Learning objective
- To plan and prepare a short presentation about my family.
National curriculum
Languages
Pupils should be taught to:
- Describe people orally and in writing.
- Express ideas clearly.
Differentiation
Pupils needing extra support: limit the children to building blue and green rainbow sentences, first by building the jumbled sentence then changing name and age words.
Pupils working at greater depth: create extended sentences using et (and) / mais (but), such as ‘elle adore les bonbons mais elle n’aime pas les chocolats’ – she loves sweets but doesn’t like chocolate. Challenge them to try and incorporate any other information from the units covered so far.
During the week
- Display the rainbows on the wall and invite the children to come up with alternative word cards for each colour sentence. These could become a sentence builder on the wall.
- Use the words or sentences from a rainbow paragraph as an outdoor orienteering- style activity by writing a letter on the back of each word card, which they need to put in the right order to spell out a secret message.
- Create vlogs/animations to present their own or fictional family. This could be shared with a partner school overseas.
