This week we are moving on to FARM ANIMALS. Can I name some farm animals in French?
Here’s a song to sing along to start: On the Farm
Here is a video with farm animal words. Repeat the words with the speaker.
Attached is a sheet with 7 farm animals. Print out the sheet (or do 7 drawings). Hide the pictures round the room. When your child finds one, s/he should give the word in French. Then it’s their turn to hide them!
Here is a song to finish – Old MacDonald had a farm in French. It’s a bit fast so may be better played on 0.75 speed. See if you can pick up the sounds the animals make in French. They’re not all the same! The word used for sheep is une brebis (oon brubee) – a ewe.
Merci beaucoup. A bientot!
Music
Last week we really enjoyed exploring pulse and creating our own rhythm patterns. Today we are looking at creating movements to physicalise pulse. Watch the video below and join in with Miss Glover at the Oak Academy.
