Ringing the changes! Isle of Wight Languages Conference

Hello!
A bit later than promised for this post (I blame the M25 that was not kind to me last night!), I want to say first how good it was to meet you all (and see, unexpectedly, familiar faces too!).  It was a great event in a great venue so thank you to Peter Shreeve for organising it so well. 
I know several people won't need this download as there were USBs aplenty yesterday but if you do, here here the material from the my conference session yesterday:

I hope it's useful. 
Best,
Rachel

Hi Rachel,
Despite commenting on this post, I actually saw your presentation about new KS3 ideas at the Flying High event at Loughborough earlier in the year. I was incredibly inspired and have used many of your ideas. I am now looking at how to tweak what we've done this year in Y7, for next year's intake and am really keen to have a go at your Eurovision idea. I have your presentation which roughly maps out the events, but was wondering if you had anything in a bit more detail regarding how you plan this and (sorry to be needy!!!) any ideas for songs that have worked/might work particularly well in French and German?
Thanks in anticipation!!
