First lesson of the year - Everything you need! - French

Excellent first lesson of the year, comprehensively covering slide-by-slide all that you need your new class to know in an accessible and fun way.

Helps you to get to know your students, their learning preferences and personalities, and helps them to get to know each-other too, setting them up for some great learning. Also gets you off to a brilliant start with your expectations through a whole-class ‘Partnership Agreement’ that they create and sign.

I use this template every year with every class that I teach and it always works brilliantly. They have a lot of fun, as do you, and you also get all of the bits sorted that you need to without missing anything out (an overview of the year, books, seating plan etc.), which is easily done at the start of a busy term.

Recommended especially for new teachers. Clear instructions on each slide and places for you to insert your own information. 15 slides in total:

1. Resources you need for the lesson.
2. Space to insert your seating plan.
3. Date, title, LO, starter slide.
4. Our Partnership Agreement slide.
5. Expectations / building on slide before.
6. ‘Mon cahier d’exercice’ slide.
7. Getting to know each other - The two truths game.
8. As above - teacher’s answers.
9. My promise to you (what you will do as a teacher to help their learning).
10. Raffle tickets and how they work, if you decide to use to reinforce positive behaviour.
11. Our lessons - overview of the number of lessons each week, report and Parents’ Evening dates and topics.
12. Help me to understand your learning activity.
13. Examples of feedback from activity above.
14. As before.
15. Lotto game!
