L’heure - French Telling Time - 12 Hour Clock - Fortune Tellers - Cootie Catchers
Use fortune tellers / cootie catchers to have students practice telling time in French using a 12 hour clock. Your students already love them, and fortune tellers are a perfect activity for reviewing this important skill at any time of the year.
This resource includes 5 fortune tellers for saying the time in French and instructions on how to use the activity and fold the paper. See the preview for a sneak peak.

L’heure - Telling Time in French - 12 & 24 Hour - J’ai . . . Qui a Games - BUNDLE
J’ai . . . Qui a games are a fun, quick, and easy way to have your beginner students review and practice telling time in French.
This bundle is 20% off and includes games using 12 and 24 hour clocks.
Each activity includes 21 cards. Depending on class size you can give each student more than one card or have them play in smaller groups. I recommend printing out and laminating these cards if possible so that you can use them over and over again.
The 12 hour clock set includes plenty of opportunities to use the following vocabulary: et demie, et quart, moins le quart, midi, minuit, moins vingt, etc. See the list of times used for the 12 hour and 24 hour clock games below or check out the previews to have a sneak peak at all of the cards.
How it works: Once each student has a card (or cards), the one who has the card that says Je commence le jeu begins the activity. He says, for example, Je commence le jeu. Qui a 3h30? The person who has the card with J’ai 3h30 on it says, J’ai 3h30. Qui a 7h15? And so the game goes on until the last card is called and that student’s card will say, J’ai _____. Le jeu est terminé!
Another idea is to prepare two sets of cards, divide your class into two groups and let each group have a go to see which team can get through the entire deck of cards the fastest. It’s a very engaging and fun activity!
Included:
21 black and white cards - 4 per page - 12 hour clock
