East is launching a National Primary Bee competition for
years 5 and 6 in French, German and Spanish in January 2020.
The Primary Bee is for students in Years 5 & 6 who have started learning a foreign language ab initio in KS2 to practise and improve their vocabulary, pronunciation and memory skills in the target language(French, Spanish and German.
Words and phrases have been selected according to the work of NCELP (National Centre for Excellence in Language Pedagogy) which highlights the importance of word frequency in informing vocabulary learning, particularly during the early stages of language development. The list includes many high-frequency words (e.g., some numbers, some colours, some verbs, days of the week, question words and a number of common verbs to help early learners to acquire a robust knowledge of verb vocabulary. For the competition, students will be given the word or phrase in English and they will have to translate it correctly into the
Target Language ensuring accurate pronunciation and intonation. When participating, students will be given one minute to correctly translate as many words/phrases as possible.
We are delighted to enjoy the generous sponsorship of Vocab Express, who are offering competing schools free access to their online vocabulary learning platform for the duration of the Primary Bee, for the words included in the competition. The national winner’s school in each language will also be awarded a free subscription to Vocab Express for 2020/21.
The cost will be £25 for state schools and £50 for non-state schools.
