At Hatton Hill, we use the Hola Espanol programme to deliver our learning in Spanish.
All units of work have been written to present ideas and activities which engage interest, promote confidence and encourage communication in Spanish.
They support a range of learning styles through sounds, videos, activities, games, images, songs, spoken text and, of course, written words and phrases.
The Hola Espanol programme provides translations for all key vocabulary – all Spanish words and phrases, and most images, within the colourful and eye catching scheme can be clicked to hear correct pronunciations.
Children need to constantly practise new vocabulary and the activities the children complete are designed so that children learn a set of new words in each lesson, building on previous learning.
Oral work is so important in the teaching of a foreign language, so the main focus in all lessons is on speaking and listening, particularly with a partner.
In Year 5, we develop our Spanish speaking, listening and writing within the following areas of learning:
Children will revisit the Year 3 and 4 areas of learning to consolidate knowledge, and to improve pronunciation and confidence, before progressing onto Year 5. See below our scheme of work for more details.
If you would like to further your child's Spanish at home, BBC Bitesize has excellent resources, some examples of which can be seen below: https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/subjects/z4crr2p
