5Red’s European Day of Languages

5red have had a great day today learning about Germany and the language of German. We found it tricky but really got the hang of it quickly. Look at our video of our conversations.

Next, we investigated where Germany was in the world and in Europe. It was great to use our atlas’. We created some fact files about Germany too.

Finally, we made Lebkuchen (Oktoberfest cookies)
