French Teaching Resources. PowerPoint & Battleships La santé! Healthy Living: The Imperative

French PowerPoint C’est bon pour la santé! Healthy Living: The Imperative.

Expressions taught:

Bois de l’eau.
Ne bois pas de sodas.
Mange des fruits.
Ne mange pas de bonbons.
Va au collège à pied.
Ne va pas au lit trop tard.
Fais du sport.
Ne fume pas!


The first slides have the phrase and a picture. Use this to elicit the pronunciation, the English and to drill.

The next section of slides have multiple choice questions.

Then there are "what's missing?" slides. The final slide has pictures of all the phrases. This can be used for a Beat the Teacher game, which the students love! The teacher points to a picture and says a word. If it is the correct word the students all repeat it. If its the wrong word the students must stay absolutely silent. If they do, they win 1 point. If not, the teacher gets 1 point. Most points wins!

The French battleships game can be used to practise these expressions. This can also be used as a grid to play lotto/ bingo.

This can then be followed by my PowerPoint on the Imperative.
