The school is in a very deprived area and pupils are very demotivated towards learning languages. The ability range goes from nearly illiterate to just about able pupils. Therefore I am very keen to collect ideas on motivating and helping these pupils to achieve something they can be proud of. I would also be interested in any ICT ideas for our pupils and any ideas on how to write materials specifically aimed at low ability pupils. Reading and writing is particularly difficult. Any help would be gratefully appreciated. By the way I read all the messages and follow links with great interest. Thanks to you all. Rachel.
