re focusing on Italian Numbers 0-31, but also as an all-year-round starter, plenary and general ‘pick-me-up’ activity, as the goal is not simply to learn how to count in Italian, but also to enjoy working with Italian, and to feel confident about doing so. The questions range in complexity and challenge in terms of language and calculation, though they are designed for advanced beginner Italian language learners, who will generally be more advanced in their maths skills.

The question card template enables students to apply their knowledge of language and arithmetic creatively and practically too - my students really enjoy putting questions together for each other. All the questions are in Italian, which really helps students develop language awareness skills, use their***prior learning to progress current learning***, and encouraging them to infer meaning from context.

FACTS ABOUT LANGUAGES BUNDLE #1

**MFL BACK TO SCHOOL ICE-BREAKER WORLD LANGUAGES FACTS FOR ALL MFL CLASSROOMS @ £1.90 EACH IN THE BUNDLE** This bundle combines two sets of 36 facts cards focusing on *world languages*, so 72 facts cards in total. They are a great whole-group learning activity at any time of the school year. They’re particularly useful as *ice-breakers in the back-to-school phase*, as it’s a very social activity, and really gets students up from their desks, walking around talking to each other. The information addresses *a very wide range of languages topics, from world history, history of language, varied fields within linguistics to global languages fact*s for example. The cards are designed for older students, as the facts do r*equire a certain level of world knowledge and language awareness, and particularly world geography*. I always screen a world map first, pointing out continents, countries, regions and territories and so on, because using the cards is also a great way of actually *learning about the world, its history, shifting geographical and political borders, migrating populations* and so on. I use the cards in various ways: for example, a really popular method is the ***walk and talk activity***, where students take a card each, walk around the classroom, exchanging facts - when they’ve shared the information on their card, students swap cards, and carry on walking — in this way, they encounter the same facts a couple of times, which really embeds knowledge. I tend to do this activity several times across the school year, following it up with an informal whole-group quiz, particularly when I feel that students need a break from more formal learning. I also use the cards as either ***entrance or exit cards*** - again, followed by a quick quiz at several points in the year - simply turn the language on the individual cards into a question format. This works really well when students quiz each other, which moves them away from teacher-led learning towards more independent and social learning. *I've included a range of my MFL freebies you may not have seen in my store.

ITALIAN ARE VERBS CONJUGATION PRACTICE #3

**KS3 ITALIAN KS4 ITALIAN GCSE ITALIAN A LEVEL ITALIAN ADVANCED ITALIAN ARE VERBS CONJUGATION PRACTICE 8 TENSES & WORKBOOKS @ £0.62 EACH IN THE BUNDLE** focusing on ***25 high-frequency Italian -ARE verbs***. My students really like this kind of grammar activity, as they like to work and learn independently, which is a successful way of varying teaching and learning methodologies - I've found it's really important to avoid predominantly teacher-led learning in the languages classroom. There are ***150 conjugations across 3 differentiated conjugation challenges in each workbook, 1,200 conjugations*** in total. I use these kinds of workbooks in lots of different ways: for practice during the introduction phase, for independent choice in class time, for home learning, for practice and revision during vacation and at return to class, and for cover lessons - they're really versatile, and ideal for ***KS3 Italian and KS4 Italian*** students who are getting to grips with conjugation in ***Italian***, building their verb vocabulary, and working with texts which include a range of tenses; then moving into ***KS5 Italian*** with more complex texts and language, including ***authentic resources***, with the ***pluperfect tense***, into ***advanced Italian A Level*** with the ***future perfect and conditional perfect tenses***. The workbooks ***focus on the mechanics of conjugation, rather than usage***, and I've found that when my students are able to provide the correct conjugation very quickly, and out of a specific context, they feel really confident that their conjugation skills are developing well. **The tenses are:** *present tense (presente) perfect tense (passato prossimo) imperfect tense (imperfetto) future tense (futuro semplice) conditional tense (condizionale, presente) pluperfect tense (trapassato prossimo) future perfect tense (futuro anteriore) conditional perfect tense (condizionale passato)* Grammar books are not consistent with grammatical terminology, so in this context, the ***conditional perfect is I would have done or I would have been*** for example - we often see this tense called the ***conditional past*** too. It’s definitely useful to remind students of a number of things when focusing on or revising tense and verb formation and conjugation. Students do often try to conflate what they know about conjugation in their first language, and the language they are learning. For example, with the ***conditional tense in Italian*** those with ***English as a first language*** frequently look for a word that is the equivalent of ***would***, until they familiarise themselves with the fact that the ***notion of conditional is indicated in the verb ending***. I see this a lot with the ***future tense*** too, and tend to introduce both tenses quite closely together. It's also easy to confuse the ***future tense endings with the conditional tense endings***, and targeted practice helps to address that really well. Though the workbook focuses solely on the correct conjugation of verbs, and does not look at word order in the context of full sentences, there are ***conjugation patterns*** that students can ***learn, recognise and apply***, ensuring that their ***spoken and written Italian*** is accurate, and that their ***understanding of Italian across the skills of listening, speaking, reading and writing*** is robust. **Each set is structured as follows:** ***Two alphabetical verb reference lists***: Italian-English and English-Italian. ***Three conjugation challenges***, each with 50 individual conjugations: **Conjugation Challenge 1**: each verb conjugated in Italian across a range of pronouns, with students writing the corresponding English verb conjugation. **Conjugation Challenge 2**: gives the infinitive of each verb in Italian, specifying the target pronoun. Students write the corresponding verb conjugation in Italian. **Conjugation Challenge 3**: students write the corresponding Italian verb conjugation, and its infinitive, from an English prompt. ***Notes and Next Steps*** template which students visit regularly - it really does encourage them to think about where they are now, how confident they feel, and what they might need to work on a little more to be absolutely sure of their conjugation skills. We also note down any new verbs we meet, which enables students to build up their own verb vocabulary bank. It's a great tool to guide and inform whole-group discussion about learning and progress in general, which is a really successful and popular activity. ***answer key***: 6-page booklet which is absolutely essential in my view. Answer keys help students develop more independence in their learning, and provide them with an additional opportunity to engage with language and grammar. They also genuinely enjoy correcting their own - and particularly each others' - work. ***Try this free samler to assess whether this kind of activity would work well for your students:*** **ITALIAN QUICK CONJUGATION PRACTICE SAMPLER** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/italian-conjugation-practice-sampler-12359601](http://) ***Currently in my store I have Italian conjugation workbooks for a range of verb groups featuring the following tenses:*** * present tense (presente) * perfect tense (passato prossimo) * imperfect tense (imperfetto) * future tense (futuro semplice) * conditional tense (condizionale, presente) * pluperfect tense (trapassato prossimo) * future perfect tense (futuro anteriore) * conditional perfect tense (condizionale passato) ***Have a browse in my store for more Italian grammar activities, and a wide range of Italian language teaching and learning materials, with special offer bunles, resource boxes, and lots of freebies too - I've included a couple in this bundle for you to try.*** *The product is non-editable in a zipped format.
