Year - 5

Being a Year 5 at
KCD
In Year 5, we pass the second
gear and start learning more
specific language. Students
will be able to understand and
produce language which will
help them in a Frenchspeaking
country.
Year 5 Overview
Year 5 is highly targeting
communication. Topics we
learn include ordering in a
restaurant, a café or simply
an ice-cream on the beach
and ask for price. We also
ask for specific quantities
of fruits and vegetables at
the market. Students learn
to talk about their hobbies
and what they like/dislike
doing. Eventually we will
talk about holiday
including details.
Monitoring progress
All areas taught within the Department incorporate
Assessment for Learning techniques. Learning and teaching
is more focused as pupils are more involved with their
learning. Successes (even small ones!) are celebrated and
areas for improvement are identified, allowing pupils to find
out exactly what they need to do to make progress. Pupils
respond well to the strategies used and particularly enjoy
opportunities for working with peers.
It is vitally important that all strategies used are planned and
managed well to be fully effective. These strategies include:
Sharing learning intentions at the start of the lesson
Evaluating the success of the lesson
Questioning techniques
Class discussion
Self-assessment
Peer and Group assessment
Personal target setting
