For students new to French and for those who have been studying French for a while I have designed a series of worksheets that cover French grammar beginning with the very basics, explaining grammar points in English and then the equivalent in French. It helps my students to understand why we need to learn grammar when learning a language and is also an opportunity to revise English grammar too. Exercise 1. Nouns has exercises in both languages and comes with an answer sheet for self correction. Two versions attached, one is a word document and the second is a more student friendly version in colour.

French speaking day is a work sheet designed to inform students about the many countries where French is spoken, give an insight into the new words that are added to the French language, possibilities for geographical research, questions and a word search with answers.

Films for Christmas is designed as an end of term alternative activity. Test students memory skills, recognition of words, spot missing vowels, un jumble words and matching activity as well as a list of possible follow-up tasks. With the answer sheet for self/peer/teacher assessment.

A set of questions and answers, a PowerPoint presentation giving up to date information about the tour with hyperlinks to the TDF website and a set of key words with answers and some extra tasks. I hope you enjoy teaching your classes about the Tour de France as much as I do.
