Resources:
IWB or screen with sound enabled if you wish to watch the hallowe'en themed skeleton song. Templates of the wanted posters below to share (or display electronically on board) for those who need them and copies of the writing frame support sheet if required/ //**Teachers note:** There is a template for those who need more support. Look out for those children who may be trying to add adjectives and check that the adjectives agree with the nouns. eg un oeuil bleu (a blue eye); les yeux bleu**S** (blue eyes); une bouche bleu**e** (a blue mouth - unllkely but gives the example of adding an **e** to an adjective in the feminine) and les bouches bleu**es** (blue mouths - feminine plural)// || * Easy build up ppt of whole lesson
 * ~  ||~ Description ||~ Resources ||
 * ~ Starter || * Sing the alphabet song from week 1 as a warm up and/or play a quick game of brain gym to revise colours.
 * Use the attached powerpoint to sing the words we will be using today to the tune of Kylie Minogue's 'Can't get you outta my head' while simultaneously doing the makaton actions. Very silly but uses both kinaesthetic gesture and music as language learning strategy. || * Link to download both ppt and
 * embedded music click here ||
 * ~ Main Activity || * **Give the children a picture of a Highwayman (or a pirate)** (this theme was chosen as it links to what the children were already doing in English planning this term). Click here for wikipedia link to French-born Highwayman Claude Duval.
 * **Explain that the task is to design a WANTED poster (in French)** for a Highwayman or someone similar e.g. a pirate. See examples and templates. There is also a writing frame for children to use as reference.
 * **Some children could complete a poster for a female**, therefore remind them they will need to use //elle// not //il//.
 * **Remind children of the word order and adjectival agreement in sentences in French** (see teachers notes below) – does the structure and order follow how we would write it exactly in English? (Links to L6.4)
