French Numbers 0-31 J’ai… Qui a… ? This is a whole-group lively & communicative language learning game, perfect for practicing, reinforcing & refreshing how to count from 0 - 31 in French. The game has a multi-skill focus: listening, speaking & reading, with an important bonus focus on social interaction and participation. It’s perfect for pronunciation practice too.
The aim of the game is to create a French number chain as quickly as possible, starting with the first card zéro , and ending with the final card, trente et un. The game works just as well if the number sequence is placed on the floor, a longish table, or other flat surface. I created the game for my young beginner learners, but I’ve also played the game with my adult learners, who really enjoy it too - the monster theme is popular with everyone! The design is four cards per page, which allows for a large font - this is really important for beginner language learners who are starting to familiarize themselves with the written word. Try to print in color if you can - it adds to the visual appeal of the game, which is a real motivator for learning.
Download, print out, laminate, cut out & shuffle the cards. I’d definitely recommend you laminate the cards, despite the extra prep and expense. They’re far more learner-friendly, and they will last for absolutely years. Distribute the cards, one or two per student, depending on how many students you have in your group. I often play too - students really do enjoy it when I join in, and they seem to work that little bit harder on their concentration and pronunciation. Students walk around the room, talking to each other in their best French accent, sharing the information on their cards, until they have arranged the numbers in the correct order. The game works best played against a timer, regularly over a longer-term series of lessons - can students beat beat their own time record? I always do some high-speed counting warm-up activities, forwards & backwards, to get everyone ready to play!

FRENCH CLASSROOM LANGUAGE POSTERS BUNDLE #1
**PRIMARY FRENCH IMMERSION FRENCH FOR CHILDREN BEGINNER FRENCH CLASSROOM LANGUAGE FRENCH TARGET LANGUAGE POSTERS TWO SETS @ $4.50 EACH IN THE BUNDLE** ***All files are non-editable in a zipped format. They are copyright, all rights reserved. They may not be copied, rewritten, shared or distributed in any way. The license for purchase is a single-user license only. Please read the Terms of Use.*** ***French target language display posters*** creating an instant introduction to ***40 commonly-used expressions in your French classroom***. The posters also give the learning environment a fabulous ***French*** look and feel, promoting ***French*** as a living language, featuring in the everyday life of your learners. They introduce learners to a range simple everyday language in ***French*** from the very beginning of their learning, and they are able to familiarize themselves with both the ‘look’ of ***French*** words, and how sounds are represented in the written form. The language is simple and effective, suitable for absolute beginners. I use the posters to ***promote use of the target language*** in contexts that we meet frequently and regularly, such as ***Asseyez-vous ! Levez la main ! and Qui a fini ?*** There are some greetings, such as ***Bonne journée ! and Bonjour tout le monde !*** It’s important to ***build routines in the languages classroom***, using only the ***target language***, and avoiding translating everything orally when we speak to learners. It’s easy to ***develop conversational routines*** too, starting with greetings, and asking how people are - I generally do this with ***talk time***, encouraging learners to ask each other how they are for example. The posters do show the ***English translation***, as I’ve found that this facilitates learner understanding initially, and certainly helps them feel more confident in the very early stages. I explain that the words do not necessarily match correctly, for example ***Quel jour sommes-nous ? literally means What day are we?*** but translating correctly means recreating meaning in the second language: ***in English, we ask What is the date today?*** This is really useful knowledge for both current and future learning. I also move the posters around a little in our first lesson, and give learners sheets with certain expressions in English, and they walk around looking for the corresponding expression in ***French***, writing it down on their sheet - I've included one of these in each set. I’ve found this to be a really successful way of getting learners to ***write and spell correctly in French***, again from the very beginning of their learning. I definitely focus a lot on ***pronunciation***, emphasizing that words often do not sound how they look - ***accurate pronunciation*** needs a lot of practice, and the written word can actually confuse learners unless we work on pronunciation and producing the accurate sounds of words, and look closely at ***linking spelling with sound***. ***The expressions in Set 1 are*:** Let's speak French; Hello everyone; Goodbye everyone; How are you?; I'm very well thanks; Sit down please; Stand up please; Look please; Listen please; Repeat please; Everyone together; Once again; Put your hands up; Don't shout out; Put your hands down; Quietly please; Stop please; Put your things away; Well done ***The expressions in Set 2 are*:** Do you understand?; Yes, I understand; A volunteer please; Let's start please; Put your pencils down; Open your workbooks; Close your workbooks; Who has finished?; I have finished; Louder please; Have a good day; Have a good weekend; Sit in a circle; What is your name?; My name is...; What is the date today?; The date us...; More quickly; More slowly; Very good There are two backgrounds to choose from - ***French flag*** or plain white to keep prep costs to a minimum, 80 posters in total. Laminate if possible: they will display really well, are far easier to manipulate as flashcards, and will remain in excellent condition for years. ***Have a browse in my store for more French resources, including special offer bundles and freebies.*** **MERCI BEAUCOUP ET BON APPRENTISSAGE !**

FRANCE COUNTRY FACTS & ACTIVITIES BUNDLE #1
**FRENCH FOR CHILDREN BEGINNER FRENCH FRANCE COUNTRY FACTS & ACTIVITIES 2 SETS @ $3.75 EACH IN THE BUNDLE** ***eight topics areas: arts & culture; country/society; famous people; food; geography; history; landmarks and language*** ***Files are non-editable in a zipped format. The product is copyright, all rights reserved. It may not be copied, rewritten, amended, shared or distributed outside your own classroom in any way. The license for purchase is a single-user license only. Please read the Terms of Use.*** Creating a lively language learning environment for young learners of French, and offering a popular alternative to more traditional, teacher-led***information about France*** lessons. Children can develop their knowledge of the francophone world - and through guided whole-group discussion - their home / host country too, in a cooperative, communicative and interactive way, in part independently of the teacher. There is a ***bonus multi-focus on listening, speaking, pronunciation, reading, writing and spelling***, and is a great way of ***introducing cross-curricular learning in your world languages classroom***, aligning language learning with other areas of the curriculum, such as ***geography, history, and developing literacy skills in both French and English***. ***The bundle comprises the following non-editable files*:** ***40 facts cards*** - there are four facts in each of the following topic groups: ***geography; arts & culture; country/society; famous people; history; landmarks; language and food***. There are four cards per 8.5x11 (A4) sheet. The language on each of the cards ranges from fairly basic to more advanced, which challenges and enhances children’s English reading comprehension skills. There are blank templates for children to research and create their own facts cards for each other. This is a really successful way of building knowledge and learning together. As their knowledge and understanding of the ***French-speaking world*** grows, children should add to their facts cards, which eventually builds up into a fabulous facts bank, which they can use the entire school year, and beyond. ***Facts recording sheet challenge level 1*** - there are two options: either two or four fact recording boxes per page. Children read their selected facts, and copy the information in the boxes. Encourage children to be as accurate as possible with their spelling and punctuation, to pay particular attention to the spelling and accents of the French words that are included, and of course to make sure they are recording the facts in their best handwriting ***Facts recording sheet challenge level 2*** - there are also two options: two or four fact recording boxes in this challenge level. However, there is a more open-ended task: responding to the question ***“What did you learn?”***. This requires children to read their fact card, process the information, and then recreate it in their own words, describing the fact in the context of what they have learned. Encourage children to look for lateral information, such as the existence of other countries where ***French*** is spoken, and to think about the continent where those countries are located. ***48 question / comprehension cards*** - the questions have a differentiated range of challenge, and are based on the knowledge developed through the whole-group presentation and discussion, and the facts cards. There are some ***independent research questions***, which I use as a springboard for further discussion based on children’s own developing interests about ***France***. There are blank templates here too - creating questions is a great way to think about and apply knowledge and learning. ***question / comprehension cards recording sheets***: the recording sheet has four boxes per page. I encourage children to write their answer in full sentences, and to give as much relevant information as they can. They can also give more detailed responses than they can learn from the cards, engaging in further independent research. I like to combine this activity where possible with organised visits to the school library to gather relevant titles on ***France and La Francophonie***, and do allow children to access ***pre-vetted websites***. ***2 x whole-group facts presentation & discussion*** - I’ve found this a really useful means of encouraging and stimulating classroom discussion. Children can reflect on what they may already know about ***France***, and share it with their peers. Use the facts themselves to prompt discussion about the home / host country, for example ***“What is our capital city? Is it also our largest city?”,*** which really does create a successful cross-curricular learning environment. The activities work really well across a series of lessons, rather than a single lesson. Print, laminate and cut out the cards - laminating is certainly worth the prep time, as the cards will last for many years. You can either give each small group of children a complete set of cards to choose from, or any particular number you think is appropriate. Decide how long you want the reading and writing activity to last for, and tell children how many cards you would like them to work with. This is quite a ***basic way of differentiating the activity***. Children can then select random cards from their bowl. You can also select particular cards yourself if you prefer to ***differentiate by content, seating plan or learning groups*** for example. ***Have a browse in my store for more country facts activities, and a wide range of other French resources created for young beginner learners, with French dollar deals, special offer bundles, and lots of freebies too - I've included a couple here for you to try.*** **MERCI BEACOUP ET BON VOYAGE !**
