I wrote this text myself in French and accompanied it with the parallel English text. I use it to introduce and revise topic vocabulary (Where I used to live when I was younger / my childhood town).

You could also use it as the basis for a comprehension activity, a translation

This is a skills-based resource to begin to prepare pupils for’ photocard/picture-based discussions. I have used it successfully with Y8-Y10 (Outstanding observation awarded) but I am sure it could also work with higher ability Y7s and lower ability Y11s. I have charged for this as it took an significant amount of time to ensure that all lesson parts link perfectly.
