French

Years 1 & 2

Children continue their introduction to the French language in a fun way. The emphasis is on developing the children’s conversational skills through various games and songs. The children are encouraged to act out everyday situations with confidence and to establish and develop a French accent.

“I enjoy French and am developing a really good accent”.

Years 3-6

French continues during Key Stage 2. The emphasis throughout is on the spoken use of the language. This is achieved through role play, paired work, group work, singing and games. Importance is also given to listening skills – much of each lesson being conducted in French. Writing and reading skills are also developed. The geography, art and culture of France are also covered.
