The
enthusiasm and excitement surrounding the Rio 2016 Olympics makes it an ideal
topic for teaching primary French at the end of the summer term!
In
KS2, all year groups have been busy working on a wide range of Olympic themed activities
which promote speaking, listening, reading and writing, including reading
passages about sports, the Olympics and Brazil, surveys and much more!
We introduced
this topic by watching this engaging videoclip which highlights some key facts
about the Olympics.
We
discussed the significance of the Olympic rings, the Olympic torch and the
Olympic mascots. The children also learnt
some background information on France at the Olympics.
We
followed on by introducing the 28 Rio 2016 Olympic sports in French! All children focused on being able to
understand the Olympic sports in French and being able to pronounce them
correctly.
Y3 followed
on by completing word searches, crossword puzzles and other word games and
activities linked to these sports.
Y4 revised
how to express simple opinions in French and then wrote some simple sentences
about whether or not they liked various Olympic sports.
Y5
& Y6 revised how to express opinions and use adjectives in French! They then wrote a paragraph in French about
whether or not they liked various Olympic sports and stated why!
Impressive
work at the end of a busy term!
Bravo
les enfants!
