This is a 2b lesson on school rules for a GCSE Spanish class that I happened to have an observation with (unexpectedly!). The lesson includes a literacy starter (students have to find and amend the mistake in the sentence), a mini-plenary on grammar in relation to the starter, a tongue twister slide to practise 'i' sound, a mini-test on present tense verbs conjugation ( I often give these ones), a mini-test on articles, a pronunciation slide and a quizlet on the words that would be used in the reading task, and a reading task itself. I am trying to teach them how to approach these tasks in the most effective way so they underline the words they know and find out the ones they do not. I wrote the text myself on the basis of the one from the specimen materials for it to have a similar structure to the one they will see in the exam. Finally they self-assess their work (and learn new words!). This lesson includes the explanation on how to use 'Spanish Dict Box' application to finds out the meaning of unknown words.

This is a research project lesson (or two lessons really) that I created for my year 9 Spanish students. It can also be used for older students as the model answer has quite a list of grammar / some more can be added. The idea is to promote independent learning via research. There are two choices: a documentary about your school or an interview with between a student from your school and a school in Spain. Students decide on the task, the roles and start researching relevant information using their iPads (one of the students needs to summarise the information that others found). They then have to prepare a script in Spanish and to make a video using iMovie or any other video application. If there is little time I would suggest them to present it and I would film it. The whole process takes about 2 lessons and is perfect for the end of the topic as you can incorporate all of the structures / vocabulary learned during the term!

This is a research project lesson (or two lessons really) that I created for my year 9 Spanish students. It can also be used for older students as the model answer has a list of grammar / some more can be added. The idea is to promote independent learning via research. There are two choices: a bilingual movie poster (I wanted them to practise translating authentic information) about a movie of their choice or an interview with a famous actor/musician. Students decide on the task, the roles and start researching relevant information using their iPads (one of the students needs to summarise the information that others found). Those who chose the second option have to prepare a script in Spanish and if there is enough time, to make a video using iMovie or any other video application. If there is little time I would suggest them to present it and I would film it. The whole process takes about 2 lessons and is perfect for the end of the topic as you can incorporate all of the structures / vocabulary learned during the term!

This is a research project lesson (or two lessons really) that I created for my year 7 French students. The writing example can be easily adapted if more structures are to be added. The idea is to promote independent learning via research. Students have to research information about a sports team and create a poster. After that they have to produce a piece of writing to express their opinion on that team. Students decide on the task, the roles and start researching relevant information using their iPads (one of the students needs to summarise the information that others found). The whole process takes about 2 lessons and is perfect for the end of the topic as you can incorporate all of the structures / vocabulary learned during the term!

This is a simple Learning Grid to revise main figures and concepts in relation to the Changing Attitudes to Race topic within the 20th century USA history widely used in quite a few examination boards. It is a good revision task - you only need dice!

This is a research project lesson (or two lessons really) that I created for my year 8 Spanish students. The writing example can be easily adapted if more structures are to be added. The idea is to promote independent learning via research. Students have to research information about past or future events that they would like to visit if they were to have a time machine and create a poster or a set of notes. Students decide on the task and start researching relevant information using their iPads/ Chromebooks. At the same time they create a cardboard / paper time machine and produce a piece of writing as per model answer. In the end they stick their written notes / writing around the time machine (or attach it to their poster with researched information). The whole process takes about 2 lessons and is perfect for the end of the topic as you can incorporate all of the structures / vocabulary learned during the term! Note: the writing example is oriented on the working knowledge of conditional tense and related popular expressions. Please let me know if you have any other ideas on how this project can be implemented.If you still have some time left you can enjoy few games I have inserted to simply have fun during the (possibly) last lesson of the year.

These lessons are about Nazi Treatment of Jews during WWII. All of them have activities in common as I have used them for different groups and was catching up on the topic information with some of them, thus I have enclosed all three of them. In-between the three of them, they include a set of my standard activities, such as settler, starter (exam question with success criteria, model answer, explanation on how to assess the answer, peer/self assessment, SPAG control slides), information research task (see appropriate handout) and some fun activities for revision of information.

These are revision materials poor to the assessment in the Nazi Social policies, Nazi Control, Persecution and Antisemitism. The vast majority of slides provide general information for the students to remember and revise certain topics that are likely to appear in exam. The lesson includes settler, starter (cross one out activity), information slides and revision activity (revision handouts attached in the end, one from BBC Bitesize website (Antisemitism), another one fro the official revision guide for the course). I also attach another file (Activity) which includes another settler and an exam question example.

This lesson is about the life in Nazi Germany in the beginning of the WWII. It includes a settler, an example of how a student's book should look like, a starter (exam question task with a model answer, success criteria, an explanation on how to assess the peer's answer, a peer assessment slide and SPAG control slide), learning outcomes slide, an introduction slide on the WWII, information research task (based on the revision guide page included in this resource), oracy activity and a plenary asking students to explain which social group they would like to belong to in the Nazi Germany.

This lesson is about opposition to the Nazi rule from civilians. The lesson includes a settler, example of how a perfect student's book should look like, a starter (students have to guess which event is represented by each picture), All Read/Write Robin task (information research based on the revision guide handout provided in this resource), ask a question slide (followed by the question starters' slide), oracy leader task and keyword revision. Please note that the handout is taken from the WJEC GCSE History revision book.

These are homework materials that I have prepared to assess the knowledge of my students on the topic of Nazi Germany. They are created out of past exam papers, exam-like questions out of my head / book and some internet research. They were designed to gradually train them on how to correctly answer the questions and made it simple for me to check as in some case I just had to circle the missing point!

These are four assessments that I have prepared to assess the knowledge of my students on the topic of Nazi Germany. They are created out of past exam papers, exam-like questions out of my head / book and some internet research. They were designed to gradually train them on how to correctly answer the questions and made it simple for me to check as in some case I just had to circle the missing point!

This lesson was prepared for the year 11 Citizenship students (AQA full course). This lesson is on the topic of Active Citizenship. It includes settler, starter, learning objectives/keywords introduction slide, a quick 'Find Fours' activity to revise some keywords/ key groups, the slide with information on the tactics of pressure group campaigns (methods), a match-up activity to revise some keywords and exam practice materials. The latter is an example of a part B question with a model answer and success criteria, followed up by the self-assessment slide. The presentation ends with a cartoon for a plenary discussion.

These are the homework / classwork worksheets that I have prepared for my GCSE Citizenship class. They are easy to assess / mark and are prepared on the basis of official course book and revision guide.

It includes settler, starter, learning objectives/keywords introduction slide, a keywords match-up activity, a 'complete a table' activity on the topic, followed by the answers provided (and there is the possibility to introduce discussion / red pen activity!), some information on discrimination at work and the groups that are usually / might be discriminates (SMSC emphasis) and some exam practice on the questions of the Part B with success criteria, model answers and self-assessment. The presentation ends with a cartoon for a plenary discussion.

This lesson is about opposition to the Nazi rule from the army. The lesson includes a settler, example of how a perfect student's book should look like, a starter (exam question with a model answer, success criteria, an explanation of how to assess the answer of the peer, peer-assessment, SPAG stop slides), information research task with a diagram on the July Plot and Make your own Quiz Quiz trade task.

It includes settler, starter, learning objectives/keywords introduction slide, a quick match-up activity to revise some keywords, the slide with information on the Human Rights Act 1998, some activities for discussion of the latter (I especially like the activity where they have to guess the rights!) and exam practice materials. The latter is an example of a part B question (4 c) with a model answer and success criteria, followed up by the self-assessment slide. The presentation ends with a cartoon for a plenary discussion.

Three lessons for KS3 RE (I had used them for year ) on Christianity. We tried to do something different from what they had on Christianity a year before. Therefore, the lessons are related to the topics of prayer, nature of God and church. All of the lessons have starters, settlers, kagan-type activities and a writing exercise to practise PEE with self/peer-assessment. I have also prepared an assessment based on these lessons.

These are three lessons on Islam that I have prepared for the KS3 RE class. They all include settlers, starters, lesson objectives, keywords, Kagan-type activities featuring SMSC. Enjoy!
