Year 6 are in their fourth year of learning Spanish! 

 

Autumn Term 2021

We are learning to talk about the weather and joining in with a fun Spanish weather song. We are creating simple weather forecasts for Spain.  

 

We are learning how to say what we like to do in different weather by including sports and hobby phrases learnt in year 5. We can say sentences such as "When it's cold, I like to watch TV."

 

Watch the video to see some forecasts.

We are learning lots of clothes nouns and can join in with a song about clothes. We can describe the colour of an item of clothing and can state what we like to wear in different weather. 

 

We began preparation for making concertina characters wearing what we described in Spanish.

 

Here are some examples of work from the 2020-21 academic year:

Summer 2021

 

We are reading 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.

Spring Term 2020

 

We are listening to a song telling a traditional fairy story in Spanish. We are improving listening and reading skills by identifying key vocabulary, editing the song into a story and telling the story of the Sleeping Beauty in Spanish. 

 

Here are children from year 6 2020 reading the story. Choose a video to watch:

We are working on improving our dictionary skills by replacing the main characters and some other key nouns and adjectives to create and read our own version of a (crazy) fairy story. We will use pictures to act the story for other children to enjoy.

Before the Easter break, we are looking at a traditional Spanish Easter cake recipe in Spanish. We found out the ingredients and looked for Spanish instruction verbs in the dictionary. The recipe is in the powerpoint below. Watch the video of how to make these delicious buns on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-SlE7uIYftQ 

Summer Term 2019

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:
