THS Languages

This week those studying ‘Sailmaker’ will be starting to think about character (this will probably take up at least the next two weeks). Pupils will be creating visualisers for each character in the play and will then start to read Act 1 whilst taking notes to add to the visualisers. 

This group  will be set a different task each day from BBC Bitesize. The link will be  posted  each morning. Tasks range from writer’s techniques, reading challenges and more. 

Pupils should send their work to Mrs Nelson ro Miss Murphy.

By now students should have finished preparing their presentation.  These will be assessed in class when students return to school in Phase 3.

This week students should start working on language using the language text book.  This will help to devlop the reading skills styarting today with paraphrasing and summarising.

 

S2 are continuing to work on the hobbies/helping in the house topic. This is the last week of the topic. There is a revision quiz on Edmodo to be completed by Friday of this week.

S2 are also completing a monopoly game this week. Pupils will choose a Spanish speaking country and complete at least 5 tasks about the country. All materials are on Edmodo and our Modern Languages glow page.

Thank you for all your hard work and have a good week S2!

S1 will continue to work on the school topic this week. We will be learning about how we get to school. As always, resources are on both Edmodo and our Modern Languages glow page. Please send your work to your teacher by Friday.

 

This will be the last week of learning about the school topic, so please revise what you have learned so far as there will be a quiz next week to complete.

Thank you for all your hard work and have a good week!

This week Miss MacPhail’s S2 will be  learning about nouns and verbs. They will practise identifying these words in exercises and then identify them in their own  writing . We will be moving on to amazing adjectives at the end of the week.

This group are working on their Spoken Presentation which at this stage has to be passed in order to sit the Higher exam.  They have materials which help them develop their skills and also materials on the topic which the will present on.

We are aiming to have this presentation work finished by next week so we can start some language work which will prepare students for the year ahead.

This group are reading the Alan Spence play “Sailmaker.”  The materials are available on the website and on Edmodo.  This week pupils are engaged in research which will help students when they come to work on the play.

Pupils should send their work to their teacher and should also remember that their teacher is there if they have questions or want something clarified.  This is a popular play which students generally love so we are hopeful S3 will enjoy this unit of work !
