Why sounds? • to improve listening skills which affects all areas of the curriculum • to aid pronunciation, which is not the same as accent • to help reinforce children’s knowledge of English phonemes/graphemes through comparing & contrasting • to link the sounds with the spellings which helps children learn to read in the target language
Won’t it confuse children? • No, it’s not the full ‘Letters & Sounds’ program • You might choose to focus on just one or two sounds per term or unit. • Use the opportunity to exploit the comparison with English
When you read you begin with... ...A - B - C *

http://phonetique.free.fr • Online support with French pronunciation • Goes right up to native speaker level and really tests your own listening skills
Distinguish between sounds Stick up to 4 pieces of paper with a different grapheme on in the corners of the room. When the teacher says a word in the target language, the children have to point to the right corner to show which sound they’ve heard. Extend this to reading out a poem containing words with these sounds. O 4.3 – Listen for sounds, rhyme & rhythm; identify specific sounds e.g. phonemes
eu sound ère sound *
eu/oeu ou au/eau/o
ui oi 8 ai
u ille i
Sound posters • Ask the children to choose a specific grapheme & make a poster to help people remember how it sounds • They can write down words which use that grapheme & highlight it, put pictures on, etc. L 4.2 – Make links between spoken & written words; Identify common spelling patterns in letter strings
Sounds of the Rainforest • Each pair has a set of cards with some French words broken into several parts. • The children discuss in groups how to say their collection of letters • Then they walk around the room repeating their sound until they find partners to make the complete word. L 4.3 – Read some familiar words & phrases aloud and pronounce them accurately; pronounce letter strings accurately. *
Predict the spelling Using Mini whiteboards • Tell the children that you’re going to say a word and they have to try & write it down correctly. They have to really listen to the whole word, not just for the grapheme (use short words!!).
