I am currently a Head of Modern Languages in a large secondary school in the North East Of England. I also work with the local University with PGCE MFL students, an area of my work I thoroughly enjoy. I am passionate about teaching and learning, and have a particular interest in the teaching of grammar and of literary texts to develop reading, writing and listening skills. I am currently working on developing a range of resources to support the study of Le Petit Nicolas and the series of books.

Please follow the link on youtube ( pink martini ou est ma tete official video ) Lovely song for the past tense, parts of the body and even the direct object pronoun. The cards are for pupils to show as they hear the matching idea in the song. I have now added the audio file, I hope it works

This is to support students with tenses and recognising patterns. This can be used a a support sheet or you may decide to cut out the grids and laminate and ask student to choose the cards with the tenses they need the most help with. I will add another resource with the conditional, and even some simple phrases using the subjunctive to stretch the more able.

A sequence for teaching listening

(0)
Designed and used this using listening strategies. The cards on one of the slides with the pictures of animals need to be cut up and laminated ( for keeping ) and given to students. This is to help them concentrate and focus on what is necessary to listen out for ... it normally works well in 6th - 8th grade, even early 10th grade. You can make everything harder !
