@KilsythAcademy Our fantastic Community Involvement senior pupils made our new celebrating success board this week. First value focus: RESPECT. Are you ready to be your class’ first Language Legend by showing this school value in every class?
Yesterday @Chapelgreen_PS and @kilsythprimary1 had their P7 transition visits, were competitive and showed a great attitude toward languages! All pupils were very keen to get involved in activities! As always, the new S1 is going to be amazing! @KilsythAcademy
It was very impressive seeing @Banton_Pr P7’s engaging so well during their Modern Languages transitions visit! Another great transition visit! Well done to all the pupils and we’ll see you in August! @KilsythAcademy
Today @MrBoydModLangs played @balmalloch P7 at Beat the Teacher today and P7 won! Mr Boyd was very impressed by P7’s enthusiasm, communication and teamwork and enjoyed introducing them to Spanish! See you all in August! 😁 @KilsythAcademy 🇫🇷 🇪🇸
We are excited to announce the arrival of 4 new courses on ACHIEVE:
- National 5 French
- National 5 Health and Food Technology
- Higher Graphic Communication
- Higher Photography
All 4 courses are free to use for teachers and students until 31 May.
When you can read your first sentence in Mandarin, write your first few words in Farsi, have your first conversation in French, understand the lyrics of a song in Spanish or make connections between German & English, you'll feel the thrill of discovering a world beyond your own.
To promote German language learning abroad, Germany is contemplating asking tourists to say a German word at border control.
The word is to be picked at random from a list prepared by linguistic specialists, including:
🗣️ Eichhörnchen
🗣️ Quietscheentchen
🗣️ Gewürzgurke
Two of our senior pupils, JQ and EB, have been visiting our cluster primary schools to deliver Spanish lessons! Lots of engaged learners and excellent leadership skills. Here the pupils are learning about countries. 🌎 Estamos muy orgullosos de vosotras👏 @KilsythAcademy
@ConduitScotEdu@gimkit@KilsythAcademy Just had about 20 of them singing along to “We don’t talk about Bruno”. I don’t blame them. It’s a proper earworm!
This week S1 ML has been consolidating the topic of Family by watching #Encanto and further practising with @gimkit. ¡Muy bien, chicos! @KilsythAcademy
@ConduitScotEdu@gimkit@KilsythAcademy When they’ve been doing Spanish for 4 weeks and they’re impressed that they understand the family members in Spanish and some other phrases here and there, absolutely 💯😁
A massive congratulations to all our N5 and H French and Spanish pupils completing their talking performances over the last week! Last day of assessments today - bon courage and ¡buena suerte! So proud of all of you 💪@KilsythAcademy
Mr Boyd will be doing N5 Supported Study on a Wednesday and Higher Supported Study on a Thursday immediately after school until Study Leave in Room 232. Go see Mr Boyd if you have questions!
