Today in Spanish, we learned las vocales 🇪🇸 — the five Spanish vowel sounds. Learning these is important because Spanish vowels are not pronounced the same way as those in English. This will help us to read and pronounce new words more accurately. ¡Muy bien! 👏 @falkirk1plus2.bsky.social
We explored cognates & false friends.Cognates are words that sound similar & mean the same thing in different languages (e.g. elephant and elefante).False friends look and sound similar but have different meanings.The Spanish word ropa looks like rope, but means clothes! @falkirk1plus2.bsky.social
Our Spanish has come along brilliantly since August! 🇪🇸 @falkirk1plus2.bsky.social
Live lessons are now open for sign up in cpd manager . First programmes P2/3 French Ours brun and P4/5 French - Camille va au marché. Programmes also available in Spanish 🇪🇸 and German 🇩🇪

Spring is in the air, so why not add a bit of Lüften into your routine? The German habit of opening windows for 5-15min daily helps replace stale air, prevent mould, and boost wellbeing. It’s done year-round, without fail. Try it in your ‘spring clean’ routine! 💨
