This speaking booklet has been designed as an accompaniment to French Sentence Builders - TRILOGY - Part 1. It is divided into 15 units, which perfectly match the content of the original French Sentence Builders - TRILOGY - Part 1 book. Each unit includes a sentence builder modelling the target constructions and then a series of tried and tested Conti EPI speaking games, sequenced so as to pose a gradually increasing degree of challenge. The speaking activities included are: Oral Ping Pong Find Someone Who No Snakes No Ladders Staircase Translation Faster! Fast & Furious Communicative Drills Fluency Cards Things in Common Trapdoor Detectives & Informants Information Gap TasksThe activities are devised so as to scaffold oral communication by gradually moving from highly structured tasks to semi-structured ones. For best results, we recommend using this book to use in conjunction with the E.P.I. approach.

This resource is intended for GCSE exam revision with a focus on the consolidation of high-frequency and high-surrender-value words and lexical chunks. Since the content closely matches the vocabulary included in our French GCSE Revision Workouts, "Environment, Health & Career" the two books should be used together for best results. Consistent with Dr Conti's E.P.I. approach, the design of the 'quickies' is based on the key principle that durable vocabulary learning is more likely to occur when lexical items are processed deeply, repeatedly and at every level of grain, i.e. meaning, syntax, lexicogrammar, orthography. Accordingly, each quickie recycles the key vocabulary several times over; builds word associations; elicits deeper level of cognitive investment on the part of the learners and includes tasks which involve semantic processing and others which involve a focus on collocations, colligations, grammar and spelling. In order to cater for differentiated learning, we have included two sets of quickies per unit: a foundation-level set and a higher-level set, the latter including more challenging vocabulary and tasks. Each unit ends with a productive retrievalpractice assessment which may be used to test summatively the uptake of the vocabulary practiced in each unit or merely as an extra revision tool. The revision quickie's format has been tried and tested for years, and is based on the huge success of Dr Gianfranco Conti's GCSE French and Spanish revision quickies, the most downloaded language learning resources of all times on www.tes.com.Please note that both The Language Gym and SentenceBuilders.com websites are ideal supplements to this booklet. Both websites recycle every single lexical and structural item found in this book many times over via self-marking vocabulary and reading workouts, in addition to engaging and fun games and a powerful verb trainer.

This book is meant as a revision resource for GCSE Spanish. It can be used independently by students as well as for classroom practice. It contains 12 units which focus mainly on the themes of environment, health and career. Units start with a knowledge organiser, recapping the the target sentence patterns and lexical items, a series of receptive vocabulary building activities; a set of narrow reading texts and activities; a set of translation tasks. The tasks are graded in order to pose an increasingly demanding but manageable cognitive load and challenge and are based on Dr Conti's P.I.P.O. framework: - Pre-reading tasks (activation of prior knowledge & pre-teaching) - In-reading tasks (intensive exploitation of tasks) - Post-reading tasks (consolidation) - Output (pushed-output tasks)Consistent with Dr Conti's E.P.I. approach, each of the 12 units in the book provide extensive recycling of the target lexical items both within each unit and throughout the book, across all the dimensions of receptive and productive processing, i.e.: orthography (single letters and syllables), lexis (both words and chunks), grammar/syntax (with much emphasis on functional and positional processing), meaning and discourse. The recycling occurs through input-flooding and forced retrieval through a wide range of engaging, tried and tested, classic Conti tasks (more than 20 per unit). These include student favourites such as slalom writing, faulty translation, spot the missing detail, sentence puzzles, etc.
