Bonjour! Bienvenue! Comment ca va?

Hello! Welcome! How are you?

At Kiwi, we start learning French as our Modern Foreign Language in Year 3.

We teach French using the Language Angels. We cover a range of fun and encouraging topics throughout KS2. Our French curriculum is taught on a bi-termly cycle (terms 2, 4 and 6). The purpose of the learning is to develop the children's 4 key language skills; listening, speaking, reading and writing. This will be done through a mixture of written tasks, conversations and some role play to further explore the learning.

Why Learn French?

• It's Fun! 🎈 French is a beautiful language with lots of exciting words and sounds.
• Travel the World! 🌍 French is spoken in many countries. Imagine ordering a croissant in Paris or saying "Bonjour" to new friends!
• Boost Your Brain! 🧠 Learning a new language helps your brain grow and makes you smarter.

Let's Start with Some Basics:

• Bonjour (bohn-zhoor) - Hello
• Merci (mehr-see) - Thank you
• S'il vous plaît (seel voo pleh) - Please
• Au revoir (oh ruh-vwahr) - Goodbye

Did You Know?

• French is the official language of 29 countries!
• The Eiffel Tower in Paris is one of the most famous landmarks in the world.

Throughout our Language Angles scheme, the children will be able to play some games and karaoke which relates to their current topic- https://www.languageangels.com/schools/login 

We enhance our MFL teaching through enrichment such as celebrating the European day of languages and celebrating French Fridays!
