| Summary: | MFL teacher Anne Orde demonstrates how she uses sounds, actions, rhythm and melody to help her teach French grammar to pupils at Bridgewater High School in Warrington. Anne has developed her own techniques and finds that lessons which include kinaesthetic, auditory and visual cues for learning are highly effective - and enjoyed by her pupils. This programme demonstrates many of Anne's techniques, which can be replicated by other teachers. The physical movements Anne trains her pupils to use for improving the teaching of French grammar are not only arresting but also allow for active monitoring of pupil participation and understanding of the lesson. Anne explains how the movements have developed over time and where she gets her ideas from to link movements to grammar and vocabulary. MFL expert Hilary Meadowcroft, who has observed Anne's ideas, points out that such techniques can also reduce teacher workload as pupils will contribute to the lesson. |
