Reviews
The songs and the French voices are delightful. The pupil’s sheets are clear and fun. The teacher’s notes contain some good ideas. This is a superb supplementary resource for any primary course, but could also be used by pupils in Key Stage 3. Bridge House Languages. To read the full review, click here.
I have been teaching French to primary age children for many years and can say that I am impressed with your two French books which I use a lot, especially the songs one. Collette Elliott, teacher.
I really love Chantez Plus Fort! Not since MGP’s Un Kilo de Chanson have MFL teachers been offered something specifically written for fun learning of the national curriculum guidelines at KS2 and KS3. The songs recycle and pull together early language work in a rhythmical and therefore memorable way. Sara Berry, Manchester. To read the full review, click here.
