These resources are designed for pupils who have a basic knowledge of German and are aimed at recapping key vocabulary. I have used them for new classes or returning after holiday time. The starter activity is a shape puzzle for pupils to match up key language. Within the teacher presentation pupils revise providing personal information (name, age, where they live, brothers and sister, favourite actor/actress, favourite film). There are opportunities to practice speaking and writing with lots of support provided. The Excel sheet contains follow me cards and a written summary consolidating the key questions that have been practiced. Please be aware that each activity is on a separate sheet of the spreadsheet.
The speaking and writing templates are easy to edit for future use with other topics.
There are two versions of this fantastic resource. A board game ready to be printed and an interactive PPT that can be played in class. Both versions contain the same 60 questions. All questions revise the content of Expo 3 vert but would be transferable to a 3rd Year French course. The animation added to the interactive questions means the questions can be tackled in a random order or if you prefer you can follow the numbers and the same order as the text book.
It is important that students are regularly revising and consolidating content. This is the perfect tool! With the upcoming changes to GCSE it is important that speaking is practiced regularly. Pupil and teacher friendly.
I hope you and your classes enjoy this resource as much as my students have!
This would be a great tool for your foreign language assistant to use too.

There is a speaking activity with picture prompts of using the 3rd person with the “futur proche” and forming negatives. To review understanding there is a slide of 15 sentences and pupils need to say whether they are in the future or the past. There is then a reading activity about holidays to build grammar awareness, distinguishing present past and future formations.
Pupils are then taken through the formation of the “future simple”. This is very visual using animation and clear explanations. Irregular stems are listed.

Teacher presentation to introduce "what's important to me" . The starter is a shape puzzle that recaps on school vocab.
