This
module of 4 lessons is focused on the speaking part of the
exam exclusively. The following resources are mainly aimed
at lower ability students. This module is to freshen up their
knowledge of French in the last few lessons before the exam
so they can ‘SPEAK’ on the day of the exam. I
have used these resources with a lower ability Y11 group,
in which there was a majority of boys.
1. These
resources can be used in front of the class by the teacher
to reinforce previous teaching.
2. They can be used on an individual basis in the computer
room.
The teacher can look at the work pupils have done as they
can save their work or simply print the slides they want (as
handouts).
As the
PowerPoints are interactive: pupils can write in the boxes
provided. IMPORTANT: they have to write in View Show; it does
not work otherwise.
These
presentations focus on the speaking skill of the examination
and are divided in the different sections of this exam. (Role
play, presentation and questions and conversation)
All sounds are produced by clicking on the box
Sometimes the pupils are asked to record/repeat words. The
software used is “Audacity” which can be downloaded
free from the internet.
I have
produced these PowerPoints with the ability of my Year 11
students in mind. I have tried to highlight and revise the
areas in the speaking test that seemed to cause problem and
reoccur with more than one student. I have included key sentences,
revision tips, pronunciation exercises together with printable
resources and hyperlinks to useful websites. These resources
can be adapted for different groups.
The content
of the resources is to support and reach a ‘C’
grade.
