Jo Rhys-Jones: Flipped Learning
…and a bit of behaviour management!
Has teaching really changed? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gHzTUYAOkPM&feature=related
So what’s the real secret?
1. The lesson starts BEFORE you get in.
2. You can be autocratic or democratic – but always be consistent.
3. The devil makes work for idle hands...
4. Care – and SHOW you care.
5. Mark work & give feedback.
6. Expect the best. Insist on the best. Follow-up on the best.
7. Teaching is an ACT

Lesson Objectives

SEAL objectives: Motivation (red)

How are these examples of the word ‘objectives’ different?Which do your school use?
But ‘Flipped’ Learning is even more than that: Sugata Mitra

How can a teacher be more like a ‘grandmother’?

You have been given a summer holiday job in a zoo.... The zoo keeper has asked you to put the Latin labels on the animals’ enclosures. The English labels are already in place, so all you have to do is match them up..... Easy!
camelus dromedarius
felis tigris
hippopotamus amphibius
panthera leo
falco aesalon
canis lupus
ursus americanus
erethizon dorsatum
(This means, “I have a back
that irritates”)
Choose two of the animals you have just learned the names of in Latin.
Your job is to invent a long Latin name for each animal, and also a common name in English, which is easy to remember.
Here is an example: Scientific name: Feles Ruber Cauda Brevis Common name: Short-tailed red cat
You will need to use the correct word order: animal-adjective - body part - adjective.Don’t forget to draw a picture of each animal!
Flipped strategies for developing PLTS through MFL
• Use mystery pictures
•Use links between pictures: and, but
•Compare pictures : use comparative, because
•Say what happened before
•Say what might happen afterwards/next/later
•Read/Listen to clues to identify one specific picture

Why use ICT?
To develop cultural awareness, we need to give pupils the opportunity to:
‘work with authentic materials in the target language, including some from ICT-based sources (for example … books, video, satellite TV, texts from the Internet)’
https://hampshirelanguages.wikispaces.com/(cross-phase)
http://mflhampshire.wikispaces.com/ (brand new for KS3/4/5)
wikispaces to disseminate information, courses, latest news and events
and can be edited by you!
We also have a moodle and a traditional website for use by Hampshire teachers
