Rumble in the jungle
Description
At Oakhill Primary School in Stoke-on-Trent a topic-based approach to MFL is proving successful for developing vocabulary with Year 4 pupils. A rainforest theme has been explored with a role-play area and the ideas have been developed through ICT to included stop-frame animation. Class teacher Linda Alliband gives us an insight into the process through her Teacher Video called Rumble in the Jungle .Her film is followed by a discussion with Educational Consultant Adrienne Jones, Linda Alliband and her colleagues, Stella Clifford-Jones and Fiona Armstrong. They explore the benefits of this creative approach to pupils learning and discuss how the pupils have responded to the challenge of learning French and ICT within the same topic.They also consider the wider implications of using Teacher Video for assessment and CPD and conclude that video will be important both for teachers and pupils in the future.
