### **Accessibility &amp; Inclusion**

- Sentence builder booklet given to every student for each term/topic with key vocabulary structures to help students create sentences.
- Scaffolding and support in lessons through differentiated tasks, multiple choice answers and other strategies
- Seating plans ensure students benefit from peer and teacher support
- Identified grade 7-9 structures and vocabulary
- Challenge tasks to stretch students with high linguistic ability

### **Home learning (frequency and expectations)**

Home Learning is set once a week via Google Classroom and/or Show My Homework and students should spend about 90 minutes per week completing it. In addition to this, students are expected to revise vocabulary from their books regularly. We recommend 30 minutes every 2 days to build up a wide range of vocabulary needed for GCSE.

### **How parents / carers can support their child**

Take an interest in what your child has studied in their Spanish / French lessons and look through their book with them. Let them explain to you what they have learned. Make them learn vocabulary and question them to see how much they know from memory.

### **Possible careers:**

More traditional language careers include journalism, teaching, translation, international law and business.
