Why? • 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 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

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!!).
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.
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.
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.
