For homework, revision or just for fun ....

All pupils from Year 5 to Year 8 now have access to an online language lab facility (or Virtual Learning Environment) where they can do additional French listening, reading, writing and speaking exercises. They can enter their answers on-line and send them to me for marking. They are then marked and returned on-line. For now, the language lab will only be used in lesson time and not for preps. However, should boys wish to access it to do some extra French, the web address is “Schoolshape.com”  There is a link to the site below under Languages.  Amusez-vous! Mme. McClure.
