SPRING TERM <strong>2022</strong><br />
Spanish<br />
In Spanish, we have been learning<br />
conversational skills including how to talk<br />
about what we do in school and our free time.<br />
We have also learnt about different sports,<br />
hobbies and lessons. We have also been<br />
writing paragraphs about the subjects we do<br />
throughout the day and whether we like them<br />
and why. We have written about the members<br />
of our family and what they do. We have<br />
written about clubs and sports that we take<br />
part in as Co-Curricular activities, when we do<br />
them and what we enjoy about them. We have<br />
really enjoyed this and have learnt a lot.<br />

Mandarin<br />
Mandarin lessons over the past term have been<br />
very fun and intriguing. Although quite a difficult<br />
language, we improved rapidly over the course of<br />
the term. We learnt things from basic numbers<br />
all the way to being able to introduce ourselves<br />
and our family both out loud and on paper. By<br />
far the most interesting thing we did in Mandarin<br />
was our calligraphy – we did this in the first week<br />
of February. Due to the fact it was Chinese New<br />
Year, the year of the tiger, we learnt calligraphy,<br />
writing either ‘tiger’ or ‘luck’ in Mandarin.<br />
Mandarin has been a great experience and I<br />
would like to thank Shen Lao Shi for teaching us.<br />
