Progression - Extending language

The Key Stage 2 Framework for Languages sets out a clear structure for progression over four years. Expectations and Outcomes describe what most children should be able to do by the end of the year.

The Learning Objectives for each of the three core strands, Oracy, Literacy and Intercultural Understanding show how to plan the next steps in a cohesive programme of learning. The two cross-cutting strands of Knowledge about Language and Language Learning Strategies underpin the core strands and help children to develop language learning skills for life.

Jigsaw

This colourful and enjoyable guessing game motivates children to manipulate language and build longer and more complex sentences in French. Children start by saying I think there is… and then incorporate nouns, adjectives and phrases. The game uses coloured jigsaw pieces which hide pictures on an interactive whiteboard.
