French Planning for Class 3 (Y5 + 6)
Autumn term 1 and 2 – Daily routine and time – a 12 week topic learning how to tell the time in French, parts of the day (morning, afternoon, evening, night time), mealtimes. And talking about our daily routines using present tense. Year 5 and 6 will also do some French phonics and high number work (1-100).
There will also be the opportunity to do some special day/festival topics over the term with the children (eg. bonfire night and Christmas). These fun lessons allow us to consolidate vocabulary learnt over the term and find out about different customs in French speaking countries.
