YEAR 5 FRENCH 
UPDATE 30 mars 2020
DID YOU KNOW… On 1st April (le premier avril) French children like to play a trick – they try to stick a paper fish on someone’s back! Maybe you could have a go yourself this Wednesday!
LATEST LINKS FOR YOU TO TRY:
Digital dialects is a useful website where French native speakers say the vocab you are practising. Try these links:
Also… keep going with Duolingo; I have seen lots of you are using this, well done! Educandy is also very useful for practising the topics we have covered in class. Bon travail!

PRIMARY BEE : AN UPDATE
Our Y5 and Y6 pupils have finished their testing for the Foreign Languages Primary Bee and have done fantastically well! They learned 40 high frequency words and then had to say as many as possible with clear enunciation within one minute. Well done to all our pupils who took part in this initiative!
Another initiative in my inbox:
‘Learn a Language: French for Families. The PowerLanguage team would like to offer their support to children and their families whilst they wait out the reopening of schools. Why not take this opportunity to learn French together as a family? We have opened up our successful French for Families course with no subscription fee until the end of June 2020! Go to powerlanguage.courses/forfamilies to start learning! Amusez-vous bien !’
