Foreword

The following lesson plans and accompanying PowerPoint presentations have been written to follow on from the work covered in my Y3 and Y4 schemes of work. Due to time constraints I have not included as much detail on the basics of delivering a primary language lesson, as I believe these have been covered in the Y3 and 4 schemes of work and other supporting information which is available on the Dane Court Primary Languages Website.

I have included plans and PowerPointsfor 20 lessons mainly focussing on oracy, literacy, knowledge about language and language learning strategies as these appear to be the areas, most non specialist colleagues I have worked with have reported having the difficulty with. I have included some work on intercultural understanding, but would suggest that you cover the Year 5 objectives of this strand throughout the year slotting it in where you feel appropriate. This is likely to bring your lesson total up to about 30 lessons. Intercultural understanding lessons could involve;

  • Looking at celebrations throughout the year (Christmas etc)
  • Looking at food and flags of francophone countries
  • Looking at recipes from francophone countries
  • Looking at menus
  • Traditional songs/instruments
  • Comparing and contrasting towns
  • Finding out about currencies

I would also like to take this opportunity, to thank all the Primary Language Co-ordinators and class teachers I have worked with who supported me in producing this work.

Resources: PowerPoint– Lesson 1-6
Suggested Teaching Sequence:
Lesson 1.
  • Share learning objective with class
  • Starter 1
  • Show class question “Qu’est-cequ’il y a danstaville?” Elicit English, if class find it difficult you could give them a/b/c option e.g. Does it mean a) Where do you live? b) What is in your town? or c)I like chocolate.
  • Practise question with class
  • Show class answer “Dans ma villeil y a ... “
  • Elicit English – class will have seen “dans”, “il y a” before and will have just seen “ma ville” in the question.
  • Practise answer with class
  • Present one by one the places in the town and repeat them with mimes e.g. remember mime for un – squashing hands together because it is a short sound and une – pulling hands apart because it is a long sound. Mimes for the places could include pushing a trolley for a supermarket, reading a book for a library, sun bathing for a beach etc
  • Carry on repeating these enough times so that you are sure that class have got the pronunciation and are confident saying them.
  • Select a game (see section on practice activities for ideas) to allow class to practise this vocabulary in pairs or small groups while you monitor them individually and correct any errors in pronunciation.
  • Plenary check back with class to lesson objectives and get feedback from them as to what they believe they have learnt.
  • Play morpion (Os and Xs)
Lesson 2-3
  • Share lesson objectives with class
  • Starter 2
  • Show pupils next slide with question “Parle-moi de taville” – elicit English and practice sentence.
  • Draw pupil’s attention to “Voici ... “ and elicit English. You could help pupils to work out meaning by going around the class pointing to pupils and saying “Voici ...”
  • Practise saying “Voici” with places in the town.
  • Present slide asking pupils if they like/dislike their town/village. Briefly practise and repeat this as this is vocabulary they should be familiar with.
  • Explain to class that they are going to design a simple map of a town imaginary or real and draw buildings/places on it and label in French and express their opinion if they like it or not.
  • Pupils will need to carry on this work into lesson 3.
  • Pleanary pupils can take it in turns to present it to their partner/table or class.
Lesson 4
  • Share lesson objectives with class
  • Starter 3
  • Present and repeat “pres de”, “loin de” etc with class with mimes.
  • Show class slides with sentences using “pres de” etc and places in the town. Repeat with class
  • Ask class to complete vrai/faux (true/false) slide
  • Teacher reads out sentence to describe pictures on next slide and class have to say which number it is.
  • Class write their own sentences to describe which places are near or far from their house/flat. Teacher models sentences with pupils first and leaves these on the board as visual support. Also last slide on presentation can be used as visual support.
Lesson 5-6
Intercultural Understanding Lesson(s)

Lesson 7
  • Share learning intention with class
  • Starter
  • Show class slide with the question “Comment voyages-tu?” and ask class to speculate on meaning. Ask them what helped them to work out what it meant. If they are having difficulty, highlight the word “voyage” and ask them if there is another way we can say this in English.
  • Drill question with class, with mimes and when you are confident that they are able to say it well move on to next slide
  • Present and repeat all the different forms of transport in a sentence e.g. “Je voyage en avion”. Elicit from class why they think some take “en” and some take “à”. You can remind them in English that we say “on foot”. To help them remember if it is “en” or “à” you can tell them that if you physically get into the form of transport it is “en” otherwise it is “à”.
  • When the class are confident with the pronunciation of this vocabulary select a practise activity to allow them to practise while you monitor.
  • Plenary – en/à activity and Morpion (Os and Xs)
