The idea behind the award-winning ‘Adopt a Class’ scheme is to buddy a language undergraduate, who is about to embark on their year abroad, with a year 8 class during the final term of the academic year. The student visits the school during this term to meet the class and talk about what it is like to study languages, their experiences with languages so far and how they have opened doors to them. The student then goes on their year abroad and keeps in regular contact with the class (now in year 9) by emailing, sending postcards, sending resources and writing blogs etc.

This contact with the country brings the language alive for the pupils and shows them the relevance of learning a language. The teacher and student discuss beforehand any special topics that might be studied so that relevant resources can be sent back. Following their return, the student then re-visits the class (now in year 10) to talk about their experiences and to answer any questions that the pupils may have. The hope is that this enthuses the pupils and encourages them to choose a language at GCSE level. Also, all correspondence will come through the teacher so the student and pupils will never be in direct contact.

We currently have 9 students linked with 9 schools in South Wales and many more linked with schools in North and Mid-Wales.

Rydym yn llawn cyffro i lansio ein cystadleuaeth farddoni amlieithog, Mamiaith Ail Iaith 2014, mewn partneriaeth â Prifysgol Caerdydd, Llyfrgell Caerdydd, Wyas of Sieeng a Gwasg Prifysgol Rhydychen. Bydd y gystadleuaeth yn rhoi cyfle i bobl ifanc ledled y wlad ddathlu ieithoedd eu cartref ynghyd â bod yn greadigol gyda’r ieithoedd eraill maen nhw’n eu dysgu yn yr ysgol.

We are very excited to launch our multi-lingual poetry competition Mother Tongue Other Tongue 2014 in partnership with Cardiff University, Cardiff Library, Wyas of Sieeng and Oxford University Press. This will give young people across the country the opportunity to celebrate their home languages and also to get creative in other languages they are learning at school.

Bwriad y cynllun 'Mabwysiadu Dosbarth', sydd eisoes wedi ennill gwobr, yw creu cyswllt rhwng myfyriwr israddedig, sydd ar fun mynd ar ei blwyddyn dramor, a dosbarth o ddisgyblion blwyddyn 8 yn ystod tymor olaf y flwyddyn academaidd. Bydd y myfyriwr yn ymweld â'r dosbarth i wneud sgwrs ac i drafod pwysigrwydd ieithoedd, eu profiadau gydag ieithoedd a'r cyfleoedd maent wedi cael o ganlyniad i'w sgiliau iaith. Yna fe fydd y myfyriwr yn mynd ar ei blwyddyn dramor ac yn cadw cysylltiad rheolaidd gyda'r dosbarth (erbyn hyn ym mlwyddyn 9) trwy ddanfon e-byst, cardiau post, adnoddau a thrwy ysgrifennu blogiau ayyb.

Mae'r cyswllt hwn gyda gwlad dramor yn dod a'r iaith yn fyw i'r disgyblion ac yn dangos iddynt hwy bwysigrwydd dysgu iaith. Cyn ymadael, mae'r myfyriwr yn trafod gyda'r athro unrhyw bynciau penodol fydd yn cael eu hastudio fel bod yr adnoddau a ddanfonir yn berthnasol. Wedi dychwelyd mi fydd y myfyriwr yn ymweld â'r dosbarth (nawr ym mlwyddyn 10) i drafod eu profiadau ac i ateb unrhyw gwestiynau. Mae'n bwysig nodi hefyd y bydd yr holl gyfathrebu yn digwydd rhwng yr athro a'r myfyriwr, ni fydd y myfyrwyr fyth mewn cyswllt uniongyrchol gyda'r disgyblion.

Ar hyn o bryd mae yna 8 o fyfyrwyr mewn cysylltiad ag 8 o ysgol De Cymru ac mae yna lawer mwy hefyd yng Nghanolbarth a Gogledd Cymru.

Heddiw rydym yn lansio Cystadleuaeth Genedlaethol y Spelling Bee ble gwelir disgyblion blwyddyn 7 dros Gymru gyfan yn cystadlu yn Ffrangeg, Almaeneg, Sbaeneg a Chymraeg Ail Iaith gyda'r nod o ennill teitl Pencampwr y Spelling Bee Cenedlaethol 2014. Mae'n hynod o gyffrous eleni gan fod yna amrywiaeth o adnoddau i gefnogi'r myfyrwyr sy’n astudio'r ieithoedd yma ac yn cymryd rhan yng Nghystadleuaeth Genedlaethol y Spelling Bee wedi cael eu datblygu ac fe ellir gweld y rhain ar Wefan Newydd y Spelling Bee.

Fei crëwyd gan Adran Adnoddau Addysgol CBAC ar gyfer Llwybrau at Ieithoedd Cymru. Maent yn cynnwys gweithgareddau i ddysgu’r wyddor yn yr iaith darged, gemau geiriau a phrofion sillafu gyda’r nod o wella sillafi, annog ynganiad cywir a chodi hyder. Yn ogystal â hyn, mae yna adran ble y gall myfyrwyr ymarfer fel petaent yn y gystadleuaeth.

I gofrestri, ewch at yr Adnoddau a Dogfennau i Athrawon a dewisiwch Ffurflen Gofrestru'r Spelling Bee 2013-14. Danfonwch eich ffurflenni at:
