The magic of story time

Stories provide a motivating and memorable way to develop language, thinking and social skills in the primary classroom.
Stories also link learning English to culture and content from other areas of the curriculum, as well as to children’s real life interests and concerns. This practical session explores the magic of story time in engaging children’s hearts and minds in active,
experiential learning and presents a wide range of enjoyable and effective teaching ideas which promote class participation and active language use.

Testing, training, or teaching with ‘sprawdzian’ in mind

Now that we are finally in possession of all key information about sprawdzian szóstoklasisty, we can confirm the claims we’ve been making: the test is going to be neither completely trivial nor massively overwhelming. Yes, the list of structures is unnervingly long, the vocabulary load considerable, and the visuals require some skill of interpretation. Not to mention the challenge of copying with distractors, the need to focus attention when listening, the discipline of double-checking etc. But, and
that’s quite crucial in my belief, most of these exam skills can and should be developed as part of good everyday teaching, spaced out across the three-year programme. Are you thinking: very well, but how exactly?!
This is where this session comes in. I want to explore various cognitive and linguistic challenges that sprawdzian brings in and show you that there is no need for exam panic or obsessive testing, but a lot of room for exam-friendly teaching, with central role
of slow, incremental recycling. Come along to find out all the details.

Conjunction junction: text-centred teaching of writing

An in-depth analysis of the changes to the format of matura exam as of 2015, particularly the task types and modified writing assessment criteria, shows at least one major novelty. It is a significant increase in the role of internal structure, coherence, cohesion and general linguistic quality of text, in both receptive and productive tasks. Needless to say, an ability to analyse and produce high quality texts in English is not something that students are born with. Nor something that will simply emerge naturally
as a positive side effect of good teaching. It has to be taught, very explicitly. The question is how.
That’s just what I intend to address in this practical session, particularly as regards students’ ability to write high-scoring texts of their own, at basic and extended level of the new exam.
