Here are some resources (matching cards which can be used as memory game if you turn them over, an assessment or a reading task match the time with the correct clock) 5 in a row time game, and two writing and reading tasks) to practise time in French.

Here are few resources I have prepared for my year 6 pupils. You will find an ‘encore une fois’ speaking/reading activity (one child picks some food or a drink and the other child has to guess what his/her partner has chosen. Every time they get it wrong, they read from the start). You will also find a worksheet on food and opinions. I have also prepared a snakes and ladders board with pictures to practise saying name of food and drinks. I have also included a 5 in a 5 differentiated row board game that they can play in pairs (one with written support, one without). To help them design a food poster and sorting food into food groups, I have found some French poster. This can used as a way to recap food and drinks. Finally there is a blockbuster game (boys vs girls) with food and drinks.

Here is a bundle of various reading and writing tasks to practise French numbers 1 to 60. I have created these tasks to keep my lower ability pupils busy. These don’t require a great amount of writing but help them learn their French numbers in a creative way. You will find a couple of puzzle tasks (match the digit with the words), a colour matching task, ‘spot the correct spelling’ task, a battle-ship task and a writing task with plenty of support.

Here is another worksheet I have created around the World Cup 2022. There is wordsearch with the names of the countries in French. There is a grammar task (sorting them into masculin, feminin and pluriel category and using the correct article). Finally there is a task around colours as the pupils have to colour the flags and write down the country in French. I have attached the answer sheet.

Here is a powerpoint presentation and a worksheet on French Christmas with moderate to challenging language.On each slide you will find a recording attached (check speaker icon). You can play it without showing the slide and use it as a listening/comprehension task. I have attached a worksheet with questions to answer in English and some vocabulary to find in the powerpoint. I have also attached the answer sheet. If the sound does not work on each slide, I have attached a Youtube link with the audio recording.

Here are three listening tasks (two on the 2018 World Cup and one on 2022 World Cup). I have copied and pasted the Youtube link. This is an authentic resource made by the Federation Francaise de Foot. It gives the opportunity to engage pupils’ interest especially the boys’. The pupils will be able to see listen and see some famous players getting their lunch while doing this comprehension task. It offers opportunity to recap previous learning on food and greetings.

I made these worksheets for my year 6 but they can be used for older pupils. The various tasks will help practise their writing skill on breakfast food and drinks. The cross-words task can be used with help or with very little help depending on your children’s ability. For my class I only added a few letters for each word and they have to work out what could be the breakfast food. There is also a battleship to practise speaking as a pair-work.

Here is a powerpoint presentation on rooms of the house with family members and pets. I made it as a guessing game to encourage my primary children to say where mon pere, ma mere, mon frere, ma soeur, mon chien and mon chat are (all the answers are on the last slide). I would use the battle-ship template or the worksheet (piece de la maison, famille and verb etre) as a written support to help them say correctly the sentence. I have included a lot of written support for my primary but it can be obviously be deleted and adapted for more confident learners. Attached to this powerpoint are some worksheets (differentiated) I made to practise writing and reading skills.

Here is a booklet (with differentiated tasks) on the Football Word Cup 2022. It gives the opportunity to recap names of countries/nationalities and the languages spoken. It also gives the opportunity to recap colours (flags) and tackles geographical and general knowledge. I have also attached the answer sheets. NB: To introduce players, I had in mind the clubs they play or played for and therefore the language they had to learn. However some football players may speak more languages e.g. Kylian Mbappe is apparently fluent in English and Spanish but has only played in France.

Here is a powerpoint I created for my primary children to recap the weather and the days of the week. The third slide gives the opportunity to practise reading and writing skills as the children have to spot the correct sentence. I have used pictures pictures of famous towns and places in France. The worksheets have various differentiated tasks

Here is a worksheet to practise your present tense with various verbs. The sentences are all related to identity and culture. I often try to model authentic French sentences that students can use in their own writing and speaking practice. You will find the answer sheet.

Two Powerpoint presentations (one with an audio recording by a native French speaker and one without) to help you teach and practise the Halloween vocabulary. You will also find two diffrentiated worksheets to practise reading and writing skills. I have also included a slide on some French phonemes.

A powerpoint to introduce or recap colour of hair and colour of eyes (with Disney characters, Harry Potter and famous portraits). I added other details e.g. j’ai des lunettes, une moustache, une barbe, un chapeau. I have also attached a couple of snakes and ladders to practise this topic.

Here is a range of resources to practise common French words and short sentences. They can be used as a recap or to introduce French to new learners. There are a card game and a snakes and ladders game to practise speaking. There is a worksheet with differentiated tasks (the first two are for LA and the last two can be used for MA or HA children). Finally I made a powerpoint with audio recording (can be deleted) to listen to the sound of these common words/expressions. There is a slide on some French sounds and children have to list the words that have these sounds.

Here is a range of activities for pupils to practise the future tense. The activities are all related to the holiday topic. I prepared three differentiated tasks. I made a fairly easy one to use for the lower ability pupils focusing mainly on the first person of the singular. The other two sets of cards have more challenging vocabulary (countries, leisure, time expressions, various pronouns and expressing a few opinions). These speaking tasks would suit year 10/11 who needs to practise their oral. It can also support them for writing about their future holidays by modelling correct use of future tense. The speaking tasks are to be used in pairs or in a group (one pupil shows the card, he/she hides one sentence and the others have to translate it in the other language).The quickest pupils to translate it correctly wins the card, at the end they count who has the most cards. After several speaking practices, pupils work on the worksheet (two different levels). I have also attached the correct answers for the writing tasks.

Here are two comprehension tasks with differentiated questions. It’s a long text using past and future tense. One worksheet contains questions in French to answer using full sentences, some translation and a short grammar task on some frequency verbs. The other sheet has questions in English. It would suit well a high ability year 9/year 10. This text can also be used later as a model to support their own writing. I have attached the answer sheet.

This quiz contains 43 questions on French historical figures, landmarks, fashion brands, culture…etc. For each question there is choice of three or more answers. I have used it with my year 6 but it can be used with older pupils e.g. ks3 and ks4. I have also attached the answers sheet.

Two worksheets to practise using the verb etre at the present tense with different pronouns and adjectives. There is a also a speaking activity card game to be used in group or with a partner. Children have to translate into the French/ English. Suitable for upper keystage 2 children (year 6 or high ability year 5) but also suitable for Ks3 pupils (year 7, 8 and 9) who need to practise this high frequency verb.

These worksheets have been created to help year 6 children order breakfast food and drinks while visiting France. I use ‘je voudrais’ but this can be changed to ‘je mange’ and ‘je bois’. They would suit perfectly upper ks2 children and ks3 pupils.

Few worksheets with differentiated tasks to practise using adjectives to describe ourselves. I used resources from Bruno Guillemin to introduce some of the vocabulary. These worksheets would suit well primary aged children (year 3 to year 6) and lower ability secondary children (year 7).
