Strategic Learning Networks Last 2 years - 355 SLN’s
in England 2,490 schools involved 4-15 schools per
network and each has lead school
2007-9 phase 1 and 2. Phase 3 –funding for
only 1 SLN per authority.
Enable teachers to work together to increase the quality and consistency of teaching and learning in KS3
To improve teaching and learning in MFL To disseminate our work To embed a change in practice across city
schools. To provide case studies and evaluations to
be submitted to CILT - national picture. To empower you all as “leaders” within the
city. To achieve a TLA accreditation (embedding
your learning and so helping to change your practice).

NetworkSummer Term, 2010
Share practice with colleagues across the city.
1) To have a better understanding of skills based teaching and learning and how this fits in with the new secondary curriculum.
2) To become familiar with a range of strategies and approaches and to share examples of good practice.
3) To plan the first part of your project.4) To reflect on how “impact” is going
to be measured.
By the end of today we will have identified: Features of skills based teaching and strategies and
approaches to promote this. Who you will collaborate with. A class/ year group/ unit of work with which the
activities/approaches/strategies will be trialed. How you are going to measure impact. Agreed actions to undertake before our next
collaboration date. An agreed date for the next collaboration! Any support/ materials/ preparation required.
Today’s Desired Outcomes
The new secondary curriculum
Ofsted on Key Stage 3:“Weaker features of teaching
included..too much emphasis on memorising individual words and phrases at the expense of teaching language skills”
“Too close an adherence to the course book was often a feature of mundane and unexciting learning.”

The 5 Strands
4. Knowledge about Language Pupils will develop their understanding of
how a language works and then how to manipulate it.
4.1 Letters and sounds
Yr 7 : apply knowledge of common letter strings, sound patterns, accents and other characters
Strand 4: KAL
Jolly phonics
4.1 Letters and sounds
1 PhonicsHow it works1. Take time to
embed the sounds of the language (VAK to strengthen memory)
2. Build on this knowledge at every opportunity
3. Improve on existing resources – increase the challenge

5. Language Learning Strategies Pupils will become increasingly able to
manage their own learning by selecting, using and evaluating different language learning strategies. (Cross-cutting strand)
5.2Memorising Yr 7/8/9 :discuss, compare and use a
range of techniques for memorising words, phrases, structures and spellings.

Collective Memory
Collective memory!How it works
1. Material to be memorised prepared on A4 sheet
2. Learners grouped in 4s or 5s
3. 1 learner from each group comes to front and get 20 secs to look at the material
4. Back at table, s/he tries to commit to paper
5. Discussion in groups – revise plan of action
6. All learners take turns – re-construction continues
7. Plenary – reviews learning on different levels: linguistic, cognitive, strategic

Skill This means:Did you use this today?
Give an example:
Identification of vocabulary Finding out the meanings of words
Memory Working out ways to store information in your mind and retrieve it again
Planning and adapting a strategy
Deciding how to do a task but perhaps changing your plan if necessary half way through
Noticing Looking really hard to try to see all the relevant details
Reflection Sheet
Q1 What did you do to get the most out of your memory in this task?
Q2 How effective were these strategies? What do you think is worth trying again in different situations?
Q3 Choose one skill from the 4 above and write down how it might be useful in other subjects OR at home

Y ahora, pelucas para perros Una empresa de California creó un nuevo producto para el mercado de accesorios de mascotas: pelucas para perros. Las pelucas fueron creadas en 2007 y fueron tan populares que las empresarias Jenny y Crissy Slaughter decidieron iniciar la producción en masa de las pelucas. Cada peluca cuesta en promedio US$30 y se comercializan en seis países y la respuesta ha sido tan positiva que otras empresas iniciarán la producción de artículos similares pero para gatos. Las primeras pelucas fueron inspiradas en personalidades como Paris Hilton y la modelo Betty Page. Además de pelucas, también hay zapatos, lentes de sol, collares personalizados y ropas para los animalitos. http://news.bbc.co.uk/hi/spanish/misc/newsid_7867000/7867371.stm

3. Intercultural Understanding Pupils will learn to recognise that people in other
countries and communities using the target language may have different beliefs and attitudes. In so doing they will develop a better understanding of their own lives.
3.2 Recognising different ways of seeing the world
Yr 7 : explore interests and opinions of young people and compare them with their own.

Example from the exemplification
Eg from exemplification
1) Pupils engage in language activities built around a comparison of photos of 2 classrooms in 2 very different countries where the TL is spoken.
Facilities are more basic in one classroom than in the other. The activities introduce or recycle language such as “One can see.... / There is no..../ there are more...”
2) pupils take part in a discussion in English in which they address questions such as :
In your view, do these photos mean that education is perceived as less important in one country than in another?
Do you think pupil motivation may be higher in one school than in the other?
Does every classroom in this country have the same facilities as the classroom in this photo?
How might you find out? Etc This discussion work all links to work on PLTS 3) pupils carry out simple research on schools
in one of the 2 countries, using a website, a paper resource or other media. (LLS 5.5 Using ref. Materials)
“The renewed framework and on-line cpd modules”
Exemplification of strands Series of e-learning units focusing on
improving MFL teaching and learning. www.nationalstrategiescpd.org.uk The units examine ways in which the
framework helps by providing a generic structure of objectives and how a variety of teaching strategies might be employed to enhance learning.
Planning collaborative project
Decide exactly what you would like to pilot. Need to decide who you would like to collaborate
with. Decide which year group/class /unit of work you
would like to work on. Agree actions to undertake before next collaboration
meeting. Agree next collaboration date as a group. Exchange e-mails. Decide upon any support/materials/preparation
required. Devise ways of being able to measure impact. Reminder that findings will be presented to and
shared at HOD’s network meeting in the summer term 2010.
CILT requires evaluation of work and impact (Feb) TLA: official accreditation for work carried out.
