C'est le temps de la reprise et de la galette!
We have started the year learning about the French celebration of Epiphany. KS1 learnt a song, read some stories about La Galette des rois and found the surprise in this game.
From all the stories, our favourite was the one of Trotro. At the beginning of the book there are two pages dedicated to the ingredients of the cake and at the end the whole recipe in French. Also, the story tells the children how the queen or king is chosen and who decides to whom give each slide of the cake!
Year 3 watched "Petit Ours Brun et la galette des rois". They learnt some vocabulary around the tradition and created some beautiful crowns.
Year 5 did some dictionary work and learnt a comptine.
Y5 epiphanie from NoeliaRG
Year 6 designed and described their own crowns. They learnt the names of some shapes to put in their crowns and used their knowledge of adjectival agreement to write their descriptions.
We hope that you have learnt how the tradition is celebrated! Here there are some activities for you to try:
