Lunchtime
and After School French Clubs
As
part of our service we offer lunchtime and after school French
clubs to all students from year three to year six. Many of these
children have been on holiday in France and are interested in
knowing how to express themselves in French, if only to buy
and ice cream or sweets. When I actually put into context the
phrases that they have been learning such as making friends
abroad, expressing likes and dislikes, they become even more
receptive.
French
Club
Lunchtime
and After School clubs not only serve as a good social source
for your child but also gives them either a fun introduction
to the French language or a reinforcement to any knowledge that
they may already have (through term time lesson, for example).
These
clubs are run in term time only and last half and hour. As with
my classes in Nursery and Primary schools I teach through play
- such as drawing, colouring etc. (see
nursery page for a breakdown of my teaching methods).
At
the beginning of each term your child will be given the Lesson
Plan, the Learning Objective for each lesson, any new words
introduced and what each lesson consists of.
Additional
Benefits
- Your
child will get their accent from me and therefore will be speaking
French like a French child
- The best way to learn is through personal experience and practise.
Please talk to them if you know any French or encourage them
to tell you what they have done.
- Half an hour French a week is very little when everything
else around them is English, so it is really useful if you can
talk about the new words introduced. You will be surprised how
quickly they learn from you. You are their most treasured teacher
-
The teaching of a foreign language is important in early year
settings. It enhances all aspects of a child's development and
should be promoted and encouraged.
