Y5 French directions treasure hunt

Y5 have been learning how to describe their town, creating their own local maps and labelling them with the French names. We then moved on to learn directions so that we can make sure we can find our way in French speaking countries! To put our new language to the test, we did a French treasure hunt where we all had to read and translate the French directions to record the correct answer and  find the next clue until we managed to locate the hidden treasure... Super work practising French oral and reading skills.

ere a great audience too.
