Useful for cover, home learning, starter activities, revision or homework. **No prep’! This resource can stand alone and be accessed by learners independently. **
This 47 page distance learning pack is based on vocabulary from Studio 1 Unit 1, personal information: animaux/araignées/capoeira/chats/chiens/cinéma/consoles de jeux/danse/foot/gâteaux/opinions/hair/eyes/personality…) but would work well as a stand-alone resource as well.

Easter booklets for Years 7-11
Pâques
This is a selection of booklets ranging from basic French Easter vocabulary matching, colouring and puzzles to higher level reading tasks further up the year groups. Each one has an accompanying answer booklet. Each booklet is usable as a stand-alone document for Easter activities. Alternatively, it could supplement your learning on Pâques.
You can use each of the sheets independently as needed within your lessons or print as an A4 booklet ready for your learners to work through. The booklet begins with a cover page to colour in to help settle your group. In-built differentiation or challenge working through the Easter booklet means that all children should be able to access the learning independently, allowing you to help those who most need it. It would therefore also work well as a cover lesson.
I would recommend black and white copies be lightened slightly as the coloured boxes can make the text a little harder to read than in colour.
Year 7
Vocabulary: BASIC Joyeuses Pâques, C’est Pâques, un lapin, une cloche, un (grand) œuf, un panier, des chocolats, une croix, un agneau, des tulipes, un poussin, une église, des jonquilles,

It can be used on its own as an introduction to the unit, or as consolidation if you’ve already introduced the vocabulary and structures. Built-in differentiation and instructions on how you could use each slide.

Harking back to the FCSE. This was a handy sheet for level 4 revision… Now it would serve well as a good cover sheet if groups have covered the vocab’ I’ve put in the title. Even if they haven’t it would be a good dictionary worksheet for cover. Year 8 and possibly lower ability year 9.
Simple introduction to basic food stuffs. Includes vocab’ and pictures, a noughts and crosses and an activity you could use to match pictures and words if the pictures were cut out and mixed up. Suits Year 7 or low ability.
