ABSTRACT
In the National Curriculum orders for MFL, one of the five aspects of knowledge, skills and understanding to be covered at Key Stages 3 and 4 is cultural awareness. These are the key aspects within this section:
Pupils should be taught about different countries and cultures by:
working with authentic materials in the target language, including some from ICT-based sources;
communicating with native speakers;
considering their own culture and comparing it with the cultures of the countries and communities where the target language is spoken;
considering the experiences and perspectives of people in these countries and communities.
