Topic: Fitness and giving opinions on a Joe Wicks fitness app after watching a video clip.
Uses NCFE spec for task 1 in listening and speaking exam. Teacher created content following NCFE guidance documents. I hope it is accurate and welcome feedback in case this does not represent the criteria.
Created for a student who needs a lot of support around speaking and listening. Can be adapted to much freer discussion with more cognitively able students.
