French Passé Composé with Avoir - Regular Verbs - 75 Practice Cards This resource includes two sets of 75 task cards for practicing the passé composé of regular ER, IR, and RE verbs. Half of the cards in each set use negation (ne…pas / ne…jamais / ne…pas encore) and the other half do not. One set of cards includes hints as to what the infinitives mean as well as an English translation, and the other set does not. I like to let my students use the cards with the hints as they’re becoming comfortable with the rules and the infinitives used on the cards. Once they’ve gone through the set a few times I like to switch to the set with no hints. They’ll learn so many more regular verbs than they ever would in a textbook. Included: ➯ 75 practice cards with translations in English ➯ 75 practice cards without English translations ➯ Answer key and student response sheet You also get paper free sets that students can open up on their devices as well as sets with 4 cards per page that you can print and cut to have students work with them either individually or with partners / small groups.

Les Loisirs - French 20 questions game - No prep speaking activity The game of 20 questions is a fun and effective way to practice forming French questions. This version of the game focuses on 52 nouns and verbs which are all about the les loisirs / hobbies / pastimes. This game work for any level as it is written in French and English. Want a real challenge for your upper levels or immersion students? Use the French only version! Included: 1 version with vocabulary written in French and English 1 version with vocabulary written in French only Have students work in small groups of 2-4 or project the game and use it as a whole class activity. This game includes 52 words. Many of the words may be new to your students as this game is meant not only to practice forming questions, but also to build vocabulary. I like to allow my students to look at the game chart while they play until they’re somewhat familiar with the words. After they’ve played the games a few times looking at the French-English version they feel more prepared to move on to the French only version. You could also photocopy a two sided version, one with English and French and the other with French only. One student in the small group or class chooses a word on the chart. Other students ask up to 20 questions trying to guess the secret word. The student who has chosen the secret word can answer using the following responses: OUI - NON - PARFOIS - RAREMENT - GÉNÉRALEMENT - PEUT-ÊTRE - CELA DÉPEND - PROBABLEMENT Alternative game play: To change up the game and to make it more challenging as well as practicing other skills, have the student who chooses the secret word describe it to others in the group. Instead of asking questions about the secret word, other students listen to the description and guess it.

A numbered answer key is also included so that students can work on their own.

Here’s the link to my video tutorial on how to use should have, could have, and would have in the past conditional. The study guide included with this resource follows the information given in the video lesson.

Free French School Menu #3 Have a look at what’s on the menu at my kids’ school in France. Cheese every day!! I’ll be adding more menus weekly as I receive them.

French Freebie: Activity to get your students speaking This resource is very similar to another one (also free) in which you’ll have students talking about the house, hotel, vacation, etc. of their dreams. Students will talk all about the house, etc. of their worst nightmares in this one. I like to use these resources one after the other while the content is still fresh, but the vocabulary will change dramatically when students shift from what they would love to what would give them nightmares! This is a no prep, one page activity for intermediate to advanced level students, and the content is perfectly suitable both for primary (French immersion) and secondary curriculums. There are fifteen questions that will have them talking about, for example, the house of their worst nightmares. This is meant to be a paired or small group activity, but it is NOT meant to just have students take turns describing what they would love. The idea is to imagine that everyone in the group is going to live in the house together. There will probably be some things that everyone agrees on, and there will certainly be things they will disagree on. When I have my students do this activity, it’s always fun to watch them debate what is and what is not important. In the end, they can agree to disagree! My students really have a good time with this activity, and I love seeing the imagination that they have! Here are the 15 conversation starters: DÉCRIVONS… La maison de nos pires cauchemars… L’hôtel de nos pires cauchemars… Le jardin de nos pires cauchemars… Le restaurant de nos pires cauchemars… La ville de nos pires cauchemars… L’avion de nos pires cauchemars… Les vacances de nos pires cauchemars… La voiture de nos pires cauchemars… La garde-robe de nos pires cauchemars… La chambre de nos pires cauchemars… La cuisine de nos pires cauchemars… La fête d’anniversaire de nos pires cauchemars… La plage de nos pires cauchemars… Le lac de nos pires cauchemars… Le cinéma de nos pires cauchemars…
