    Today, we are going to start our French unit, 'Cher Zoo', which focusses on learning the names of zoo animals, some of the adjectives to describe zoo animals and the use of past tense to recount a zoo visit. 
    • Firstly, remind yourself of the popular children's book 'Dear Zoo' (in English).
    • Next, listen to the same book but this time in French - Cher Zoo. Try to join in with some of the repeated phrases: 
      =  I received

    =  I sent it back


    Might be useful:

    As always, if you would prefer to exercise by going for a walk and enjoying some of this lovely spring weather that's brilliant. 👍

    If, however, you would like to practise 'linking jumps and throwing with a pulling action' then take a look at this lesson from Oak Academy.
