Each unit introduces children to the basic vocabulary and scaffolds their learning so their fluency and understanding progresses. Those pupils where Spanish is their native language are also challenged as Language Angels provide opportunities to broaden their Spanish skills. There are also options for the Spanish units to link to themes which are covered in History and Geography e.g. Vikings (Year 5).
Modern Foreign Languages
We believe that learning a foreign language at an early age opens children’s minds to language learning and broadens their understanding of grammatical structures. The educational tool used by teachers is Language Angels.
We are one family who look after and help each other.
We have 5 core values: love, truth, forgiveness, giving and understanding.
Love
Jesus wants us to love one another as he has loved us.
Truth
We can move forward more easily when we are truthful with each other.
Forgiveness
When we forgive one another, we can renew our friendships.
Giving
We think of others without expecting something in return.
Understanding
We make an effort to learn about and appreciate other people.
