Filmed on location in Cosoleacaque in southern Veracruz State, Mexico, the programme features native Spanish-speaking children presenting and engaging in a range of different activities in and out of school. These include singing a traditional song (the words are provided on screen, karaoke-style!), narrating a journey to school, talking about the four seasons, and a demonstration of how to make a piñata. The short clips support the Key Stage 2 framework for languages and present scenarios to prompt discussion and activities in class, and correspond with the language objectives of Units 14, 15 and 17 of the QCDA schemes of work.
