I have used this for INSETS and CPDs for both PGCE students in MFL and also at whole school levels. The examples provided are MFL specific but can of course be amended for all subjects and purposes.

This is a lesson based on Studio 2, module 4 chez moi, chez toi, but I added the near future tense in the lesson, as the texts from the Studio dod not allow for this and there was a need to stretch more able. You will need to refer to the texts from Studio 2 to do the translations, but these can be done without looking at the texts if Studio 2 is not used. The sequencing activities was a differentiated activitiy to stretch more able while others needed consolidation with the tenses ( refer to lesson plan )

Easy and simple to use. Consolidate use of perfect tense.

Based on the module Planet Facebook in Studio 3. I have created a slightly longer text on use of social networking sites. This helps learning and understanding of regular verbs and gives opportunities to learn and identify structures for use of own vocabulary when writing and speaking about this topic.

On this presentation, you will find ideas to help your students move on from using single words to building sentences. You can adapt the slides to suit. There are ideas to help identifying differences with j'ai/ j'aime and more in sentences to support listening. You can use Slides 1 and 2 to train your students to pronounnce cognates accurately, then develop and set sentence challenges with mini whiteboards or in pairs. Simple, but effective, tried and tested in both primary and secondary activities.

A very simple worksheet that I have used to practise, memorise and learn to use French idioms at all levels, but much appreciated at KS4 and KS5.

Lesson based on the use of technologies and internet. Recognising infinitives and joggling with other tenses, with main activities on error correcting in order to encourage students to work on accuracy, grammar and spellings. Used with year 10 but can be amended for other year groups.

I did this to help my class revise different verbs, tenses ( imperfect and present ), adjectives and the DOP. The examples of names can be tweaked, you may also wish to create a new template so you can work with the verbs, verb endings and also adjectives. The last slide introduces the subjunctive mode with il faut que and regular verbs. I have now also added two sheets to work with verbs, with support on sheet 2 ( differentiated verb gap fill )

This is to help students develop skills in reading and writing, revise the use of past, present and future, based on a text giving an account of an aristocrat's daily routine just before the start of the French revolution. The text is on Studio 2 in the last unit, but can be made up by teachers. The horrible stories clip can be used as a starter activity, I used mini whiteboards first to check what students knew about this.\nUse the vocab sheet ( from the CLIL4teachers website, not my own creation for this one ! ) to do match up or card sort.

To allow students to do citizenship en francais and also to work on their reading strategies, using cognates and various other tools.

I attach two texts, two for the students to identify what makes a good piece of writing in French and one easier text for a trap door game ’ which can be teacher led ( teacher reads the text twice, students listen, memorize with pens down and then rewrite the text from memory and then translate . With the longer texts you may help students identify the good practice with the help of the mark scheme, I also tend to organize games ( in two, one with a pencil, one with a pen, teacher calls out a sentence, first pupil to circle the sentence, dominant colour on the sheet wins )

I have amended this power point I used last year with top set year 9 and KS4 classes and added more practice, consolidation of using the DOP and also tried to show how this works in higher level sentences and work. I will use mini whiteboards also to challenge and mix DOP with other tenses. The second presentation contains more support and details about how to use DOP with perfect and even negatives for top grades.
