Ours+brun,+dis-moi+...

During April and May of 2007, year 2 pupils were introduced to the highly popular Bill Martin text 'Ours brun, dis-moi...' as part of their French language lessons.

The story helped children to acquire new vocabulary for a range of animals, revise known colour words and learn that colour adjectives actually __//follow//__ the noun in French.

Each pupil had the opportunity to produce their own mini-version of the book using the same animal characters as the author but altering the colours in whatever way they wished. To facilitate their writing, children had access to a range of word and picture match-up cards, which you can download via the icons below.



This powerpoint presentation was read aloud to the children as an example of how they could alter their own stories...

Here are a few photographs to show how hard the pupils worked on this task.
