Teaching and Learning Resources

Below you will find my latest resources for Year 8, Year 9, Year 10 and Year11. Y12 and Y13 will follow soon! I do not normally Year 7 so I have only shared our departmental Sentence Builders but not other teaching resources as these would not be mine.  At the very bottom, for those teaching A Level, there's a IRP Schedule to help students to manage their individual work.

We do not use textbooks! We ditched them a long time ago, but we use audiofiles and resources at my own convenience from a combination of many, mainly the Viva and Mira series for both KS3 and KS4. Our listening and reading resources are taken, mainly, from these textbook files and Exampro. However, we also make many listening and reading resources ourselves, using our Sentence Builders. All our Sentence Builders are linked to Memrise courses for KS3 and Quizlet for KS4. All the resources shared are my own! Feel free to follow the links and download whatever is useful. 

Most of my resources are Smartboard Notebooks files, (sorry!). I do not use PowerPoint to teach so my sequence of lessons/resources are Smartboard Notebooks. The Notebook files will show the sequence of a whole string of lessons for a whole topic. 

At KS3, we teach only a topic per term, except in Y9 when we teach 4 topics within an academic year. We do 6 topics roughly in Y10 and 6 in Y11, finishing the syllabus by the end of February, that way, we dedicate around two months to do revision and prepare students for the oral exam.

On the topic of Media, we have traditionally studied, in depth, the film Voces Inocentes and the workbooks on the resources were taken from Rachel Hawkes resources, so those two PDF files are not my creation.  

We have decided to change the film choice to Coco this academic year, so a few resources on the film are shared but they are not fully completed.
