Spanish
Spanish Club commencing Monday 18th March
Bienvenido (welcome) to our Spanish page!
Following our success over the last few years, Spanish continues to be our chosen modern foreign language in Key Stage 2.
We, as a school, are extremely passionate about the Spanish language and culture as many of our members of staff have spent time, lived or taught in Spain!
To engage our pupils, we have implemented a variety of strategies from songs and interactive computer games to listening and reading activities across KS2. From Year 3 to Year 6, children are exposed to the Spanish language and culture by developing their speaking and listening skills (in lower KS2) and their reading and writing skills (in upper KS2).
As a whole school, we recognise how important it is for pupils to learn about the world around us. Consequently, we recently installed a 'Fly with Fulfen' interactive world map in our school hall. As well as this being a resource for children to test their Spanish knowledge, it is also supporting the children in their Geography lessons.
2018 was a fantastic year for this area of the curriculum... Fulfen held its first ever residential trip to Madrid! This opportunity really brought the Spanish curriculum to life and enabled children to experience the culture first hand.
We are so happy to be able to offer a new and improved Madrid trip in May 2019! During this trip we will be exploring Retiro Park and Santiago Bernabeu Stadium as well as a sightseeing tour, watching a Flamenco Show and ordering Spanish food (in Spanish) at local tapas restaurants. We will keep you updated with letters and powerpoints on this page so please keep coming back for more information!
On this page you will also find helpful links to websites and videos that support our Spanish curriculum.
Adios amigos!
