  • use language skills, receptively and productively, for communication in the real world, for practical purposes, for their immediate needs, interests and beyond to express and justify opinions;
  • develop their confidence, curiosity and autonomy to access new and unfamiliar language;
  • work towards becoming a fluent and spontaneous speaker of the foreign language.
