I am currently a Head of Modern Languages in a large secondary school in the North East Of England. 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. I am currently working on developing a range of resources to support the study of Le Petit Nicolas and the series of books.

the wheel ! My students love it ! try it to try and see who remembers what, the numbers could be allocated to students who are picked to answer questions about the lesson or could be hiding a question about the lesson. Can be class or peer activity ! Bonne chance

Please follow the link on youtube ( pink martini ou est ma tete official video ) Lovely song for the past tense, parts of the body and even the direct object pronoun. The cards are for pupils to show as they hear the matching idea in the song. I have now added the audio file, I hope it works

Hopefully this will help in motivating students who can find it hard to understand the concept of story teeling/ naarative, it did help my y9. I used the card sorts to support ( the sngle words being the starter then used the phrases for sequencing to see if they could reconstruct the story. Could also read and ask students to show you the correct phrase .

Now this was the starting point of a new Scheme of learning introduced for the first term as a transition module. I will add the rest later as the edited version contains listening activities on food and recipes, and more on foods,, with some elements of grammar.

Just a bit of a revamp from ' spécial vacances' to support less able students, with opportunities to work on literacy through vowel gaps, pronunication and words snake, to learn the conditional and help in achieving levels 5. Use and adapt as you wish.

I created this Power Point for an hour with the year 6 Primary pupils coming for their induction day. My aim was to work on skills and the resource was shared with all staff involved in MFL. The feedback given by staff and pupils was positive so I am hoping it will help others now.

just to explain the conditional, set objectives and outcomes and guide speaking and writing about ideal holiday. The second power point contains two extra slides, one has demonstrated the easy and harder way to use the conditional , one slide is called 12 verbes avec le de as it gives you a chance to roll two dice, then ask students to write the matching verb onto a mini whiteboard using the easy or harder option

designed with grade improvement in mind, keeping engagement and motivation through a nice topic ( holiday ) , this will also be used to develop confidence in speaking skills and in conjunction with mini whiteboards. I am now adding three differentiated controlled tasks ( as I have a wide range of ability ) if it helps you ( for AQA ) Now with updated version and correction of accents

Year 11 French GCSE Les metiers Speaking

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.
