For those of you who don't know much about me I was a full-time teacher of MFL in Hampshire and I'm now over 2 months into my maternity leave. I absolutely love being a mum and spending time with my little man (even if it has made me all mushy!), but teaching is a big part of who I am, so I also love that I'm still able keep up to date with the latest ideas for teaching and MFL via Twitter and the #mfltwitterati. Over the past couple of months, when I haven't been too busy staring at my cute little newborn, I've had some time to gather lots of new ideas which I'm actually quite excited to try out when I return back to work after my maternity leave. Don't get me wrong, I am not dying to go back to work, but the excitement to experiment with these new ideas makes the return to school seem much less daunting! One idea I'm looking forward to using is 'Thinking Quilts' which I believe is one of Karen Knight's ideas (Karen is a history teacher, but lots of her ideas could be adapted for other subjects! Follow her on Twitter @KKNTeachLearn). I've had a go at making my own version on the Spanish Tenses - this is free to download at the bottom of this blog post.  
Miss Meyrick (@MissMeyMFL) is another teacher I really admire - she has shared lots of great ideas on her blog recently, so it's definitely worth checking this out if you haven't already! I can't wait to try out Live Writes and Speaking Ladders and I've already emailed these ideas to my Head of Department! Hope you find this useful! Dannielle
