Some great work from @BirchwoodCE this afternoon. Children in year 5 thought of some excellent learning links to help remember the meaning of 'grande' and others challenged themselves to add extra language to their work! So impressed 👏👏🇪🇸! @network_primary @JanetLloydnet

Fascinating facts in French about planets from y5 ⁦@network_primary⁩ language learners. Each planets’ presentation we receive from children in different schools is so different m. Amazing to see what they have focused on in their structured rainbow sentence writing🤔
