Languages

We are fortunate to have two specialist MFL teachers within our staff and offer the children French and German throughout Key Stage 2.

The French programme follows the North Yorkshire scheme of work which provides the children with a range of singing, talking, reading and writing opportunities through a range of exciting and everyday topics.

Grammar, reading and writing skills are incorporated within the scheme to progress over the four year period.

Children also take part in regular exercise programmes to incorporate the French language with movement. 5-a-day Fitness: Disco en français can be accessed easily on Youtube for your reference.

Other useful songs on Youtube include:

jean petit qui danse karaoké

jean petit qui danse 2016

Children in Key stage 1 experience French in a more informal style through songs and everyday activities.

We use the modern foreign languages curriculum progression grid (link below) to support planning and assessment of this subject.
