Curriculum Implementation
Children have weekly lessons in French throughout Key Stage 2, using the Rigolo programme of study in addition to other resources. Areas covered include: numbers, colours, house and home, in town, food and drink, the classroom, clothes, transport, sport and hobbies.
Children are encouraged and supported to develop their speaking and listening skills through conversational work, singing activities and games. As confidence and skill grows, children record their work through pictures, captions and sentences.
- displays are used to remind children of key vocabulary
- practical activities, songs and games are used to help improve memory and recall.
- Visual prompts are used to support children in translating new vocabulary.
Impact
Our children will be able to read, understand, write and express themselves in French – at an appropriate level – using accurate vocabulary and intonation in the French language. Our children will leave Huncote Primary school with a solid foundation upon which to build future skills and knowledge and will be well prepared for the next stage of their language education.
