During INSET, teachers used QCA Key Stage Two schemes of work for German and Italian as a basis for their pupils’ study, sharing ideas for the addition of enjoyable activities and cultural enrichment.
We needed a Scheme of Work for a coherent, consistent teaching approach so that all pupils in Years 3 and 4 would enjoy
high quality language provision.

• Teachers and pupils produced displays, some of which they downloaded from the Internet.• They placed materials for language learning alongside their displays for other curriculum areas and talked about different languages.• Teachers and pupils used them regularly as an aide mémoire.

Teachers who had earlier lacked confidence gradually took over the delivery and practice of the language.

There was a perceptible increase in spontaneous use of language, like “ancora / nochmal”; “piùforte / lauter”; “bravo /gut”; spontaneous singing of birthday songs plus greeting and talking to teachers and peers in the target language.

Pupils saw patterns and applied linguistic knowledge to other situations such as pronunciation and capital letters for nouns in German. The pupils really developed a sense of confidence and felt successful in their language learning.
