Cover lesson worksheet for a low ability Year 8 class. A series of tasks to work through to build up from learning the vocab to using it in a sentence. Not very exciting, but thought it might save someone a bit of time.

Reading task based on Expo 2 Vert p62 but extended (I have added an extra text and broken down the activities more). This is for a low ability group so begins with the basics - recognising food words they have done and underlining them. Then they have to identify which person mentions which foods, and there are some extension questions for the more able in the group to move onto.

Vocabulary lists produced for most modules of Y7, 8 and 9 French, roughly following the Expo textbook. Year 7: 1) Basic introductions, numbers, colours 2) Family and pets 3) House and home 4) School and daily routine Year 8: 1) Revision module (talking about family, where you live) + jobs and weather 2) Temps libre - introducing past tense 3) Les sorties - modal verbs, clothes 4) Manger et boire 5) Les vacances Year 9: 1) Future plans (Module 2 of Expo 3) 2) Interests/leisure/culture (Module 1 of Expo 3) 3) Healthy living

Knowledge Organisers for my Y9 curriculum, including: Revision and enhancement of Y7 basics (self, appearance, personality, family) in the guise of a Loft Story (Big Brother) themed project. Media, TV, film, leisure activities. Healthy Living Customs and Festivals Education and Future Career Plans The KOs are divided into Productive Language (what we teach students to say and write) and Receptive Language (mostly taken from the AQA specification list) which they need to understand for Reading and Listening but don’t necessarily need to use in their own work. The KOs can be used to structure lesson planning, as a sentence builder or scaffold for students during written/spoken tasks, and for setting homework (typically half a column per week for vocab tests). I hope you find these useful. Check out my other resources if you did. :)

A simple reading task to introduce the perfect tense with Year 8. Pupils use their existing knowledge of verbs in the present tense/infinitive to identify the meaning of past tense verbs in the text, leading to a discussion of how the perfect tense is formed. Aimed at Y8 pupils, alongside Expo 2, Module 2 but could easily be used with weak Y9s too.

Pupils match job titles to descriptions. Extension activities included.

For a very low ability FCSE French group, but would be suitable for lower year groups. Would be good for cover. Match up key vocab. Simple reading task (checking understanding of il y a and il n'y a pas de). Matching places to activities with 'on peut'. Font size is massive so you can print 2 sheets per page.

Worksheet designed for low ability Y8 groups to get on with independently during speaking assessment. Designed for a group who struggled to complete Linguascope sheets and Gianfranco Conti sheets in a cover lesson so needed something simpler.

A cover lesson introducing language for the photo card at AQA GCSE (for the 4-sentences writing task, and as a starting point for the speaking exam). This is for a low ability Y9 group. Covers: -hay + nouns -es + height/build -tiene + hair description -lleva + basic clothing 4 pictures for students to describe.

For Year 8 low ability group on pancake day. Links in with current module (just starting food and drink - Expo 2, Module 4) but includes some cultural aspects on la Chandeleur and Mardi gras. Main idea for resource (pictures and vocab) taken from another TES resource (http://www.tes.co.uk/teaching-resource/Les-cr-and-234-pes-6071144/) but I have added to it to keep my class busy for a whole lesson.

Differentiated reading tasks for a very mixed ability top/middle set Y10 French group. B/C text focuses on recognition and usage of key verbs in the perfect and imperfect tense. A* version assumes pupils are already confident with the 2 tenses and introduces a range of advanced structures which they can use to develop their work.

Used with an Asset Spanish class, so is fairly basic. Would probably be OK for KS3 or a Foundation GCSE group. Read descriptions of people's jobs/where they work, and match with job titles previously learned.

Reading text suitable for Y9 or KS4. Description of primary school (c’était, il y avait) and ideal school (ce serait, il y aurait) plus other verbs in the imperfect and conditional tenses. Could lead to practice of these structures and students producing their own written work.

2 lessons aimed at top-set Y9 pupils, linked to Module 1 of Expo 3 Rouge. Lesson 1: -Intro to film genres - think of an example for each genre listed. -Reading task - guess the film from the description (answers: The Hunger Games, Harry Potter, Frozen, The Fault in Our Stars) -Find the French (for key phrases to use in writing) -Writing task with sentence starters provided. Lesson 2: -What do you care about when choosing a film? - ranking priorities and writing about them -Opinions of different aspects of the film - review.

2 lessons for a top set Y8 class doing Spanish once per week alongside French. Using mas...que, menos... que and tan... como. Some slides found on TES and adapted/added to my own resources, so not entirely my own.

Printable knowledge organisers for KS3 French. Can be used as a basis for SoW (ie: what content to cover), as a scaffold in lessons, and for independent learning (self-quizzing for homework). Productive KOs include verb phrases and key vocabulary that has been selected because it is transferable or is easy to say/spell in test conditions. Receptive KOs are at word level and contain key language taken from the AQA specification, aimed at exposing pupils to a wider range of this from KS3. Topics covered (so far) are: Food and drink Leisure/free time activities Pocket money, chores, jobs Going out in town Holidays There are also KOs on key verbs in 3 tenses, and on quality language/opinions to be used across all topics. Word loops are included for class retrieval practice of Food and Drink topic. Pupils aim to recall the translation of a word before the answers appear on the screen.
