As promised, here are the slides from my sessions in pdf format:
Secondary session 1:
Writing
In this session we will consider the reasons why many teenagers dislike writing in English and attempt to identify those aspects of writing skills with which teenagers tend to experience the most difficulties. Then we will consider a range of simple and practical classroom activities which can help to equip students with the skills and strategies they need to succeed with writing.

Secondary session 2:
Project work in and outside the classroom
Project work is a tried and tested approach for extending topics creatively, personalising English lessons and revitalising jaded students. So how can we get the best out of projects in the digital age? This session will offer some practical and time-saving ways to make project work more engaging for ‘digital natives’, while also looking at how we can give traditional projects a new twist.

Primary session:
Writing
Learning to write in English can be hard for younger learners who are just getting familiar with English. What are the best ways to help them develop? We will look at some simple and effective classroom activities. We will also think about upper primary students, especially those who find writing boring and difficult. What can we do to make writing more enjoyable for them? We will try out a variety of fun and imaginative ideas to help learners write effectively and creatively.
