MFL Vision 

At Silkmore we offer weekly MFL lessons from Year two upwards focussing on the teaching of Spanish, the sessions will inspire and excite our pupils using a wide variety of topics and themes. All pupils will be expected to achieve their full potential by encouraging high expectations and excellent standards in their foreign language learning - the ultimate aim being that pupils will feel willing and able to continue studying languages beyond key stage 2.

The four key language learning skills; listening, speaking, reading, and writing will be taught and all necessary grammar will be covered in an age-appropriate way across the primary phase. This will enable pupils to use and apply their learning in a variety of contexts, laying down solid foundations for future language learning and helping the children improve overall attainment in other subject areas.

How

  • Curriculum sequenced from Y1 to Y6 to build on prior learning.
  • Cognitive Science and space retrieval activities used to revisit and embed learning.
  • Vocabulary sequenced, modelled, and applied throughout the lessons.
  • Step by step lessons enabling children to build on skills.
  • Purposeful, hands-on, and engaging learning opportunities
  • Objectives across all strands revisited and embedded within and across year groups and key stages to ensure cumulative fluency
  • access to different programmes and technology to ensure curriculum coverage.
