More Story-Telling Resources for Primary MFL

These site were recommended by Jo Rhys-Jones, creator of the Ning Network Talkabout Primary MFL . This is a lovely community keen to exchange ideas of good practice about teaching MFL in the primary school.
For those of you who are new to Ning networks check http://primarymfl.ning.com/ to register/ see how it all works. It is very user-friendly.
  • Fairy tales by Hans Christian Andersen and The Grimm brothers:

    These are animated fairy tales online in French, Spanish, Italian and Russian. They include information about the author, audio, games and colouring pages with the main characters from the fairy tales:

  • The Symphony of Friendship:

    This is presented as a Christmas present to all the children in the world. It is an illustrated story about how two enemies become friends through music. The story can be read in English, Japanese, German, Chinese, Spanish, Portuguese, French, Korean, Russian or Italian. Please note that some of these sections are still under construction and the foreign characters do not necessarily all display properly-certainly the case for French and Spanish. Although it would require adapting, this could be used as a stimulus for a lovely Christmas project http://www.mandala.co.jp/B9/indexe.htm
