Display / Printable Reference Sheet - French Classroom Language

(0)
Fantastic double-sided table of French classroom language. Huge time-saver and incredibly useful to encourage use of the target-language in lessons. Really helpful to introduce at the start of the year (or at any stage as a 'I think you're ready for this now...'). Can be printed as a big display poster, as A4 or A5 sheets and laminated as a reference point for students on classroom tables, or as an individual sheet to refer to. As well as classroom language, sheet also includes Days of the Week, Months of the Year, Numbers (overview of 1 - 1,000,000), Articles and Useful words (who, what, where, why etc. and connectives). Huge time saver! Useful with any age.
Grammar - Tenses - Near (immediate) future

Grammar - Tenses - Near (immediate) future

(0)
Excellent resource, introducing the near future tense through the 'aller' song, with a clear table to demonstrate formation. Text message conversation between Simon and Carly of The Inbetweeners engages students and asks them to answer a series of questions designed to test their understanding of the tense. HA stretched through identification and translations of colloquialisms such as 'ma biche'. Mini-whiteboard translation activity follows to gauge understanding, and a plenary with 12 sentences to translate is the last slide. This can be printed, cut up, and used in a box as a 'Pass-the-Parcel' style game, learners could throw die to determine the phrase that they translate to their partner, or in any number of different ways. LA supported through use of lesson worksheet (print table on first slide for learners to complete), HA through extension with colloquialisms and perfect tense. Excellent for introduction at KS3 and for revision / review at KS4.

Starter - 'Brain Trainer' Number Challenge

Starter - 'Brain Trainer' Number Challenge

(0)
Differentiated number-challenge starter (one slide), presenting learners with three levels of puzzle increasing in difficulty. Students are given a number at the start of each puzzle and asked to work out a series of sums (all in French) to end up with the final answer. Puzzles very similar to daily 'Brain Trainer' challenge in The Times. All animations and answers on slide. Puzzles use double and triple-figure numbers, therefore most suitable for HA KS3 / KS4. Excellent numeracy and cross-curricular links between MFL and maths. A great time saver, took an hour make and format! Can be adapted and used over and over again with different ages. 'Challenge' option asks students to research the difference between 'chiffre', 'nombre' and 'numéro'.

Le Tour de France - Differentiated Reading Comprehension - KS3 + KS4

Excellent cultural resource, working on Le Tour de France. Text outlines the competition, the history of the competition and the course that the cyclists follow. Support LA learners with vocabulary sheet if required and stretch HA learners with a ‘Challenge’ extension activity - a mini research project into the significance of the different jerseys.

A brilliant lesson that can branch off in to many different areas (researching winners, the different regions that the course crosses, anti-doping etc.) depending on level of group.

French number line, 1-100

(0)
Numbers 1-100 in number line form with French words for each number written out. Excellent support resource. A huge time saver! Subtle hints, such as 's' underlined in 'quatre-vingts' and 'quatre-vingt-un' underlined to remind students that 'et' is not required.

Daily routine bundle - Infinitives and Reflexive verbs

(0)
Excellent double-resource set, linking to daily routine and reflexive verbs. Suitable for KS2/KS3/KS4. Great as starters / warm-ups / white-board activities in class. All animations and answers included. The first resource asks students to un-scramble the reflexive infinitives. It is differentiated through giving more support to learners who require it by underlining the first letter of the verb. HA challenged through working out secret message of numbered boxes to form phrase 'Je me réveille' when all answers have been de-coded. The second resource is a pre-prepared time-saving table, with key verbs for daily routine and reflexive verbs, asking students to translate infinitives. Both very useful for HA KS2, KS3 and KS4, either as starters or class activities.
