#mflbluesky, is anyone on here teaching (or having taught) Au revoir les enfants for A-level French? trying to help a friend's daughter, but I have no materials on it. I can obviously make some links with the book I teach, Un Sac de Billes, but it would be good to get help from an expert on the film

Post on trying to teach the photocard based on teaching the pupils a coherent body of Spanish they can deploy. Will the markscheme mean this is a fool's errand?

I've been waiting for this for the last couple of years. This goes to all the Spanish teachers in the UK who work so hard, particularly those who introduced Spanish to MFL departments for the first time. It has been great to see the growth in popularity. #MFLBluesky www.tes.com/magazine/new...

My favourite activity at the moment: children can see the 10 words we are working on. I say 9 of them randomly, then they have to tell me which one I didn't say. Always goes well and they get to hear the vocab lots of times. Helps to prepare in advance 👍. #mflbluesky
