Radio Labo

It's tricky to find suitable and good-quality listening materials for Key Stage 2 French.  Radio Labo from BBC School Radio is a series of 10 fifteen-minute programmes. They are intended for upper Key Stage 2, but the earlier programmes would be just as useful for Years 3 and 4.

The programmes cover vocabulary, grammar and phonics, and each programme also has a song.  The language is presented but also practised via games.

There are some very comprehensive teacher's notes to go with each programme, and I think it would be wise to study these before listening to the programme with the children in order to gain the maximum benefit from the programme.

Have a listen and see what you think!
