Two relatively straightforward grammar exercises, practising the use of 'weil&' and &';obwohl' in the context of school subjects and option choices.

Four teenage blogs about daily / routine & the length of the school day, followed by a reminder about seperable verbs, True/False questions in English, two 'find the phrase&' activities, a partner activity, and some written work ... PS typos fixed!

A number of resources revolving around the question of what you do when you find things that don't belong to you. The first text features a selection of blogs on the subject followed by comprehension questions in English and a 'Find the phrase' activity. There is then a Powerpoint with discussion questions and a toolkit to help students formulate answers.

Short texts in which teenagers say which options they have chosen and why. Texts are followed by comprehension questions in English, a 'find the phrase&' exercise, a manipulation exercise, a speaking activity and a short writing activity. Also includes brief revision of the present tense and word order after &';weil'.

Powerpoint with questions and images to promote discussion about health and fitness. The clock in the corner of each slide is to encourage the students to keep talking for 60 seconds if they can. The questions could also be used to help structure written work. PS Typo fixed

Text describing the situation in Germany with regards to young people's involvement with illicit substances and excessive drinking. The text is followed by questions in English, a find the phrase exercise, a manipulation exercise based on equivalent stats from the UK, and finally a challenging extended writing task. This was produced for an able KS4 group but could easily be upgraded to AS material.

Playscript. An unlikely dialogue in which Belletrix Lestrange from Harry Potter and Bella from Twighlight discuss their differing approaches to health and fitness. A disagreement ensues about Voldemort's nose. Having practised and performed the playscript, students could (i) devise a dialogue in which two different fictional characters discuss the issue of health and fitness or (ii) devise a dialogue in which Bella and Belletrix take on a different GCSE topic.

Improbable dialogue in which Bella from Twighlight and Belletrix Lestrange from Harry Potter compare and contrast the different routines of vampires and wizards. Embedded in the text is the complete paradigm of se coucher. The dialogue is followed by a 'Find the Phrase' exercise focussing on the reflexive verb 'se coucher', practice in writing the paradigms of other reflexives, and a gap-fill exercise in which students must supply the correct reflexive pronouns.

Fairly challenging text about the history of one of the oldest olympic disciplines. The gaps are all verbs in a variety of tenses. Will work on PC or IW.

Interactive drag and drop exercise. There are 100 different football words and phrases programmed into the game. The program will select ten items at random and shuffle the order of the items each time the game is opened. With luck, it will just about never be the same game twice. Will work on IW or PC.

Interactive multiple choice quiz on the London Olympics. The programme will shuffle the possible answers into a different order each time it is opened. Will work on PC or IW.

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.

Two linked, interactive gap-fill exercises about Cristiano Ronaldo. The first exercise requires students to supply nouns. The second exercise features exactly the same stimulus text but requires students to supply adjectives or adjectival past participles. Will work on PC or IW.

Simple quiz. Each slide of the powerpoint begins with an outline map of one of the competing countries in Euro 2012. A click of the mouse will reveal the football strip of that country, modelled by a Subbuteo / Zeugo figure. Another click will reveal the flag of that country. A fourth click will reveal the name of the team. How many clicks do your pupils need before they identify the team?

Interactive drag and drop exercise in which students must match 10 olympic sports to clues in French. Will work on IW or PC.

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.

4 reflexive verbs relating to ma routine journalière, set out as a table so that students can analyse and infer the pattern. Could be given out as a hand-out of blown up for display.

Powerpoint story in which Bella from the 'Twighlight' series describes a typical day. The text appears slowly, giving students time to read and work out the meanings. As a follow up you could ask the class for ideas, such as likes and dislikes, to augment the text on each slide and make the story their own.

Relatively simple (?) Jungle Book style playscript for practising the language of the breakfast table. Cliffhanger ending.
