GCSE FRENCH KS4 FRENCH KS3 HIGH-FREQUENCY FRENCH IR VERBS CONJUGATION PRACTICE 3 TENSES & WORKBOOKS @ £1.20 EACH IN THE BUNDLE NEAR FUTURE, SIMPLE FUTURE, CONDITIONAL TENSES FOCUSING ON 25 HIGH-FREQUENCY FRENCH VERBS All files are non-editable files in a zipped format. I’ve also included a couple of my free-to-download resources you may not have seen in my store. The product is copyright, all rights reserved. It may not be copied, rewritten, shared or distributed outside your own classroom in any way. The license is a single-user license only. Please read the Terms of Use. My students really like this kind of grammar activity, as they like to work and learn independently, which is a successful way of varying teaching and learning methodologies - I’ve found it’s really important to avoid predominantly teacher-led learning in the languages classroom. There are 150 conjugations across 3 differentiated conjugation challenges with a full answer key in each set, so 450 conjugations in total. I use these kinds of workbooks in lots of different ways: for practice during the introduction phase, for independent choice in class time, for home learning, for practice and revision during vacation and at return to class, and for cover lessons - they’re really versatile, and ideal for KS3 French and KS4 French students who are beginning to work with more complex language and texts in French, and want to work on these tenses a little more. The workbooks focus on the mechanics of conjugation, rather than usage, and I’ve found that when my students are able to provide the correct conjugation very quickly, and out of a specific context, they feel really confident that their conjugation skills are developing well. The workbooks focus on formation and conjugation, rather than usage, though it’s definitely useful to remind students of a number of things when focusing on or revising tense and verb formation and conjugation. Language learners do often try to conflate what they know about grammar in their first language with the grammar of the language they are learning. With the imperfect tense in French for example, students whose first language is English often use j’étais finir instead of je finissais as a translation of I was finishing. There are specific differences in usage between English and French with this tense, and I do always discuss this with students about this when we’re using the workbooks - I tend to work fairly simultaneously with le passé composé and l’imparfait, because students are better able to understand correct usage when they look at a range of past tense contexts together, for example I have finished, I finished, I was finishing, I used to finish. I refer frequently the difference in usage between English and French, and this is important particularly when explaining when and in which contexts to use the imperfect tense in French. Though the workbooks focus solely on the correct conjugation of verbs, and do not look at word order in the context of full sentences, there are conjugation patterns that students can learn, recognize and apply, ensuring that their spoken and written French is accurate, and that their understanding of French across the skills of listening, speaking, reading and writing is robust. Students become very familiar and confident the more they work with conjugation, and these quick conjugations certainly help to embed that successfully. The tenses are: near future (futur proche) simple future (futur simple) conditional (conditionnel) Each set is structured as follows: Two alphabetical verb reference lists: French-English and English-French. Three conjugation challenges, each with 50 individual conjugations: Conjugation Challenge 1: each verb conjugated in French across a range of pronouns, with students writing the corresponding English verb conjugation. Conjugation Challenge 2: gives the infinitive of each verb in French, specifying the target pronoun. Students write the corresponding verb conjugation in French. Conjugation Challenge 3: students write the corresponding French verb conjugation, and its infinitive, from an English prompt. Notes and Next Steps template which students visit regularly - it really does encourage them to think about where they are now, how confident they feel, and what they might need to work on a little more to be absolutely sure of their conjugation skills. We also note down any new verbs we meet, which enables students to build up their own verb vocabulary bank. It’s a great tool to guide and inform whole-group discussion about learning and progress in general, which is a really successful and popular activity. answer key: 6-page booklet which is absolutely essential in my view. Answer keys help students develop more independence in their learning, and provide them with an additional opportunity to engage with language and grammar. They also genuinely enjoy correcting their own - and particularly each others’ - work.

SPANISH FOR CHILDREN BEGINNER PRIMARY SPANISH KS3 SPANISH VOCABULARY CARDS : REFERENCE, RECALL & WRITE WORKBOOK TWO SETS @ £1.80 EACH IN THE BUNDLE 198 WORDS & PHRASES WITH MATCHING ENGLISH CARDS My students really like to work independently, in pairs and in small groups, and these vocabulary cards enable them to do that. They find that this way of working really does help them to develop their confidence and embed the vocabulary into their longer-term memory. There are lots of games and activities to play, and I’ve described several that are successful with my groups. They love to quiz and test themselves and each other on a regular basis - it’s a very popular alternative to more traditional vocabulary ‘drilling tasks’. Giving students regular and frequent opportunities to work with the cards is really effective, and not only when we’re focusing on these particular vocabulary themes, but also across the school year, and even when they’re far more advanced in their learning - all learners benefit from going back to the start. The target vocabulary includes essential beginner Spanish words and phrases in the following vocabulary groups: Set 1: Los saludos Los días de la semana Los meses y las estaciones del año Los números 0-20 Mi familia Palabras frecuentes Frases útiles para la clase Preguntas y respuestas Set 2: Los saludos Los colores Las partes del cuerpo Los números 21-40 El tiempo Frases útiles para la clase Preguntas y respuestas Varying teaching and learning methodologies in the languages classroom is really important, and these cards enable students to learn entirely independently. There’s definitely some prep involved - printing, laminating and cutting out - laminating is certainly worth the effort, as the cards are a lot more learner-friendly, and do last for years. Students don’t have to play with full sets - they can work with selected vocabulary groups. The 18-page reference, recall and write workbooks give students a different way of consolidating their vocabulary - writing it out really helps to embed language, and is great for spelling too. There are 3 differentiated recall and write challenges in each workbook, as well as a full alphabetical Spanish-English vocabulary list, which works well as a longer-term reference resource too. Students are able to ***apply their Spanish creatively and practicall***y with the games cards templates, which is an essential element of successful language learning. The differentiated Recall & Write activities really help students practice and review the vocabulary, and to work on spelling and writing in Spanish: The 3 differentiated Recall & Write activities really help students practice and review the vocabulary, and to work on spelling and writing in Spanish: Written Recall Challenge One: students write the English word /phrase from a Spanish prompt, with all the words and phrases grouped together in the same category Written Recall Challenge Two: with this challenge, students write the words and phrases in Spanish from an English prompt, and again, they’re all group together in the same category Written Recall Challenge Three: this final challenge ‘switches’ at each question from Spanish to English, and lists words and phrases randomly from each category I encourage students to complete the Notes and Next Steps sheet regularly - this helps promote reflective learning, encourages students to think about progress they have made, to think about targets for improvement, and how to achieve those targets.

GCSE SPANISH KS4 SPANISH KS3 SPANISH SPANISH IR VERBS CONJUGATION PRACTICE 25 high-frequency Spanish IR verbs 3 workbooks & tenses @ £1.20 each, 150 conjugations, 3 differentiated conjugation challenges, answer keys & verbs lists ideal for KS3 Spanish into KS4 Spanish students who are getting to grips with conjugation in Spanish, progressing to more complex language and texts. My students really like this kind of grammar activity, as they like to work and learn independently, which is a successful way of varying teaching and learning methodologies - I’ve found it’s really important to avoid predominantly teacher-led learning in the languages classroom. . The tenses are: present (presente) perfect (perfecto compuesto) preterite (pretérito) I use these kinds of workbooks in lots of different ways: for practice during the introduction phase, for independent choice in class time, for home learning, for practice, reinforcing and revision during vacation and at return to class, and for individual activities during cover lessons - I move onto conjugation quite quickly in my language learning programmes, so that students can apply language practically and creatively, which is essential for progressing in language learning, as well as consolidating language and grammatical concepts. I tend to give my students regular opportunities to practice the conjugations during the whole schools year, which they find this really useful for mapping their own progress and developing their overall understanding of how Spanish conjugation ‘works’. When they are able to provide the correct conjugation very quickly, and out of a specific context, they feel really confident that their conjugation skills are developing well The workbooks focus on the correct conjugation of verbs, rather than usage, but I definitely find it useful to remind students of a number of things when focusing on or revising tense and verb conjugation. For example, with the Spanish present tense, I encourage advanced beginner students to look for patterns across all the verbs, such as the singular pronouns, including for example the singular formal pronoun Usted form being identical, which is fairly standard, but the conjugation of the formal singular Usted does frequently lead to errors at this stage of learning. Language learners do often try to conflate what they know about grammar in their first language with the grammar of the language they are learning. With the Spanish perfect tense for example, students with English as a first language frequently use tener instead of haber as the auxiliary, as they tend to be more familiar with tener. Students do need to to have a good grasp of the auxiliary verb haber in the present tense to ensure that they can form the perfect tense accurately. In terms of the past participle, there are***patterns*** in its formation, which students begin to be able to predict accurately: the more they see and use the participles, the more embedded these patterns become. There are certain differences in usage in the perfect and other tenses between English and Spanish, and I do always discuss this with students about this when we’re using the workbooks. When we look at the preterite tense in Spanish, students often confuse it with the imperfect tense when they are conjugating verbs, as well as when and how to use either tense. There are specific and important differences in usage between the tenses, and I do always discuss this with students about this when we’re using the workbooks. Generally, I introduce a range of past tenses fairly closely together, so that students can compare and contrast tenses, with lots of practice for both correct conjugation and usage, as I’ve found that this helps students really grasp the nuances of the tenses, the differences in endings, and when exactly to use them. It also allows us to compare and contrast tenses, across a range of texts and authentic resources, which really helps students consolidate learning. There are conjugation patterns and specific rules for usage that students can learn, recognize and apply, which students begin to be able to predict accurately, which in turn ensures that their spoken and written Spanish is accurate, and that their understanding of Spanish across the skills of listening, speaking, reading and writing is robust. Each set is structured as follows: Two alphabetical verb reference lists: Spanish-English and English-Spanish, useful for longer-term reference too Three differentiated conjugation challenges, each with 50 individual conjugations: Conjugation Challenge 1: each verb conjugated in Spanish across a range of pronouns, with students writing the corresponding English verb conjugation. Conjugation Challenge 2: gives the infinitive of each verb in Spanish, specifying the target pronoun. Students write the corresponding verb conjugation in Spanish. Conjugation Challenge 3: students write the corresponding Spanish verb conjugation, and its infinitive, from a Spanish prompt. Notes and Next Steps template to encourage my students to reflect on their progress, and think about what they can reasonably and realistically do to meet learning targets and move on - we revisit the conjugations, and the Notes and Next Steps, regularly - sometimes students haven’t quite embedded learning before it’s time to move on, so revisiting for 10-minute ‘chunks’ is really popular with them. Students not any new verbs they learn, which in time builds into a really comprehensive verb vocabulary bank. We also use the Notes and Next Steps to inform, guide and focus whole-group discussion on learning and progress in general, which is a really popular activity. answer key six pages in book format. Answer keys are essential for this kind of learning activity, as they do provide a really essential additional opportunity for students to engage with language, and my students prefer to work and learn independently, assessing their own progress, either individually, in pairs or in small groups.

PRIMARY FRENCH KS2 FRENCH KS3 FRENCH FRUITS & VEGETABLES FRENCH FOLLOW ME FRUITS ET LÉGUMES EN FRANÇAIS 3 games set @ £1.20 each Files are non-editable in a zipped format. They are copyright, all rights reserved. They may not be copied, rewritten, shared or distributed outside your own classroom in any way. The license for purchase is a single-user license only. Please read the Terms of Use carefully. The games feature a range of fruits and vegetables in French: Set 1: focus on French fruits Set 2: focus on French vegetables Set 3: focus on a combination of both French fruits and French vegetables I have, Who has? J’ai… Qui a… ? is a whole-group lively & communicative language learning game, perfect for practising, reinforcing & refreshing French target language. The game has a multi-skill focus: listening, speaking & reading, with an important bonus focus on social interaction and participation. The game is perfect for pronunciation practice too - particularly with silent s, the non-/audible sound of x (deux and dix for example) and so on. I point out particular phonemes and sounds too - such as the ch in champignons, the soft c in citron compared to the hard c in carotte , the eu in chou-fleur and the ei in groseilles. The aim of the game is to create a French sentence chain as quickly as possible, starting with J’ai la première carte, and ending with the final card, C’est la dernière carte. The game also works well if the sentence sequence is placed on the floor, a longish table, or other flat surface. I created the game for my young beginner French learners, but I’ve also played the game with my older adult French learners, who really enjoy it too. The design is four cards per page, which allows for a large font, which is really important for beginner language learners who are familiar with the written word, and starting to link spelling with sound. Try to print in color if you can - it adds to the visual appeal of the game, which is a real motivator for learning. I always laminate my games cards, which is definitely worth the extra prep time and additional expense - the cards are far more learner-friendly, and last in excellent condition for years, so I get lots of use from them. There are 29 fruits featured in the games: green apple; red apple; banana; cherry; date; fig; gooseberries; grapefruit; green grapes; red grapes; honeydew melon; kiwi; lemon; lime; mango; nectarine; olive; orange; papaya; peach; pear; pineapple; pumpkin; raspberry; redcurrants; rhubarb; starfruit; strawberry; watermelon. with 28 vegetables: artichoke; asparagus; aubergine; green beans; beetroot; broccoli; Brussels sprout; cabbage; carrot; cauliflower; celery; cucumber; garlic; leek; lettuce; mushroom; onion; peas; green pepper; red pepper; yellow pepper; potato; sweet potato; radish; spinach; sweetcorn; tomato; zucchini. All the fruits and vegetables may not be in my longer-term learning plan, but the learning objective moves beyond simply learning individual units of vocabulary. The images help students infer meaning from context, supported by the visual prompts and clues. This in turn supports them in developing their French language skills in the longer and more complex sentences. There is implicit input on grammatical concepts such as adjectival agreement, gender, definite, indefinite and partitive articles and position of adjectives, either preceding or proceeding the particular noun. This is a very successful way of really getting the most of what looks like a straightforward game for consolidating the target vocabulary - it is actually so much more! The question card template provides an additional learning activity, with students applying their developing French language knowledge creatively and practically, as they make game cards for the class. This is*** integral to successful language learning***, and it’s actually a really popular activity with my students. They read their new sentences to the whole class, and it’s generally a competition to see who can create the longest sentences with the most fruits. Download, print out, laminate, cut out & shuffle the cards. Distribute the cards, one or two per student, depending on how many students you have in your group. I often play too - students really do enjoy it when I join in, and they seem to work that little harder on their concentration, reading out loud and pronunciation. Students walk around the room, talking to each other in their best French accent, sharing the information on their cards, until they have arranged the cards in the correct order. The game is also really successful when we play in teams against a timer, regularly over a longer-term series of lessons - students love to see if they can beat their own time record, as well as the other teams. The competitive element is a great motivator for learning too.

GERMAN IRREGULAR VERBS CONJUGATION PRACTICE #4

6 Resources
ALEVEL GERMAN ADVANCED GERMAN IRREGULAR VERBS CONJUGATION PRACTICE 3 workbooks & tenses @ £1.20 each in the bundle featuring 25 high-frequency irregular German verbs in the pluperfect, future perfect & conditional perfect tenses, 150 conjugations in each workbook, 450 conjugations in total, answer keys & verb lists ideal for advanced German students who have a sound understanding of conjugation and tense in German, are working regularly with the notion of a range of tenses and mood in German, have a solid grasp of verbs that are conjugated with either haben or sein in the relevant tenses, and are comfortable with complex texts, including authentic resources. Grammar books are not consistent with grammatical terminology, so in this context, the conditional perfect is I would have done for example. I’ve used hätte & past participle as ich würde gemacht haben is no longer commonly used in the way that ich hätte gemacht is for example. The conjugation is structured in the same way as the Konjunktiv II Plusquamperfekt, which is often called the pluperfect subjunctive in English grammatical terminology, though of course, the usage is different. It’s actually really useful to introduce the conditional perfect tense in German along with the future perfect tense, as the patterns are identical, other than the auxiliary tense, and it allows students to compare and contrast the tenses using a range of texts including authentic resources, and to practice both fairly simultaneously - in my experience, students do not confuse or mix up the tenses when they’re learning and using them together. In general, I move forward quite rapidly with conjugation, as this also gives us the opportunity to work with a wide range of authentic texts in our learning programme, and students’ ability to create and use new language isn’t restricted by not having an understanding and knowledge of the required tense. The tenses are: pluperfect tense (Plusquamperfekt) future perfect tense (Konjuktiv I, Futur II) conditional perfect tense (Konjuktiv II, Plusquamperfekt) The workbooks focus on the mechanics of conjugation, rather than usage, but I’ve found that when my students are able to provide the correct conjugation very quickly, and out of a specific context, they feel really confident that their German conjugation skills are developing well, which is a key step in creating and producing correct German, in both oral and written form. My students really like this kind of grammar activity, as they like to work and learn independently, which is a successful way of varying teaching and learning methodologies - I’ve found it’s really important to avoid predominantly teacher-led learning in the languages classroom. I definitely find it useful to remind students of a number of things when focusing on or revising tense and verb conjugation. Students do often try to conflate what they know about conjugation in their first language with the patterns and rules of the language they are learning. For example, with the German conditional perfect tense, students need to have a firm grasp of haben in the subjunctive mood (Konjuktiv II, ich hätte, du hättest etc, a direct translation of I would have, you would have….) and sein in the subjunctive (ich wäre, du wärest etc, which is not adirect translation for English-speaking German learners, and can take a little extra practice), and of how to form and position past participles accurately. Though the workbooks focus solely on the correct conjugation of verbs with ‘quick conjugations’, and does not look at word order in the context of full sentences, there are fixed conjugation patterns that students can learn, recognise and apply, ensuring that their spoken and written German is accurate, and that their understanding of German across the skills of listening, speaking, reading and writing is robust. Students become very familiar and confident the more they work with conjugation, and these quick conjugations certainly help to embed that successfully. I’ve used these ‘quick conjugations’ for many years with my German classes.

ENGLISH FRUITS & VEGETABLES I HAVE, WHO HAS? BUNDLE

6 Resources
ESL EFL ENGLISH FRUITS & VEGETABLES ACTIVITIES GAMES 3 GAMES @ £1.20 EACH IN THE BUNDLE Set 1 focuses on fruits in English; Set 2 on vegetables in English and Set 3 on a combination of fruits and vegetables in English, ideal for advanced beginner English and intermediate English students. I have… Who has… ? is a lively & communicative whole-group language learning game, perfect for practising, reinforcing & refreshing target vocabulary in English. The game has a multi-skill focus: listening, speaking & reading, with an important bonus focus on social interaction and participation. It’s perfect for pronunciation practice too. I point out particular phonemes and sounds, such as the soft c in lettuce compared to the hard c in carrot, and the addition of n to a when preceding a noun starting with a vowel, such as an aubergine or an orange for example. The aim of the game is to create an English sentence chain as quickly as possible, starting with the first card, and ending with the final card, the last card. The game works well if the sentence sequence is placed on the floor, a longish table, or other flat surface. I created the game for young beginner learners of English, but it definitely also works well with older and adult learners too. The design is four cards per page, which allows for a large font - this is really important for beginner language learners who are familiar with the written word, and starting to link spelling with sound. Try to print in colour if you can - it adds to the visual appeal of the game, which is a real motivator for learning. There are 29 fruits featured across the 3 games: green apple; red apple; banana; cherry; date; fig; gooseberries; grapefruit; green grapes; red grapes; honeydew melon; kiwi; lemon; lime; mango; nectarine; olive; orange; papaya; peach; pear; pineapple; pumpkin; raspberry; redcurrants; rhubarb; starfruit; strawberry; watermelon. and 28 vegetables: artichoke; asparagus; aubergine; green beans; beetroot; broccoli; Brussels sprout; cabbage; carrot; cauliflower; celery; cucumber; garlic; leek; lettuce; mushroom; onion; peas; green pepper; red pepper; yellow pepper; potato; sweet potato; radish; spinach; sweetcorn; tomato; zucchini All the fruits and vegetables may not be in my longer-term learning plan, but the learning objective moves beyond simply learning individual units of vocab - the images help students infer meaning from context, supported by the visual prompts and clues - this in turn supports them in developing their English language skills in the longer and more complex sentences. There is***implicit input on grammatical concepts*** such as the***lack of adjectival agreement and gender***, and position of adjectives, which are often entirely new concepts for many ESL/EFL learners. Nouns feature definite, indefinite and partitive articles too. This is a very successful way of really getting the most of what looks like a straightforward game for consolidating the target vocabulary - it is actually so much more! The question card template provides an additional learning activity, with students applying their developing English language knowledge creatively and practically, as they make game cards for the class - this is a really popular activity with my students. Download, print out, laminate, cut out & shuffle the cards. I’d definitely recommend you laminate the cards, despite the extra prep and expense. They’re far more learner-friendly, and they will last for absolutely years. Distribute the cards, one or two per student, depending on how many students you have in your group. I often play too - students really do enjoy it when I join in, and they seem to work that little harder on their concentration, reading out loud and pronunciation. Students walk around the room, talking to each other in their best English accent, sharing the information on their cards, until they have arranged the cards in the correct order. The game works best played against a timer, regularly over a longer-term series of lessons - students genuinely enjoy seeing if they can beat their own time record.

ITALIAN ARE VERBS CONJUGATION PRACTICE #4

A LEVEL ITALIAN KS5 ITALIAN ARE VERBS CONJUGATION PRACTICE 3 workbooks & tenses @ £1.20 each in the bundle featuring 25 high-frequency Italian ARE verbs in the pluperfect, future perfect & conditional perfect tenses, 150 conjugations in each workbook, 450 conjugations in total, answer keys & verb lists ideal for advanced Italian KS5 Italian students who are working with more complex language and texts, including authentic resources featuring a broad range of tenses, and generally developing their understanding and knowledge of tense and mood in Italian. My students really like this kind of grammar activity, as they like to work and learn independently, which is a successful way of varying teaching and learning methodologies, as it’s really important to avoid predominantly teacher-led learning in the languages classroom. It’s actually really useful for example to introduce the conditional perfect tense in Italian along with the future perfect tense, as the patterns are identical, other than the auxiliary tense, and it allows students to compare and contrast the tenses using a range of texts including authentic resources, and to practise both fairly simultaneously - in my experience, students do not confuse or mix up the tenses when they’re learning and using them together. In general, I move forward quite rapidly with conjugation, as this also gives us the opportunity to work with a wide range of authentic texts in our learning programme, and students’ ability to create and use new language isn’t restricted by not having an understanding and knowledge of the required tense. The workbook focuses on formation and conjugation, rather than usage, though it’s definitely useful to remind students of a number of things when focusing on or revising tense and verb formation and conjugation. Language learners often conflate what they know about grammar in their first language with the grammar of the language they are learning. For example, with the conditional perfect tense, with students whose first language is English really need to be confident about using the auxiliary essere when it’s required, as well as be able to conjugate both essere and avere in the conditional tense. Additionally, of course they have to be able to form past participles accurately, to ensure that they can construct the conditional perfect tense correctly. In terms of the past participle, there are clear patterns in its formation, which students begin to be able to predict accurately: the more they see and use the participles, the more embedded these patterns become. I’ve used these kinds of grammar activities for many years with my Italian classes. My students definitely find them to be a great way of practicing, reinforcing and revising how to conjugate essential verbs in Italian. I use them in a range of contexts such as independent work either in class time or at home, holiday refresher work, or individual activities for cover lessons. I tend to give my students regular opportunities to practice the conjugations during the whole school year, and they find this really useful for mapping their own progress and developing their overall understanding of how Italian conjugation ‘works’. Though the workbooks focus solely on the correct conjugation of verbs, and does not look at word order in the context of full sentences, there are conjugation patterns that students can learn, recognise and apply, ensuring that their spoken and written Italian is accurate, and that their understanding of***Italian*** across the skills of listening, speaking, reading and writing is robust. Students become very familiar and confident the more they work with conjugation, and these quick conjugations certainly help to embed that successfully. The tenses are: pluperfect tense (trapassato prossimo) future perfect tense (futuro anteriore) conditional perfect tense (condizionale passato) Grammar books are not consistent with grammatical terminology, so in this context, the conditional perfect is I would have done or I would have been for example - we often see this tense called the conditional past too. Each set is structured as follows: Two alphabetical verb reference lists: Italian-English and English-Italian. Three conjugation challenges, each with 50 individual conjugations: Conjugation Challenge 1: each verb conjugated in Italian across a range of pronouns, with students writing the corresponding English verb conjugation. Conjugation Challenge 2: gives the infinitive of each verb in Italian, specifying the target pronoun. Students write the corresponding verb conjugation in Italian. Conjugation Challenge 3: students write the corresponding Italian verb conjugation, and its infinitive, from an English prompt. Notes and Next Steps template which students visit regularly - it really does encourage them to think about where they are now, how confident they feel, and what they might need to work on a little more to be absolutely sure of their conjugation skills. We also note down any new verbs we meet, which enables students to build up their own verb vocabulary bank. It’s a great tool to guide and inform whole-group discussion about learning and progress in general, which is a really successful and popular activity. answer key: 6-page booklet which is absolutely essential in my view. Answer keys help students develop more independence in their learning, and provide them with an additional opportunity to engage with language and grammar. They also genuinely enjoy correcting their own - and particularly each others’ - work.

PRIMARY SPANISH KS3 SPANISH FRUITS & VEGETABLES BINGO GAMES 200 DIFFERENTIATED BINGO GRIDS AND 80 CALLING CARDS TWO SETS OF BINGO GAMES @ £1.80 EACH IN THE BUNDLE Bingo games are perfect for language learning, and they’re really easy to differentiate. All my students, regardless of age, find playing the games a great way of consolidating their Spanish vocabulary, and developing their Spanish language skills in general - bingo is absolutely perfect for speaking, listening, reading, writing and spelling. This bundle comprises two sets of 100 differentiated bingo grids and 40 calling cards Spanish and English so 200 bingo grids and 80 calling cards in total. I always play with English calling cards too, as I’ve found it’s a really great way of further consolidating vocabulary - students have to focus carefully on the language ‘switch’, and translate what they hear really quickly. It’s definitely useful to have calling cards, so that you can keep track of what you’re calling out, and it also lets students be the bingo caller too, meaning they can play entirely independently of the teacher. There are twelve Spanish fruits in masculine, feminine, singular & plural: the green apple the lemon the oranges the peach the raspberries the pineapple the kiwi the pear the bananas the green grapes the strawberry the watermelon and twelve Spanish vegetables in masculine, feminine, singular & plural: the mushrooms the cauliflower thee carrots the lettuce the cucumber the tomato the cabbage the potatoes the garlic the broccoli the peas the onions I differentiate my bingo games by using picture-only cards, which are great for general vocabulary consolidation and recall, and listening skills. There are 80 9-square grids in total, and there’s a set of color (which I sometimes laminate so that I can just get them out whenever I need to - make sure students have wipe-clean pens on their tables!). I’ve also included the same grids in black and white - simply print these out. I sometimes give out pages with four grids on, and let students choose which order they play the grids in - they have multiple pages - or sometimes, I get the students to cut out the grids, place them in a small bowl or similar on tables and they then randomly choose grids - depending on the size of your class, you will definitely have several winners per game. The grids are designed for all the squares to be crossed off in order to win the game. I also use word-only grids to help students focus more on their reading skills, so I’ve included 80 Spanish word-only 9-square grids, 4 per page (10 pages). There are 40 mixed word and picture grids are ideal for additional challenge and differentiation.

My students really like this kind of grammar activity, as they like to work and learn independently, which is a successful way of varying teaching and learning methodologies - I’ve found it’s really important to avoid predominantly teacher-led learning in the languages classroom. . The tenses are: imperfect (pretérito imperfecto) future (futuro) conditional (condicional) I use these kinds of workbooks in lots of different ways: for practice during the introduction phase, for independent choice in class time, for home learning, for practice, reinforcing and revision during vacation and at return to class, and for individual activities during cover lessons - I move onto conjugation quite quickly in my language learning programmes, so that students can apply language practically and creatively, which is essential for progressing in language learning, as well as consolidating language and grammatical concepts. I tend to give my students regular opportunities to practice the conjugations during the whole schools year, which they find this really useful for mapping their own progress and developing their overall understanding of how Spanish conjugation ‘works’. When they are able to provide the correct conjugation very quickly, and out of a specific context, they feel really confident that their conjugation skills are developing well The workbooks focus on the correct conjugation of verbs, rather than usage, but I definitely find it useful to remind students of a number of things when focusing on or revising tense and verb conjugation. For example, students with English as a first language frequently confuse the imperfect tense with the preterite tense when they are conjugating them, as well as when and how to use either tense. There are specific differences in usage between the tenses, and I do always discuss this with students about this when we’re using the workbooks. Generally, I introduce the imperfect and preterite tenses fairly closely together, with lots of practice for both correct conjugation and usage, as I’ve found that comparing and contrasting tenses helps students really grasp the nuances of the tenses, the differences in endings, and when exactly to use them. There are conjugation patterns and specific rules for usage that students can learn, recognize and apply, and begin to be able to predict accurately, which in turn ensures that their spoken and written Spanish is accurate, and that their understanding of Spanish across the skills of listening, speaking, reading and writing is robust. Each set is structured as follows: Two alphabetical verb reference lists: Spanish-English and English-Spanish, useful for longer-term reference too Three differentiated conjugation challenges, each with 50 individual conjugations: Conjugation Challenge 1: each verb conjugated in Spanish across a range of pronouns, with students writing the corresponding English verb conjugation.

Conjugation Challenge 3: students write the corresponding Spanish verb conjugation, and its infinitive, from a Spanish prompt. Notes and Next Steps template to encourage my students to reflect on their progress, and think about what they can reasonably and realistically do to meet learning targets and move on - we revisit the conjugations, and the Notes and Next Steps, regularly - sometimes students haven’t quite embedded learning before it’s time to move on, so revisiting for 10-minute ‘chunks’ is really popular with them. Students not any new verbs they learn, which in time builds into a really comprehensive verb vocabulary bank. We also use the Notes and Next Steps to inform, guide and focus whole-group discussion on learning and progress in general, which is a really popular activity. answer key six pages in book format. Answer keys are essential for this kind of learning activity, as they do provide a really essential additional opportunity for students to engage with language, and my students prefer to work and learn independently, assessing their own progress, either individually, in pairs or in small groups.

Grammar books are not consistent with grammatical terminology, so in this context, the conditional perfect is I would have done for example. I’ve used hätte & past participle as ich würde gemacht haben is no longer commonly used in the way that ich hätte gemacht is for example. The conjugation is structured in the same way as the Konjunktiv II Plusquamperfekt, which is often called the pluperfect subjunctive in English grammatical terminology, though of course, the usage is different. It’s actually really useful to introduce the conditional perfect tense in German along with the future perfect tense, as the patterns are identical, other than the auxiliary tense, and it allows students to compare and contrast the tenses using a range of texts including authentic resources, and to practice both fairly simultaneously - in my experience, students do not confuse or mix up the tenses when they’re learning and using them together.

I definitely find it useful to remind students of a number of things when focusing on or revising tense and verb conjugation. Students do often try to conflate what they know about conjugation in their first language with the patterns and rules of the language they are learning. For example, with the German conditional perfect tense, students need to have a firm grasp of haben in the subjunctive mood (Konjuktiv II, ich hätte, du hättest etc, a direct translation of I would have, you would have….) and sein in the subjunctive (ich wäre, du wärest etc, which is not adirect translation for English-speaking German learners, and can take a little extra practice), and of how to form and position past participles accurately. Though the workbooks focus solely on the correct conjugation of verbs with ‘quick conjugations’, and does not look at word order in the context of full sentences, there are fixed conjugation patterns that students can learn, recognise and apply, ensuring that their spoken and written German is accurate, and that their understanding of German across the skills of listening, speaking, reading and writing is robust.

GERMAN HIGH-FREQUENCY VERBS CONJUGATION PRACTICE #1

KS3 GERMAN KS4 GERMAN GCSE GERMAN CONJUGATION PRACTICE 3 workbooks @ £1.20 each in the bundle featuring 25 high-frequency irregular German verbs in the present, perfect and imperfect tenses, 150 conjugations in each workbook, 450 conjugations in total, answer keys and verb lists ideal for advanced KS3 German students who are beginning to work with compound sentences and longer texts, and KS4 German students who are working with more complex language and texts, including a range of tenses. The workbooks focus on the correct conjugation of verbs, rather than usage, but I definitely find it useful to remind students of a number of things when focusing on or revising tense and verb conjugation. For example, with the German present tense, I encourage students to look for patterns across all the verbs, such as the singular pronouns, including the pronoun man form being identical, pointing out also that man is commonly used in German, often also meaning we, unlike the pronoun one in English. Students do often try to conflate what they know about conjugation, and with those whose first language is English, I frequently see attempts such as ich bin singen for I am singing or similarly ich mache singen for I do sing. I refer frequently the difference in usage between English and German, and this is important particularly when explaining when and in which contexts to use the simple present and the continuous / progressive present tense. Though the workbook focuses solely on the correct conjugation of verbs, and does not look at word order in the context of full sentences, there are fixed conjugation patterns that students can***learn, recognise and apply***, ensuring that their spoken and written German is accurate, and that their understanding of German across the skills of listening, speaking, reading and writing is robust. Students become very familiar and confident the more they work with conjugation, and these quick conjugations certainly help to embed that successfully. I’ve used these ‘quick conjugations’ for many years with my German classes. My students definitely find them to be a great way of practising, reinforcing and revising how to conjugate essential verbs in German. I use them in a range of contexts such as independent work either in class time or at home, holiday refresher work, or individual activities for cover lessons. I tend to give my students regular opportunities to practice the conjugations during the whole schools year, and they find this really useful for mapping their own progress and developing their overall understanding of how German conjugation ‘works’. Each set has the following structure: Two alphabetical verb reference lists: German-English and English-German. Three conjugation challenges, each with 50 individual conjugations: Conjugation Challenge 1: each verb conjugated in German across a range of pronouns, with students writing the corresponding English verb conjugation. Conjugation Challenge 2: gives the infinitive of each verb in German, specifying the target pronoun. Students write the corresponding verb conjugation in German. Conjugation Challenge 3: students write the corresponding German verb conjugation, and its infinitive, from an English prompt. Notes and Next Steps sheet, which encourages students to think about how their understanding of German conjugation works, what progress they have made, what their targets for improvement might realistically be, and what they might reasonably do in order to meet those targets. Students also note down any new verbs they discover, which enables them to build up a really sound verb vocabulary bank. We also use this to guide our whole-group discussions about conjugation and German grammar, and learning and progress in general - this is a really successful and popular activity. answer key: there are 6 pages in the answer key book - for me, answer keys are an essential and integral part of learning with these kinds of workbooks - they give my students an additional opportunity to engage with language, they certainly help them develop more independence in their learning, and they genuinely enjoy ‘correcting’ their own, and especially each other’s work. Currently in my store I have quick conjugation workbooks for a range of verb groups featuring the following tenses: present tense (Präsens) perfect tense (Perfekt) imperfect tense (Präteritum) future tense (Futur I) conditional tense (Konjuktiv II, Futur I) pluperfect tense (Plusquamperfekt) future perfect tense (Konjuktiv I, Futur II) conditional perfect tense (Konjuktiv II, Plusquamperfekt) Have a browse in my store for more German conjugation and grammar activities, and a wide range of other German teaching and learning resources, with special offer bunles and lots of freebies too - I’ve included a couple here for you to try.

SPANISH AR VERBS CONJUGATION PRACTICE @ £1.20 EACH IN THE BUNDLE 3 workbooks & tenses, 25 high-frequency Spanish AR verbs, 150 conjugation questions across 3 differentiated challenges, answer keys & verb lists, 450 conjugations in total, ideal for advanced level Spanish A Level students who are working with more complex language and texts featuring a range of tenses, including authentic resources, and generally developing their knowledge and understanding of conjugation, tense and mood in Spanish. Grammar books are not necessarily particularly consistent with grammatical terminology, for example the conditional perfect (condicional perfecto) is also called the conditional past in English. The English equivalent is I would have helped for example. When students are confident with the pluperfect tense in Spanish, it’s actually really useful to introduce the future perfect tense fairly closely with the conditional perfect tense, as the patterns are identical, other than the auxiliary tense, and it allows students to compare and contrast the tenses across a broad range of texts and authentic resources, and to practise them fairly simultaneously - in my experience, students do not confuse or mix up the tenses when they’re learning and using them together, particularly at this stage of their Spanish learning. My students really like this kind of grammar activity, as they like to work and learn independently, which is a successful way of varying teaching and learning methodologies - I’ve found it’s really important to avoid predominantly teacher-led learning in the languages classroom. The workbooks are really versatile, and I use them in lots of different ways: for practice during the introduction phase, for independent choice in class time, for home learning, for practice and revision during vacation and at return to class, and for cover lessons. I’ve found that when my students are able to provide the correct conjugation very quickly, and out of a specific context, they feel really confident that their conjugation skills are developing well. I introduce a range of tenses quite quickly in my language learning programs, so that students have the opportunity to work with a broad range of texts, including authentic resources, enabling them to apply language practically and creatively, which is essential for progressing in language learning. The workbooks focus on formation and conjugation, rather than usage, but it’s definitely useful to remind students of a number of things when focusing on or revising tense and verb formation and conjugation. Language learners to often try to conflate what they know about conjugation in their first language, and the language they are learning, and with students with English as a first language learning the pluperfect tense for example, I frequently see students using tener instead of haber as the auxiliary, though they have generally embedded the use of haber when they learnt how to conjugate the perfect tense. Though the workbook focuses solely on the correct conjugation of verbs, and does not look at word order in the context of full sentences, there are conjugation patterns and specific rules for usage that students can learn, recognize and apply, and begin to be able to predict accurately, which in turn ensures that their spoken and written Spanish is accurate, and that their understanding of Spanish across the skills of listening, speaking, reading and writing is robust. The tenses are: pluperfect (pretérito pluscuamperfecto) future perfect (futuro perfecto) conditional perfect (condicional perfecto) Each set is structured as follows: Two alphabetical verb reference lists: Spanish-English and English-Spanish, useful for longer-term reference too Three differentiated conjugation challenges, each with 50 individual conjugations: Conjugation Challenge 1: each verb conjugated in Spanish across a range of pronouns, with students writing the corresponding English verb conjugation. Conjugation Challenge 2: gives the infinitive of each verb in Spanish, specifying the target pronoun. Students write the corresponding verb conjugation in Spanish. Conjugation Challenge 3: students write the corresponding Spanish verb conjugation, and its infinitive, from a Spanish prompt. Notes and Next Steps template to encourage my students to reflect on their progress, and think about what they can reasonably and realistically do to meet learning targets and move on - we revisit the conjugations, and the Notes and Next Steps, regularly - sometimes students haven’t quite embedded learning before it’s time to move on, so revisiting for 10-minute ‘chunks’ is really popular with them. Students not any new verbs they learn, which in time builds into a really comprehensive verb vocabulary bank. We also use the Notes and Next Steps to inform, guide and focus whole-group discussion on learning and progress in general, which is a really popular activity. answer key six pages in book format. Answer keys are essential for this kind of learning activity, as they do provide a really essential additional opportunity for students to engage with language, and my students prefer to work and learn independently, assessing their own progress, either individually, in pairs or in small groups. They’re a great teacher time-saver too, which is always a good thing! Currently in my store I have Spanish conjugation workbooks for a range of verb groups featuring the following tenses: present (presente) perfect (perfecto compuesto) preterite (pretérito) imperfect (pretérito imperfecto) future (futuro) conditional (condicional) pluperfect (pretérito pluscuamperfecto) future perfect (futuro perfecto) conditional perfect (condicional perfecto) Have a browse in my store for more Spanish grammar activities, and a wide range of Spanish language teaching and learning materials, with special offer bundles and lots of freebies too - I’ve included a selection here.

The workbooks focus on formation and conjugation, rather than usage, though it’s definitely useful to remind students of a number of things when focusing on or revising tense and verb formation and conjugation. Language learners do often try to conflate what they know about grammar in their first language with the grammar of the language they are learning. With the imperfect tense in French for example, students whose first language is English often use j’étais travailler instead of je travaillais as a translation of I was working. There are specific differences in usage between English and French with this tense, and I do always discuss this with students about this when we’re using the workbooks - I tend to work fairly simultaneously with le passé composé and l’imparfait, because students are better able to understand correct usage when they look at a range of past tense contexts together, for example I have worked, I worked, I was working, I used to work. I refer frequently the difference in usage between English and French, and this is important particularly when explaining when and in which contexts to use the imperfect tense in French.
