I am a former Head of Languages who now works part time teaching French and German. This allows me to write and publish high quality and sensibly priced teaching resources. My best selling resource on the TES is my primary French course, easyMFL, which is a complete Y3-Y6 French course with lesson plans, presentations and assessments. Unlike nearly every other publisher, I don't go in for expensive annual site licences - just buy once and get free updates as they become available.

Essential French phrases that pupils need to memorise to succeed in the controlled assessment tasks. I wrote this for my borderline students who were struggling with writing a whole draft and wanted to produce a B/C grade controlled assessment task without memorising whole scripts.

German crossword on the topic of sports and hobbies. The answers are on the second page! I made this for a Year 7 group to do after an assessment, but it may be appropriate further up the school as perhaps a starter activity to introduce the topic.

Python Y8 Project Lesson "FutureBot"

I made this as a Y8 consolidation lesson after they had learnt about if, elif, else, while and importing modules such as the random module. There is a Powerpoint to introduce the task, and then three differentiated worksheets where pupils create three different versions of a future predicting bot. My class needed two lessons to do all of the tasks. Copyright Information: All content is © Iain Coleman*.
