Can anyone help? Looking for a volunteer to teach Japanese enrichment to beginners at my Hackney school Wed afternoons. Teacher would be in the room and resources all
prepared and ready to teach. Super keen class of young, absolute beginners (Y7-9).
@KwasiKwarteng @DailyMirror I wish people would stop trying to shift the narrative in the comments. I understand the frustration but what the Mirror did here needs to be the issue. It’s fucking awful.
@wceebee @KwasiKwarteng @nadhimzahawi@DailyMirror Nothing to do with this story. Please don’t try to shift the narrative. I’m certainly no fan but his politics are completely beside the point in this instance.
@ruthowen22@lewizrs We’ll, obviously by also covering all the bullet points, avoiding repetition etc! I suppose I mean in terms of the complexity, the tenses tick the boxes.
@ruthowen22@lewizrs Yes, but the mark scheme stipulates that different tenses count as complexity for this question, so, remembering this is for students that struggle to conjugate, it makes sense to focus on the tenses: as you can definitely get full marks just by getting the three tenses correct
@ruthowen22@lewizrs With the 90 students can get full marks just by writing clearly in the 3 time frames (addressing the bullet points of course!) with a variety of adjectives and opinions.
@ruthowen22@lewizrs Also, if they attempt suelo + inf and get it wrong this may affect communication marks as it may constitute a lapse in communication.
@ruthowen22@lewizrs They can get 6 marks by just doing the three tenses and some variety of adjectives etc, but if they DON’T manage the time frames they can’t access the top band of marks. So, for students who are struggling, we should try to reduce cognitive load.
@ruthowen22@lewizrs Hi Ruth, it does indeed mention complex structures in the 6 marks, but there are no extra marks available, so if a student is struggling to conjugate we should focus them on the time frames as they lose marks if they can’t get these.
@lewizrs This is lovely, but if students are struggling to conjugate it may be a little complicated.
I would pare it down a little. There are no extra marks in the 90 words for complex phrases (suelo + inf & me hace feliz) It’s just about the tenses and communication. Hope that helps.
