Pupils roll a dice and then conjugate the given -er verb. Answers can be revealed at the end.

Teach pupils how to say 'of it' and 'of them' using 'en', using this presentation.

When teaching a lesson about using different tenses, show this on the board as pupils enter the room, giving them something to think about and get them ready for French! Each slide is timed and so can be played on its own. On each slide are words, such as 'hier', 'demain', etc.

Pupils roll the dice and then: ask a question, give a statement, say something positive, say something negative, say something in the future, say something in the past about a given topic.

In pairs, pupils roll a dice to carry out the plenary tasks you have entered on the slide. To make it more challenging, pupils must change one detail in the phrase.

Give the students a gap-fill text with 10 gaps in it (A to I). Of course, this can be more or fewer gaps – just remember to adjust the A to I in the table. In each gap in the text, write a letter (A to I). Along the corresponding row in the table, give 6 alternatives to go in that gap. Pupils then choose one by rolling a dice. When the student reaches the gap, they roll a dice and say/write the corresponding word.

Fill each slide with a question. Pupils choose a question number and teacher clicks on the number to take them to that question.

This is a translation lesson (from French into English) based on the lives of two different children of the same age in Haiti and the United States. The PPT includes a starter activity based on connectives and then looks at where both countries are and then to the two different texts to translate. The worksheet is the two texts. I get my students to write a rough translation on rough paper before copying their final version into their books, along with a copy of the French texts and each flag.

Cut the paragraph up on card (it's already spaced out for this) and pupils work in pairs to put the text into a logical order.

Pupils correct the adjective endings, where necessary. The sentences describe teachers, so of course change the names!

Get pupils to stick this reference sheet into their books and learning about and practising the perfect tense in French. It includes a list of the past participles of the most common verbs.

This PPT introduces the possessive pronouns 'my' and 'your' in French.

Class dominoes is a great way to get the whole class involved and to keep their attention! Full instructions are in the document.

Say an item in the bedroom at random in the target language and pupils raise their left hands if there’s a blue ‘L’ underneath the picture, their right hands if there’s a green ‘R’ underneath the picture and both hands if there’s a red ‘L&R’ underneath the picture.

Use this resource to practise talking about TV. Using the grid at the top of the page, pupils change certain details in the conversation, depending on what number is rolled on their dice.

Type words or a couple of words into each white box underneath the letters. This could be a text or a sequence of numbers, letters, etc. Get the pupils on their feet. As you read through each box, they should raise their Left, Right or Both hands appropriately. You could get them to read with you, get another pupil to read instead of you or maybe even read it increasingly quickly.

For pairwork activities. Full instructions are on the document, but the basic idea is that pupils try to guess each element of a phrase or short paragraph in a limited amount of attempts.

This is a great starter idea to practise new vocab. You will probably have to explain the concept of the letters on the number pads of phones. Use the grid to spell out words using numbers, instead of letters (e.g. 'B' is 22 and 'Y' is 999).

I’ve used this for A level French, as a starter, discussing the different viewpoints of de Gaulle and Pétain during the occupation of France in WW2. It’s the ideal way to get pupils moving and to wake them up! In the above example, I had a picture of de Gaulle for the left hand and Pétain for the right. Students had to then read the clue and decide who it referred to.

Choose eleven phrases. Pupils take it in turns in groups, or as a class, to say the phrases in order. If they say one phrase, the sequence of people speaking continues as normal. If a pupils says two phrases, the order changes direction so the person before them says the next phrase(s). If a pupils says three phrases, the next person is missed. This PPT allows you to display both the chosen phrases and a reminder of the instructions.
