Talkabout Primary MFL

A network for anyone teaching languages in Primary

Wikipedia has a comprehensive definition of Armistice day for your class to explore, should they wish today, remembering that we mourn ALL those killed. For the very young, or just a lighter touch, you might want to make use of this printout poppy from teteamodeler.com that you could scribble some numbers and a key on in the corner to make into a target-language colour-by-numbers activity. And for a subtle musical allusion to the significance of the date - why not listen to the 'Gentil Coquelicot' song (mp3 version) or print out the lyrics and notation and try it yourselves? Even Boowa and Kwala have a little poppy song. I don't think the Intercultural Understanding strand of the Framework alludes just to celebrations - do you?
