Meeting – 27th February 2008
Hello all,
5 of us met on Wednesday, with a surprise guest: Patri from out PGCE! It was lovely to see her, and she hopes to come again in the future.
This week’s focus was “Golden Nuggets” and we came up with and discussed the following ideas:
-
editing PowerPoints from the outline screen (see video)
-
following Blogs of MFL teachers who focus on ICT: Joe Dale, José Picardo etc
-
using http://www.ver-taal.com/ for Spanish listening exercises
-
twittering – technology enabling us to communicate more
-
using ELE (Español como Lengua Extranjera) websites, especially for A Level Spanish. Some examples are: www.todoele.net, www.zonaele.com and www.sm-ele.com .
-
using songs to hammer home certain grammatical points. James Burch then got us a copy of some of the grammar songs that this year’s PGCE group have created. It also reminded us of what we did on our PGCE.
-
Sue Mayor gave a rendition of one her her songs, with a verb paradigm, to the tune of Do a Deer
We agreed that the next meeting would be Tuesday 22nd April, and we hope to see each other on 29th March at a social in Preston.

Hi all, was surprised to find this blog as a hit when searching for some reward stickers! Well done to all concerned. Great to see that you are still out there sharing your good practice. I am still working in Liverpool, and still teaching in the St Martin’s way, of course (although simply cannot spend as much time on my resources as I would like to since becoming a mummy) keep up the good work x
