Year 6 are in their fourth year of learning Spanish here at Bassett Green Primary School!

2026-27: Kapow learning

This year is the first year of the fantastic new programme - Kapow! Children are learning how to name clothes in Spanish, and looking at school life, including naming subjects and giving opinions. In the spring term, children will give instructions for completing household tasks and consider a typical Spanish market. Finally, in the summer term, children will talk about hobbies at different times of the year and go on an ancient Maya city treasure hunt - how exciting!

Celebrating Success

We wrote descriptions of Spanish cities and created a triarama showing the description and the places in the city. Here are the pupils' triaramas from 2026. Well done Year 6!

We listened to a song telling a traditional fairy story in Spanish - The Sleeping Beauty, which taught us how to count in 10s to 100. Listen to it here:

Here are children from year 6 reading the story. Choose a video to watch:

Clothes - La ropa

We learned lots of clothes nouns and joined in with a song about clothes. We described the colour of an item of clothing. We made concertina characters wearing what we described in Spanish:

We read a formal letter from footballer Fernando Torres introducing himself, including all the language we have been learning since year 3. We are using the letter to help us create a letter from footballer Ferran Torres, before writing a letter of introduction from ourselves to our secondary school Spanish teacher.

Asking and answering questions

We are preparing and practising interviews, which include all the questions and answers we have learnt since year 3. Lots of us are choosing to disguise ourselves with hats, scarves, masks and other costumes. 

Here is our video from summer 2019:
