Happy Easter! This is a second part to my previous post on GCSE oral preparation, which included some tips and activities for Y11s to practise the oral exam. Since I wrote that previous post and inspired by Naziha de Londres on Twitter and Russell Stannard on Youtube, I have created the following Padlet activity to practise, in a fun, relatable way, the photocard element of the GCSE exam.
I have looked for catchy, short TikTok videos on the three different Themes for AQA, downloaded them and add them to a Padlet.
The idea is for students to choose a video, watch it, and answer the questions, very similar to those found in the General Conversation and the Photocard, by recording them themselves with Padlet. As I have chose the Canva option in my Padlet, when students add their recording, they can link it to the video they are talking about.
I like this approach because, not only students can practise the GCSE questions in a fun way!!! BUT they can hear everyone's answers as well. This is KEY: to learn from each other and perform some assessment for learning among students by applying the oral AQA mark Scheme.
Of course, this activity can also be carried out using other apps, such as BookCreator, Flipgrid or just OneNote! I just chose Padlet, as students do not need to log in to access the activity and everyone can have access to everyone's input.
I hope it is useful!
Absolutely amazing! Thank you thank you!
