French Transport and Vehicles BUNDLE

This French MFL / FSL Key Stage 2 or Key Stage 3 (KS2 / KS3) BUNDLE will help you plan a Le Transport, Les Moyens de Transport or Les Véhicules en Français (Means of Transportation / Vehicles in French) unit. It contains a 100+ slide interactive PowerPoint presentation, flash cards, worksheets, puzzles, printable games and activities. There are resources here for multiple lessons to teach and review vocabulary and phrases through speaking, reading and writing activities. There’s also differentiation to suit different abilities or levels of French experience.

My French basics / beginners resources are designed for Year 4, 5, 6 and 7 (and equivalents in other countries) but might suit others, depending on experience. Please check the previews. Due to a small number of differences between UK and US (‘lorry’ is changed to ‘truck’ and ‘van’ is replaced by the very common ‘pick-up truck’ etc), there are additional US versions of all resources. The word ‘transportation’ replaces ‘transport’ in the US versions too.

All resources are in PDF, apart from the presentation, which is a PowerPoint (but it is also included in PDF).

 
The following 3 resource packs are included in this money-saving bundle:

French Transport Worksheets and Puzzles
French Transport Games and Activities
French Transport Presentation and Flash Cards
