"Clic! brings France into the classroom." - Nick Brown, Director of Language College, Lincoln Christ's Hospital School, Lincoln "Clic! is up-to-date and relevant for the student and they enjoy using it. It is clearly laid out, there are lots of resources to extend and support the Student Book, and it offers lots of excellent ICT material." - Claire Baty, Head of Modern Foreign Languages, Wimbledon High School, London "The different pathways are a useful way to ensure all students cover the same topics in line with their ability. We use Star with lower sets and Plus with the higher sets." - Trudy Oldroyd, Head of Modern Foreign Languages, St Augustine's School, North Yorkshire "Clic! looked fresher and different to other courses we
were using. It is easy to use, it offers good differentiation and deals with subjects that interest the students. The textbook is attractively presented for learners and clear to follow. The cultural element is strongly felt - something that all learners enjoy. Year 7 boys like the modern feel. The videos provide a different medium from traditional tapes/books, and are good for extension work since the language used is of a higher level." - Liz Ellicott, Head of Modern Foreign Languages, Yateley School, Hampshire "We use the OxBox - it is great! It presents material and offers lots of practice." - Nick Ullman, Head of Modern Languages, Billericay School, Essex "This is our second year of using Clic! Sometimes the content seems challenging but with appropriate planning, even
lower ability students will manage. The new Student Books for lower attaining students are also suitable for primary schools. There is also a lot of content for top set students and to even help with the first year of GCSE (Book 3). The course works well with the Renewed Framework as there are many activities that lead to progression. The Teacher Books are quite helpful as they explain fully the purpose and level of each activity. We are also using the OxBox and our students like it. It is lively and attractive and the videos are engaging. We find it easy to use and we are just about to start customising the resources. We have found the resources strengthen transfer and transition by building on the language and grammar the students have already learnt. The speaking tasks also encourage
use of previously learnt language." - Keisha Reid, Modern Foreign Languages Subject Leader "OxBox is a fantastic tool for both students and teachers. All of the material is very useful." - Sophie Rey, Billericay School, Essex "The blogs are really good. The videos with language at 'normal' speed are excellent." - Sue Bayliss, MFL Progress Leader, The Latimer Arts College "I love it! It is fantastic, very exciting, engaging for students. I particularly love the grammar aspects, video clips and the idea of ICT tasks." - Comment at most recent focus group about Year 7 sample unit "The new Clic! books from OUP are nothing if not ambitious. Aiming primarily, as far as I can tell, to allow differentiated teaching from the same resource, they provide three
textbooks: one for the 'reluctant learner' (access), one to cover the middle ground (star) and one for the gifted linguist (plus). The textbooks are accompanied by a comprehensive and highly detailed CD of resources which includes some excellent videos to introduce even the beginner to French culture and language." - ISMLA Review
