A great sheet to use in the last week of term to give the pupils something focused to do when you pop on a French film. For those who aren’t entirely engrossed they can answer the questions, add some doodles and decorate or colour the sheet.
It gives a really educational focus to the film lesson (regardless of whether or not it is a TL film).
Also included is a film genres PPT.
If you are using it as part of your media module there are general questions about film and cinema and specific film review questions. They are all accessible and if you would like to add more complex/advanced questions there is a blank template for you to simply add a text boxes with more age/stage appropriate questions.

Thank you for your purchase. Please consider leaving feedback- it is very gratefully received by me and gives other buyers a clear idea of the value of the resource.
Slides 1-8: Introduce and practise vocabulary. You could also print these slides off to use as flashcard games or wall displays.
Slide 9: All family members on one slide to consolidate followed by intro of possessive pronouns.
Slide 10: Reading. Short paragraph of Juliette describing who is in her family. You could follow this up with question to your pupils ‘qui est dans ta famille?’ Pupils use Juliette’s paragraph as a model.
Slide 11 Family tree. You could use this for Q&A. eg. ‘Comment s’appelle le père de Juliette?’ ‘Il s’appelle David’.
Slide 12. Extra vocabulary. Taking pupils beyond the immediate family to include aunts and uncles, step-sisters etc. I find that it is too long-winded to teach this in a ‘drilling’ fashion so I would go through it as it is displayed in a table on the IWB and then print off as a reference sheet- particularly useful for pupils with large families.
Slide 13. ‘Les mots volants’ game. This is a chance for pupils to participate and let off a bit of steam. As the words ‘fly’ onto the board they shout them out in English. I love doing this as a whole class as it really builds confidence and enthusiasm but you could shout an individual’s name out in between words or use lollipop sticks to pick a different pupil each time.
Slide 14. ‘Qu’est-ce qui manque?’ game. I usually ask pupils to identify the word that has disappeared and tell me both the French and Englsih equivalent. You could still play as a whole class by letting the group call out the French word as it disappears and you following up with ‘and what does it mean?’
Slide 15. ‘Qui suis-je?’ Reading comprehension with famous families. Answers appear on the click.
Slide 16. Listening grid. This is very simple because most of us have access to excellent listening material but it just gives you a quick to chance to assess aural comprehension at word level. Grt pupils to writr 1-6 on mini whiteboards or in books and you choose six of the words to say, they write down the corresponding letter. You could always increase the level of challenge by including the word in a short sentence.
Slide 17. Noughts and crosses. You could use this as an exit game or as refresher the following lesson. Choose two individuals or play boys v girls. Or teacher v class.
40 Task Cards and game board.
The task cards vary in difficulty from multiple choice to translations.
This set is a Christmas theme and is an excellent follow up to my Christmas PowerPoint presentation.
All you need is willing pupils with some spare coins for counters. You don't even need dice.
I have used this myself and it is a great way to let the pupils loose and engage in something challenging and exciting. Add an element of competition and you are on to a winner!

A printable dictionary for your pupils to use as a reference but more importantly to add to throughout the year as they study new topics and encounter new words.
Each page has a section where I have written common words including nouns, verbs and adjectives and a lined section for pupils to note their own additions.
There are also reference pages for the following topics containing short glossaries of the essential words: greetings, days, months, seasons, colours, school equipment.
There is a spare page at the back that you could print multiple times should they need more space. I recommend using treasury tags to hold the dictionary pages together. This will allow the pupils the possibility of adding extra sheets and adding revision sheets as they revise the vocabulary.
If teachers request it, I will make this resource available in black and white but it looks great printed in greyscale
An 8 page booklet which explains (in an informal and light tone) how to form the perfect tense for regular -er verbs.
