Spanish
The intent of our Spanish curriculum is to introduce pupils to the Spanish language. We aim to provide a solid foundation in listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills, enabling children to communicate effectively and confidently in Spanish.
Our curriculum is designed to engage pupils through interactive and immersive learning experiences. By exploring themes such as family, school, food, and leisure, children will build essential vocabulary and language structures. We emphasise practical language use and real-life contexts to make learning relevant and enjoyable.
We are committed to creating a supportive and dynamic learning environment where children feel encouraged to use Spanish in meaningful ways. Through activities such as songs, games, stories, and role-plays, pupils will develop their language skills while also building cultural empathy and appreciation for diversity. Our goal is to lay the groundwork for further language learning and to inspire a curiosity about other languages and cultures.
Key Aims:
- Develop foundational skills in listening, speaking, reading, and writing in Spanish.
- Engage pupils through interactive and practical language learning activities.
- Foster an appreciation for Spanish-speaking cultures and traditions.
- Encourage confident and meaningful use of Spanish in various contexts.
- Inspire a lifelong interest in languages and cultural diversity.
