Great, looking forward to seeing you at Language World. I'm doing a talk, so please drag some people along! I did one at a conference in the US one time and three people came. Including two people who both thought they were the moderator of that session!

What scheme of work would you recommend for years 5 and 6 French (They only begin the learn in Year 5 at the moment)? Like you I prefer to improvise but I do have to show that I follow a scheme of work. I am not a trained teacher. However I tutor GCSE French students and my own children who have gone through this stage, so I base a lot of what I teach at Primary level and what I see as the gaps later on, trying to keep it fun. I am forever repeating and building on what they have already learned. My main constraint is 'time' as the lessons are short. I have lots of ideas which would never fit into the contraints of the lessons. I am not always in the same class as a TA and we have mixed year-groups, so it is rather complicated at times.
Thanks.

Hi lisa
No, I don't think we've met. I put myself down as Birmingham but I actually teach in the Sandwell borough. Thanks though.

Nope, I'm not Richard Hammond. By the way, who is he? I read your profile. I am secondary trained, but once I moved to primary I never looked back. So much better!

Hi Lisa - I'm coming to the PL show in Liverpool too now! Someone dropped out and I'm in!

Have just spotted my Father Christmas counter in the sidebar is showing some very strange numbers - think it might have been fiddled with - oh well, will stick to google analytics!

Looking forward to Christmas!

Hi Lisa,
thanks for your message I really appreciate the help. I was just wondering if you know any further information about the development of MFL in the primary curriculum? I have a meeting with my dissy tutor tomorrow so will find out the next stages of my research, Would it be ok to keep in touch with you? hope you are ok, Maria x
P.S Jo has told me you are a bit of a whizz with ICT? Don't mean to be rude but do you have access to video conferencing in school?

¡Hola Lisa! Estoy bien. ¿Y tú, cómo andas? ¿Sabes que vivo cerca de Sevilla? Tengo una casa rural - www.casacampana.com - en un pueblo precioso y tengo muchas ganas de que vengan aquí profersores, sean o no aficionados de Speekee. Es un sitio perfecto para aprender más español, participar en una cultura de flamenco, tapas etc. A ver si podemos organizar algo... Un abrazo, Jim
