HA is a higher ability worksheet, MA is a middle ability worksheet with extra support. They should use their handout to help them.

I prepared this as revision for the topic of ‘Hispanoamerica’. I meant to produce 2 lessons with worksheets, but only got round to 1. This is for a very low ability Year 9 group.

Present Tense of Comer and Beber, 4 main opinions and new vocabulary with games, sentence builder as a plenary. Comes with a revision aid handout.

I prepared these 2 lessons as revision classes for my Year 7s before their Easter Assessment. They were given the worksheets which they had to fill in as they went. Starters include numeracy. It took my about 4 hours to do everything (I'm an NQT), so any comments / feedback would be welcome.

This is an alternative form of support to a writing frame. I use the writing frame for less able students, and the pyramid for middle ability students. It is easily adaptable to any topic.

<p>Test with several regular RE verbs. I had asked them to learn vendre, descendre and attendre and the endings. For the negative exercise, I give the point as long as the verb is conjugated correctly and sandwiched by the ‘ne / pas’.<br /> example: Le bakery ne vend pas meat -&gt; point - La boulangerie ne pas vend de viande -&gt; no point</p>

<ul> <li>grammar tables to fill in</li> <li>usage, including revision of opinion + infinitive</li> <li>translation</li> </ul>

<ul> <li>video</li> <li>vocab.</li> <li>factfile</li> <li>translation</li> <li>writing</li> </ul> <p>I booked a set of Ipads for my class to complete the worksheet at their own pace. If you have a language lab, you could take them there or you could set it as a homework.</p>

<p>My class had already learnt the vocabulary for places in town and the prepositions that go with them. This lesson revises that vocabulary and introduces the on peut + infinitive structure. The powerpoint ends in a writing that required my group 15 minutes after spending 5 minutes reading the passage and explaining what I wanted from them.</p>

<p>A few slides to practise using more verb structures. I gave them 3 or 4 minutes per slide before going through the answers with them. It is didactic but they make useful notes and as a follow-up homework, I asked them to write 2 of their own examples for each structure.</p>

Speaking:<br /> <br /> Students have to use je vais / je suis and make full sentences with au / à la / a l' / aux.<br /> <br /> Also: helpsheet and test for the following week.

<p>I give half a mark for knowing the number and half a mark for spelling. Accents and hyphens missing equate to a spelling mistake for me.</p>

<p>Lesson based around the Tricolore 4, page 102.</p> <ul> <li>vocab</li> <li>reading</li> <li>introduction and use of avoir besoin de</li> <li>listening</li> <li>writing</li> </ul>

<p>1st sheet should be used for listening and repeating, choral repetition, spontaneous translations. Focus on pronunciation and spelling. Mon ou Ma famille? All sorts of questions to get them to focus on each individual word.</p> <p>2nd sheet: fill in the vowels. Extra points for accents.</p> <p>3rd sheet: write out the French. The numbers identify how many letters/word.</p>

<p>I chose these 4 numbers as they struggle with them - adapt for your class depending on the numbers they find tricky to pronounce.</p> <p>I use this as a starter, I allow a set time and then move on!</p>

<p>Writing: 10 translations with support. Can be used to do some speaking, choral repetition.</p>

<p>Lesson on the topic of reality tv using a trailer of the show Qui veut épouser mon fils.</p> <ul> <li>vocab</li> <li>video</li> <li>comprehension questions (they must answer in full sentences)</li> <li>for/against reality tv discussion: get them to look-up adjectives to give a full answer, justifying how they feel about reality tv. Get them to draw 2 columns and write the adjectives you hear on the board, the other put them into a column.</li> <li>group work and presentations of ideas for a new show.</li> </ul>

Tweet by the UN to be translated, leading to a discussion on women. <br /> Several grammatical points: the imperative, word order and the subjunctive.<br /> None of my top set year 12s identified the imperative, despite having learnt it, so it's a good starter to check.
