This worksheet allows pupils to work together to talk about holidays, including their opinion, different tenses and activities. They choose an option on each line and give a sentence or phrase to make it make sense.

This PPT introduces how to say that you like or don't like doing or playing something (using 'gern' and 'nicht gern'). The activities include sports and instruments. Having noted how to say like/don't like, pupils then put the sentences in the correct column. Finally, play a game of Random Scores.

To begin with, pupils match the definition from Wikipedia to the appropriate sport on the screen. At the end of the presentation, there is a random score team game to practise the vocab.

This resource practises questions, sports and developing answers.

This PPT shows a short description of one of the four gadgets in French and pupils must correctly identify the gadget.

Pupils work in pairs. Give them a text to translate on the sheet individually to start with, then they swap for their partner to check (in their opinion). Their partner puts a mark in the box (my pupils like drawing sad faces for some reason!) for each error they think their partner has made. Encourages discussion.

I use this to do 'walk-throughs' with classes, especially GCSE. Show them the first section to translate, discuss and then show them how you translated it. Feedback from my classes has been great for this. They have found it very useful. It's almost like doing 'workings out' in maths.

This can be used in many different ways. For example, students play in teams. They choose a number in turns. Teacher reads out a word related to the topic and pupils have to translate it or maybe give a sentence with that word in it. If they are correct, reveal that number. They receive a point if there is ‘treasure’ under the number. There are 5 different templates here, as students may remember where the treasure is hidden! There are 5 different slides, so pupils can't learn where the treasure is!

Quite simply, a template for WWTBAM!

Vocab spinners. Cut these out and use them to revise vocab. Stick a stick in the middle and pupils spin it! On the second slide are the cards to use with the spinner. Pupils pick up one of the cards and do the challenge from the spinner. The challenges are: spell it, write it, define it, use it.

Play Trivial Pursuit as a class to practise different topics. Teams choose a number, which links to an unknown topic. They must then talk about that topic. If they do well, they earn a cheese.

Pupils work in teams to come up with 10 items of vocab within the topic area of weather. They write their words down on a piece of paper and give a second copy to the teacher. The idea is to come up with the ‘most obscure’ word (i.e. with the lowest score). Someone must add up each team’s score after their 10 words. The team with the lowest score wins! TIP: Print out a copy of the list on slide 3, so you can cross off the phrases done.

Great for building both confidence and the use of spoken/written phrases. In 2 teams, each one takes it in turns to choose a rectangle. Team 1 chooses a noun from the first row and has to give a phrase using that noun (e.g. J’ai un chien.) It’s best to note down what they say. Then team 2 chooses an adjective from the second row and has to repeat what Team 1 said and add more to the phrase using an adjective (e.g. J’ai un chien blanc.) Then Team 1 chooses a connective from row 3, etc. Jot down one point for each correct phrase. This continues until one of the teams either gives an incorrect phrase or can’t think of one. The opposite team get the total points. Start again if you like, using the nouns, etc that haven’t been used.

The text is on the topic of school and is aimed more at KS3. In 2 teams, pupils choose a word to find in the text. The pupils don’t know what each word is worth. Click on the word they have chosen when they have correctly identified it in the text and their score will be revealed. The winning team is the team with the highest score once all words have been found in the text.

Use this PPT to introduce the topic of school rules.

Pupils have a copy each of this sheet. In conversation, they must tick off as many opinion phrases as possible, by using them logically and sensibly in their conversation. Could be a competition to see who uses the most!

Use this resource to practise ordering an ice cream. Using the grid at the top of the page, pupils change certain details in the conversation, depending on what number is rolled on their dice.
