Two versions of the book in the imperfect tense to suit your class (quand j'étais petit et quand j'étais petite).
You can also check the Youtube video I made on the same topic:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D66r8guvfDc
Some ideas how to use it in class:
- Simply read the story to French beginners
- Work out the meaning of the book in pairs with the pictures as an aid
- Show them the first two pages and identify patterns (which tense is it/what are the endings of the imperfect)
- Only show the picture and ask the students to write a sentence about it in the imperfect tense following the same pattern (then show them the possible answer)
- Ask them to create a similar book in the IT suite or for homework
Please do not hesitate to share more ideas in the messages below! Thank you very much!
I hope you will enjoy my resources and if you have a question on the book, please do not hesitate to contact me or leave me a message. I would really appreciate some feedback :-) Thank you very much.
