These worksheets contain various activities (short writing task to start with, followed by a reading task and finishing with a longer reading task paired with by a true or false task). These worksheets aim at motivating lower ability that are interested in football. There is also a powerpoint to teach months of the year (with French celebrations) and numbers up to 31 to teach how to say when our birthday is. I have put the pictures from the worksheet in order to do one as a model with them and to correct them after.

Here is an assessment I have created to assess my primary children on their first unit of French. The powerpoint matches the assessment worksheets. It includes some writing tasks (1 short task: writing your name and age, 2nd task: writing name, age and how you feel using clues with support, 3rd task writing name, age and feelings without support), a listening task (using alphabet to spell name), another listening task on name, age and feelings.

Here is an assessment (worksheets and presentation) I made to assess my primary age children on pets and colour.

Here is a powerpoint presentation on places in town. It aims at teaching primary age children teaching or a lower ability class. I used the town of Redcar in the North East. The powerpoint has two workksheets (differentiated) to work on reading and writing skills. They are very easy tasks (circle the correct answers) and complete with missing vowels, replacing pictures by words. There is a comprehension task for the more able pupils. I have created a four in row speaking task to play in pairs or as a group (one with support il y a…and one with there is, there is no, there are…to translate).

Here is a very lengthy powerpoint presentation that can be used over two or three lessons. It gives the pupils plenty of opportunities (orally or in writing) to use the correct ending for each pronoun.

Here is a powerpoint presentation aiming at teaching pupils how to say what they have or what there is in their school bag or pencil case using there is/are as well as ‘j’ai’, ‘je n’ai pas’ or il n’y a pas.

Two differentiated booklets on French food and drinks. There is plenty of visual and written support for lower ability children and more challenging tasks for higher ability pupils. The booklet starts with two easy tasks of labelling the pictures and a wordsearch then gradually becomes more challenging as the children get to extend their writing skills. There is also an opportunity for the children to revise numbers and use them with food or drinks. I have also added differentiated reading tasks (for instance correct the wrong statements, read the paragraphs and answer the questions, a code to crack and a task on breakfast in different countries)

Here are two comprehension tasks I have created on la Nouvelle Vague. The reading comprehension goes with an article published on Lumni Enseignement. The listening task goes with a video which shows Truffaut explaining la Nouvelle Vague to the famous journalist Anne Sinclair.
