MFLMagic In mixed ability sets,I always teach to the top, however, there’s a lot of scaffolding support for the low attainers:SBs. I do a lot of adaptive teaching:practice requiring short/long answers, target ss individually & always start from easiest to most demanding. MWBs work best

MFLMagic I try to sit a low ability with a high one. The kids actually help each other. It the same lots of Knowledge organisers, sit lowers nearer from so I can get to them quick. Sometimes I make differentiated sheets but not so often.

MFLMagic Carousel with different activities for fnd/ hgh students?

MFLMagic It's tough. I just make my peace with knowing everyone gets their turn to be first priority. Ultimately I've got pupils who are A-level ready in with others who are like Y7s - you can't work miracles.

MFLMagic We have large mixed ability classes too. In Yr10, we teach high, & adapt resources to stretch the most able & scaffold to support lower ability (we use a lot of your wonderful resources!) As we get closer to the exams, in Yr11, I seat students in H & F & do more carousel work

MFLMagic For listening & reading, i use scaffolding & in Yr11 use 2 different tasks, targeted to H or F. In writing, we actually start simple and build up - this covers all levels & helps to boost the F students as they see how easy it is to add detail and complexity.

I've uploaded this I'd it's of use to anyone! mflmagic.com/a-level.html

Supposed to be marking Casa de Bernarda Alba essays but I'm too incensed 😂

On a lighter (but possibly just as depressing note) Bernarda Alba shouts "matadla" on the beach according to one of my y13s 😂

I'm having roaring success with my Y11 French just setting 1 of the past or future bullets from a 90 word as a long starter (minus any time frame so they have to actually read it). Pupils are writing loads at speed and improving rapidly. Makes the real writing exam seem so easy.

1/3 Language teachers know that careers advice for students can be quite traditional -future teachers, translators or interpreters? If you know of a career path a language has helped with, can you tell the story? A Google doc for ideas for ALL to share: tinyurl.com/CareersMFL

Love this!

Same here 😂

Planning some revision for A Level paper 2 🙈
