Using the QCA Schemes - Year 6

Through active methods and physical response children feel safe to explore and experiment with the new sounds. For those who prefer to listen and observe, they absorb the new language by watching others and gradually increase in confidence, until they too are joining in, responding to what they hear and see and engaging with others in short conversations and role-play.

Continents

Children stand up to play a ‘Montrez-moi’ game in which they listen and respond with actions to the French words for continents and weather phrases. They progress to listening and saying the sentences with the teacher and then to reading them from the board, while performing the actions.
