Language of the month

I found this idea from a Primary schools website.

They chose to do this as a whole school initiative, but we do it for year 2. 

This is the Japanese display:

And the Spanish display:

The idea is that we cover a different language every month; try new food, learn about other countries' customs and traditions and possibly get guest speakers in.

The children love this lesson and so do I; it gives me the scope to be completely creative with my planning and link in other skills that the children need to learn.

In addition to this both classes have pen pals. I have set up a link with a Polish school, more to come about this subject so watch this space!
