The serious business of GCSE MFL cramming!


With only two weeks to go before the GCSE German exam (and less for French - I know, Mr G!)  I set about putting together a booklet to focus my Year 11s' minds on how to get the most from using past papers.  It includes advice on the front page and then a series of tables where they examine the booklet, scan their vocabulary lists looking for the vocabulary they expect to hear and then a column for them to write in any words that they needed that they didn't know - with the intention that they will know it next time!

You can download the booklet from my TES resources here - I hope it helps you to get the most out of your last minute cramming! ;)

With so many new ideas to think about , the idea of designing a unit of work for MFL seems scarier and more complicated now than ever.  With new specifications on the horizon, though, it's something we all need to be thinking about to get the most out of the new courses.  We need to be ready to hit the ground running as soon as these new courses go live. With that in mind, I've decided to have a look at some of the issues surrounding the design of a new unit of work.

In the mad scramble to prepare our pupils for their speaking exam this year, I'm sure we've all felt like we are going to lose some (or ourselves)! I have made a booklet that will help them to write their own independent answers for questions based on the AQA specification. This should help them to work on their own at home and give them more control over the content of their speaking answers and also help them to prepare for their writing. I've popped it onto TES for £3.50. I hope you find it helpful and as stress-relieving for you and your pupils as I have. Here's an example of the sentence-builder pages.  I have written two questions and answers for each topic in each theme, so there are actually 49 questions with answers like the one below. Here's the link to the resource on my TES shop: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/-12661978
