:
“Very, very simple idea that I tried out
yesterday with a class of shy, reserved
learners in Year Four. We have been
learning numbers 1-31 so that we can go on
to say when our birthday is.”
c
1) For this activity, I said a number in French, and
rather than them telling me the English translation,
they had to tell me the colour of the line it was on. So,
if I said 'vingt-deux', they had to say orange. I knew
the higher ability pupils would also be able to tell me
which number I had said, but I wanted to give more
confidence to the lower ability/more nervous learners.
We have already done colours, so this was a chance
to revise colours as well. It worked really well.
2) Then I told them that I was going to say a number
and they had to highlight it (they had a copy on
Showbie on their ipads.) They seemed to enjoy this
more passive activity, compared to when I tried to
play Lotto and they just couldn't cope! An option
without an ipad would be to ask pupils to whisper to
each other which number they think it is and then ask
for a volunteer to come up and circle it on the board.
3) I then asked for volunteers to give me any number
in French from the 'bleu' line and the 'rouge' line etc.
This gave them some choice and independence.
4) I finished off by asking them to tell me something
interesting about any one of the numbers (based on
what we have learned). One pupil said that 21 and 31
were 'poky finger' numbers (because when we say 21
and 31 I make them poke their finger in the air to
remember the "et"). Another pupil told me lots of the
numbers on the purple line ended in "ze". They could
have said anything at all - it was just to coax
something out of the pupils who are reluctant to
speak in French, but still need to feel that they are
involved and making progress.
Not rocket science by any means, but thought I would
share as it took me about 45 seconds to prepare, but
the output was great.

IDEAS
© Jenny Bell, Sue Cave and Jean Haig
sounds and actions – make words – letters and sounds – predict spelling – spell with
actions
Response from Rachel Hawkes re old vs new primary SOW…
there is both continuity and change. Take phonics.
Both SOW teach the sound-writing relationship explicitly, with source words, gestures
etc.
The three main differences are:
i) pace/spread – the new SOW rolls phonics out more gradually
ii) revisiting – phonics practice in every lesson and all SSC are revisited at least one
every year
iii) use of unknown words – new activities involve transcribing and reading aloud
unknown words.
So, continuity (Papa va à la cabane song is still in!) but also other practice activities to
consolidate.
People who like the old scheme might want to dip into the new one for additional
phonics practice.

  • 12. : “Very, very simple idea that I tried out yesterday with a class of shy, reserved learners in Year Four. We have been learning numbers 1-31 so that we can go on to say when our birthday is.” c 1) For this activity, I said a number in French, and rather than them telling me the English translation, they had to tell me the colour of the line it was on. So, if I said 'vingt-deux', they had to say orange. I knew the higher ability pupils would also be able to tell me which number I had said, but I wanted to give more confidence to the lower ability/more nervous learners. We have already done colours, so this was a chance to revise colours as well. It worked really well. 2) Then I told them that I was going to say a number and they had to highlight it (they had a copy on Showbie on their ipads.) They seemed to enjoy this more passive activity, compared to when I tried to play Lotto and they just couldn't cope! An option without an ipad would be to ask pupils to whisper to each other which number they think it is and then ask for a volunteer to come up and circle it on the board. 3) I then asked for volunteers to give me any number in French from the 'bleu' line and the 'rouge' line etc. This gave them some choice and independence. 4) I finished off by asking them to tell me something interesting about any one of the numbers (based on what we have learned). One pupil said that 21 and 31 were 'poky finger' numbers (because when we say 21 and 31 I make them poke their finger in the air to remember the "et"). Another pupil told me lots of the numbers on the purple line ended in "ze". They could have said anything at all - it was just to coax something out of the pupils who are reluctant to speak in French, but still need to feel that they are involved and making progress. Not rocket science by any means, but thought I would share as it took me about 45 seconds to prepare, but the output was great.

  • 15. IDEAS © Jenny Bell, Sue Cave and Jean Haig sounds and actions – make words – letters and sounds – predict spelling – spell with actions
  • 16. Response from Rachel Hawkes re old vs new primary SOW… there is both continuity and change. Take phonics. Both SOW teach the sound-writing relationship explicitly, with source words, gestures etc. The three main differences are: i) pace/spread – the new SOW rolls phonics out more gradually ii) revisiting – phonics practice in every lesson and all SSC are revisited at least one every year iii) use of unknown words – new activities involve transcribing and reading aloud unknown words. So, continuity (Papa va à la cabane song is still in!) but also other practice activities to consolidate. People who like the old scheme might want to dip into the new one for additional phonics practice.
