During Autumn Term Yr 5 children had the opportunity to introduce themselves to children in our partner school in Spain, Santa Clara Primary School. It has been a wonderful way to help children to transfer skills between English and Spanish; thinking about spellings, using dictionaries and think about the importance of grammar and punctuation. Letters are not extinct!!!

Yr 5 have discovered Spanish comics; children can apply knowledge of word order and sentence construction to support understanding of written texts.

Through the year, we had different role-play activities; ‘Going shopping’ was fun, challenging and rewarding.  Children’s positive attitude is crucial for effective learning.
