Here is a task I made for my end of the year lessons. You have to cut the pictures, the description and the names and the children have to match them after reading the description. It is in English as the language would be too complex for my primary children. This can be used as an end of year task.

Each slide has the correct answer. The last two slides can be used as visual prompt. The pupils have to tell what students have (stationery, clothes, hair) or what there is in the classroom.

Here is a powerpoint you can use to introduce the topics on holidays and the near future. The first slide recaps/ introduces the verb aller at the present tense (get the pupils to give the correct answers). The next slides can be used as a pair work or group work. Then there is translation task (spot the mistakes). Slide 10 can be used as battle ship task. Slide 11 is a class game (boys vs girls), say a sentence using aller for each picture. Slides 12 and 13 are ‘find the following…in the text’. Last slide can be used as visual for a plenary

I created these two powerpoints, worksheet and snakes and ladders board game using famous football players in order to motivate my lower ability classes (heavy on boys mainly interested in football) and famous Disney characters and female players (girls). It can be used as a way to teach saying our name and asking someone their name, introducing French numbers up to twenty, saying how we feel and finally saying how old we are.

Here are various resources (a powerpoint presentation, an A4 sheet to laminate in order to draw correct number of candles to say the age, snap cards to practise counting, some bingo cards and a snake and ladder board to practise saying j’ai…ans). I started to teach French to SEN year 7 and year 8 and made these resources to support the pupils with speaking and listening tasks.

Here are three powerpoints to introduce adjectives to describe ourselves. One powerpoint aims at practising ‘je suis’ and the other focuses on ‘il est’ and elle est’. The third one is a mixed of ‘je suis’, ‘il est’ and ‘elle est’. I have added other famous characters from Roald Dahl and David Walliams. I have also included two differentiated worksheets to practise writing ‘je suis’ .

Here are various resources linked to the King Charles III’s. The first powerpoint contains some challenging language but it goes a worksheet (cut strips of paper and match the French paragraphs with the English ones) in order to help the pupils understand tricky language. Linked to this powerpoint is an easier translation task. The pupils have to work out the meaning of key vocabulary and label the pictures with the correct French word. The second powerpoint only has key words to practise. I get them to choose 4 or 6 key words from the last slide and play bingo. Linked to this simplified powerpoint, I have attached a wordsearch and simple cross-words. There are two differentiated reading tasks (royal family, colour of hair, eyes, family relation and age) and a very simple on King Charles and pets/animals. Pupils will have to fill in the missing words.

Here is a powerpoint to practise /describe the colour of pets. I included two slides to recap pets and colours first. Then I explain the rules with colour adjectives. Next I show some pictures and the pupils have to work out and write down on their whiteboard the colour of the pets. There are also a ‘correct or incorrect’ and ‘choose the correct answers’ tasks. I included two differentiated reading and writing tasks where the pupils have to apply the grammatical rules with colours.

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 a couple of worksheets on fruit (label the fruit) and writing short sentences. You will also find a speaking task (guess your partner’s choice for each opinion).

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.
