IGCSE Studio French revision: 8 Fun 'One Pen, One Dice' translation activities

This pack includes 8 engaging “One Pen, One Dice” activities, covering all 8 IGCSE Edexcel Studio French modules— ideal for revising writing skills.

Each worksheet contains:

• 10 short French paragraphs that students must quickly translate into English.
• A differentiated version where key words are hidden, providing an extra challenge for more advanced students.
• An answer sheet to allow students to self-mark, saving you time.
  The paragraphs are adapted from the STUDIO GCSE textbook, making them highly effective for independent revision of both writing and speaking skills ahead of exams.
• A docx template for you to create your own one pen one dice game.

In the classroom, these activities are perfect as starters, plenaries, or as part of a revision session.

Instructions : Students work in pairs with one pen and one dice. One person starts translating the text, while the other continuously rolls the dice. When a 6 is rolled, they shout “six” or “stop” and swap roles. The first to complete the translation wins.
