Homework in Modern Foreign Languages

While studying Spanish at New Mills School, our students encounter a significant quantity of new vocabulary that they will need to learn, remember and be able to recall. To aid students with this, homework in Spanish is based around reviewing lists of vocabulary that they have already seen, and used, in class. Students are then tested on their knowledge of these words in class.

Students in KS3 are set 20 words to learn each fortnight, whereas in KS4 vocabulary learning is set on a weekly basis.

Vocabulary lists are given to students for learning and self-testing at home, and are also uploaded to Quizlet and/or Memrise, which use flashcards and testing to assist memorising vocabulary. Students may set up their own Quizlet and Memrise accounts, and are responsible for these.
