- Dynamic and innovative tools to enliven language learning in the classroom
- Practical activities and approaches for teachers that encourage students to interact and actively engage with the language
- Ideas for using drama in MFL lessons, focusing on the development of confident speaking, good pronunciation and understanding the vocabulary of a language, whilst keeping the lesson fun and interactive
- Exercises that develop a physical and vocal memory of words, phrases and intonations
- Creative activities that elicit key vocabulary related to different topics
- Devising techniques that develop use of dialogue and narration
Places are limited and cost £30.

“Haven’t had such fun in ages and can’t wait to share the ideas with the staff. It was so relaxed and a great way to get to know people. I can’t believe how many games we played in so short a time and I came away feeling really energised and happy.” Maureen Waters, CILT Regional Support Group, Surrey.
