Modern Foreign Languages
Modern Foreign Languages: Spanish
Mrs Turner (Y5) is the Subject Lead for MFL.
This is the fourth year that we have studied Spanish at St. Mary’s. We will be using the Language Angels scheme of work and resources to ensure we offer a relevant, broad and vibrant curriculum that will inspire and excite our pupils using a wide variety of topics and themes. The overall aim is for all pupils to be willing and able to continue studying languages beyond Key Stage 2.
Some of our children have already had the opportunity to hear and speak different languages through their travel experiences and this is reflected in their enjoyment and excitement that they bring into school. In the past, we have enjoyed French days and this year we cannot wait to celebrate the languages we have in our world and the languages some of our children speak at home alongside English.
Travel and language is such an exciting element of life and we hope to continue that with virtual travel and creative experiences this year!
Our two MFL days this year will include celebrating:
- European Languages Day
- Spain's National Day
MFL Club
Our MFL Club runs on a Monday lunchtime during Autumn 2.
Our MFL Club is well supported and we are fortunate to have lots of expert pupils in school and adults who are willing to volunteer their time to visit us! Have a look at what we have done in previous years:
European Day of Languages
St. Mary's celebrated the European Day of Languages this year, with each class learning about a different European country. They had the opportunity to speak, listen, read and write in the language too.
