Student speaking languages with scaffolding and prompts for MFL

Resources to support students with their speaking and writing skills in the target language

Confidence is something that secondary students often lack in the MFL classroom. We’ve selected a range of resources to encourage language learners to be more prepared, to take risks and to experiment with their speaking and writing. From speaking prompts to writing mats and frameworks, these resources provide learners with a range of tools, which will enable them to feel independent and secure in their language production.
