I also work with the local University with PGCE MFL students, an area of my work I thoroughly enjoy. I am passionate about teaching and learning, and have a particular interest in the teaching of grammar and of literary texts to develop reading, writing and listening skills.

a presentation to run with mini whiteboards to demonstrate ideas of how they can be used across subjects to enhance learning, making progress, keep focus, pace and engagement throughout a full lesson, moving through levels and grades. I will have to update it as there are more slides I will be using in the future.

I designed this power Point for a fairly bright group of year 11 whom I thought could benfit more from working in pairs or in group using this power point as a starter. I used the verbs from Expo Higher as a bse in order to dvelop awareness of how to improve a conversation and opinions. The first slide is a starter activity to make the students reflect on their knowledge of verbs and phrases from a listening activity completed during the previous lesson.

This is to help students with pronouncing and recognising various sounds , which they may find hard. Parts are highlighted to support students in recognising patterns. My year 8 enjoyed this, even year 10, dead simple, but works. Tried and tested !

This is to help students to learn the good higher grages habits. the test sheet can be used as a starter activity, lesson by lesson, to support students in retaining and understanding how to extend and develop writing and speaking. The test sheet can also be used to help students adapt to their own sentences. My year 10s really found it useful, I hope you do too. !

This can be used either as a support grid in lessons. I have also cut out all the different tables, laminated them and from the verb pattern sheet. I then offer students options to choose which tense they need the most help with, then they get the card for the whole lesson, or part of of the lesson. Tried and tested !

This is to support students with tenses and recognising patterns. This can be used a a support sheet or you may decide to cut out the grids and laminate and ask student to choose the cards with the tenses they need the most help with. I will add another resource with the conditional, and even some simple phrases using the subjunctive to stretch the more able.

Designed and used this using listening strategies. The cards on one of the slides with the pictures of anilamls need to be cut up and laminated ( for keeping ) and given to students. This is to help them concentrate and focus on what is necessary to listen out for ... it normally works well at Key Stage 3 but I also used it early in y10 , you can make everything harder !

The 3 remaining worksheets are for differentiation- gap fill with no help, gap fill but verbs in the infinitive have to be placed in the imperfect and gap fill with students selcting the correct verb in each line.

I found this which I created about 4 years ago ! Thought I'd share this as it brings good memories of my previous school, summer periods and welcoming the year 6 in our mFL department. Please amend for your own use and do what you want with it, I used a mini soft ball as well etc.. card sort etc.. I have added the story, apologies for leaving it late for those who asked, you can exploit this in many ways, listening for gist then reading for gist etc..
