First (couple of) lesson(s) on talking about your town (Y7) . Covers: Type of town Places in town There is/n’t any… + There is neither… nor… Things you can do in your town Whether you like you town because of what there is and what you can do Include translation text and writing task. Based on Mira 1 but mostly my own thing. Handout is the first and second (hidden) slides

Here is a complete set of French display resources that I have either created or collected then adapted covering mostly grammar and literacy (some not shown on picture as they are in different parts of my classroom). It took me a few days to put together so I hope it saves you time and is useful to your students. The tenses on the time line are colour coded with the tenses explanation (past tenses in blue, present in red and future tenses in green). Everything is either powerpoint or word documents so you can edit them to suit your needs best.

Simple display with the acronym PALMS and 2 different layout to help remind students of what to include when describing a photo

Powerpoint teaching students to understand and build up a conversation at the doctor. Starter: X/O on pains and ailments. Main: Using a conversation as an example, focus on the different parts adding vocab/grammar (pouvoir, depuis, passé compose, il faut). Parts of the conversation then disappear to give place to generic instructions for students to adapt for their own role play (I use finger/hand puppets). I don't make students write anything, just give them a copy of the important slides on one handout so they spend less time copying and more time using/manipulating the language

I have tried numerous ways of explaining the past tense and there are some great resources on the TES for tutorials and activities. However I could not find an easy to follow handout covering everything there is to know about the passé composé, that was straight forward and fitted on 2 pages (either for double sided copies or 2 A5 on an A4 landscape way). Anyway, I ended up making my own and I hope you find it useful too ☺ I usually do whole class examples and later use mini whiteboards for individual practice.

I had to design an activity/revision booklet for a student who was excluded internally for quite a long time. However, I also use it as a workbook in my lessons, as homework or as catch-up if anyone was absent. It covers pretty much every sub-topics of ‘School and Future Plans’. It is very mixed ability as I have only one group of students with predicted grades ranging from 2 to 8 in a school where languages are compulsory so it will be up to you to fit in extra practice from textbooks or tailor your feedback to stretch the more able in the mini tasks. This should take 5-6 hours to complete. Please let me know what you think.

Several lessons worth. Powerpoint with a topic that would combine a lot of what students would have covered with Theme 1 of GCSE French (AQA) such as reflexives, pouvoir/devoir, imperfect, time. Focused on daily routine, comparing them on a school day, weekend and lockdown. Hidden slides at the beginning are for handouts to be printed if necessary. Notes provided at the bottom of slides explaining the activities. Please rate/leave a comment if you like it; thank you!

KS3 presentation aimed at Y8 students to describe and explain whether they think they have an active lifestyle. The presentation uses basic activities with je joue/je fais then helps the students improve their writing by adding frequencies, negative structures (ne…pas/jamais) and opinion infinitive phrases. Finally we look at 2 sample answers (active and not active lifestyles) where a typical basic answer has been improved. We discuss these improvements (underlined in texts) and students can then write their own answers. First slide is hidden and would be printed as a handout.

A whole lesson (or 2) literally drilling the differences in patterns for key hobbies verbs ans some irregular verbs in the infinitive, present, perfect and near future. A lot of repetition involved at the beginning which can seem quite daunting/boring but I explain to my students that you don't remember something after having it seen/heard/said it just once and they get on board with the experiment. Instructions for each activity are in the notes section on the slides. The word document has to be printed on coloured paper/card (purple for infinitive, red/pink for present, blue for perfect and green for near future). They then need to be sliced and each student should have one of each tense/colour that they can then put up/show in relevant activity/ies.
