Challenge cards really do help to create a lively language learning environment. Students can develop, embed, reinforce and refresh their knowledge of fruits and vegetables in French in a cooperative, communicative and interactive way, independently of the teacher. They have a bonus multi-skill focus on listening, speaking, pronunciation, reading and spelling.
They’re great for helping students familiarize themselves with, and develop competence in, speaking, reading, writing and spelling longer words and more complex sentences in French. Sentence structure and word order may differ from students’ first and/or home language, so it’s important to provide them with opportunities to engage with language that moves beyond single-unit vocabulary as soon as possible. It also gives them chance to apply language in a practical, real-world context, which in turn helps embed both vocab and grammatical concepts into longer-term memory.
The questions are all in French, and range in complexity and challenge. There are 31 fruits and 33 vegetables addressed in the cards, and it’s unlikely that they are all in your teaching and learning plan. I always include additional vocabulary to add a little challenge, and to encourage students to think a little more creatively and independently.
There is an alphabetical French-English and English-French fruits and vegetables list to help students develop language awareness skills, as well as their French vocabulary. There are masculine and feminine fruits and vegetables, definite, indefinite and partitive article, and singular and plural - this really helps students familiarize themselves with grammatical concepts without explicit instruction.
There are some translation questions too - both from French to English and English to French, which is a great introduction to translation for beginner learners. I explain that there are several possible correct alternatives, as translation is not a word-for-word activity.
The question card template enables students to apply their knowledge of language and grammatical concepts creatively and practically - my students really enjoy creating questions for each other, and I encourage them to use the existing questions as a frame of reference as they create their own.
2 Sets of 36 question cards, colour & blackline, 4 per A4 (8.5 x 11) paper.

FRENCH CHALLENGE CARDS BUNDLE #1
**PRIMARY FRENCH KS3 FRENCH KS4 FRENCH GCSE FRENCH CHALLENGE CARDS** ***13 sets of challenge cards @ £1.75 each in the bundle***. ***All files are non-editable in zipped formats. The bundle is copyright, all rights reserved. It may not be copied, rewritten, shared or distributed, in whole or in part, outside your own classroom in any way. The license for purchase is a single-use license only. Please read the Terms of Use carefully.*** Challenge cards are an ideal language learning activity, providing ***multi-skill language learning*** opportunities. These sets are ideal for a range of ***French*** language classrooms from ***KS2 French / Primary French*** to ***KS3 French***, and at ***KS4 French***, students preparing for ***GCSE French*** as practice and revision. This kind of activity really does help to create a lively language learning environment. Students can develop, embed, reinforce and refresh their ***French*** language skills in a cooperative, communicative and interactive way, independently of the teacher. The questions have a ***bonus multi-skill focus on listening, speaking, pronunciation, reading and spelling***. They’re great for helping students familiarise themselves with, and develop competence in, speaking, reading, writing and spelling in ***French*** in general, and on the focus language, for example, ***conjugating French RE verbs in the present tense*** in particular. I use task not only when we're focusing on the focus language and grammar, but also for sub lessons, as an all-year-round starter, plenary and general ‘pick-me-up’ activity. The goal is not simply to learn how ***French*** works, and how patterns can be identified and applied, it’s also about enjoying working with ***French***, and to feel confident about doing so. The questions are ***differentiated***, and range in ***complexity and challenge***, with some calling specifically upon prior and new knowledge too, helping students make links and build bridges in their learning. There may be some vocabulary that students are not familiar with - these questions give them the opportunity to learn and apply new language too. Other ***grammatical concepts*** are addressed in the questions too, such as ***gender agreement***, ***direct and indirect objects***, ***personal pronouns*** and ***question formats in French***. The ***question card template*** available in some sets enables students to ***apply their knowledge practically and creatively***, which is an essential element to successful language learning. To get the most from the questions, I frequently look at the ***multiple-choice questions*** as a whole-group, identifying not only why there is a single correct response, but what the errors are in the other choices. ***Identifying errors***, and explaining precisely why something is inaccurate or incorrect, helps students to think about language a little more laterally, and ensures that they are thinking concepts through, rather than simply relying on learned responses. All sets have full answer keys and recording sheets. ***Set 1: French Numbers 0-21 : read the full outline here:*** **FRENCH NUMBERS 0-21 : 36 DIFFERENTIATED CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-numbers-0-21-challenge-cards-11843713](http://) ***Set 2: French Numbers 0-31 : read the full outline here:*** **FRENCH NUMBERS 0-31 : 36 DIFFERENTIATED CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-numbers-0-31-challenge-cards-11759386](http://) ***Set 3: French Christmas Numbers 0-31 : read the full outline here:*** **FRENCH CHRISTMAS NUMBERS 0-31 : 36 DIFFERENTIATED CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-christmas-numbers-0-31-challenge-cards-12035663](http://) ***Set 4: French Numbers 0-100 : read the full outline here:*** **FRENCH NUMBERS 0-100 : 48 DIFFERENTIATED CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-numbers-0-100-challenge-cards-11741540](http://) ***Set 5: French Dates, Days, Months & Seasons : read the full outline here:*** **FRENCH DATES, DAYS, MONTHS, SEASONS : 36 DIFFERENTIATED CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-dates-days-months-seasons-challenge-cards-11856578](http://) ***Set 6: French Fruits : read the full outline here:*** **FRENCH FRUITS : 36 DIFFERENTIATED CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-fruits-challenge-cards-12586825](http://) ***Set 7: French Vegetables : read the full outline here:*** **FRENCH VEGETABLES : 36 DIFFERENTIATED CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-vegetables-challenge-cards-12587115](http://) ***Set 8: French Fruits & Vegetables : read the full outline here:*** **FRENCH FRUITS & VEGETABLES : 36 DIFFERENTIATED CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-fruits-and-vegetables-challenge-cards-12587126](http://) ***Set 9: French Telling the Time O'Clock & Half Past the Hour : read the full outline here:*** **FRENCH TELLING THE TIME O'CLOCK & HALF PAST THE HOUR : 60 CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-telling-time-challenge-cards-1-12833553](http://) ***Set 10: French Telling the Time Quarter to & Quarter Past the Hour : read the full outline here:*** **FRENCH TELLING THE TIME QUARTER TO & QUARTER PAST THE HOUR : 60 CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-telling-time-challenge-cards-2-12833561](http://) ***Set 11: French Telling the Time Range of Analog Clock Times : read the full outline here:*** **FRENCH TELLING TIME RANGE OF ANALOGUE CLOCK TIMES : 60 CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-telling-time-challenge-cards-3-12833565](http://) ***Set 12: French ER Verbs Present Tense : read the full outline here:*** **FRENCH ER VERBS PRESENT TENSE : 48 DIFFERENTIATED CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-er-verbs-present-tense-challenge-cards-12641881](http://) ***Set 13: French RE Verbs Present Tense : read the full outline here:*** **FRENCH RE VERBS PRESENT TENSE : 48 DIFFERENTIATED CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-re-verbs-present-tense-challenge-cards-12646092](http://) Have a browse in my store for a wide range of other ***French*** teaching and learning materials, with ***French resource boxes***, ***special offer bundles*** and lots of ***freebies*** - I've included a range of challenge cards freebies for you to try. **MERCI BEAUCOUP ET BON APPRENTISSAGE !**
