A vocab and sentence building sheet for students to write about Christmas, plus a battleships game to play afterwards.

Six pages of revision that I prepared for my year 7 students to use independently. We are using the textbook Allez and our upcoming assessment will rely heavily on Unit 3 with some vocabulary from the first two units thrown in.
The revision booklet covers vocabulary, sentences and translation. There is a Foundation GCSE style writing activity with support down the left- hand side of the page.
This booklet would be ideal for a cover lesson.
There is also a version with the answers.

I started using a commercial resource to teach No et Moi but it was taking too long to get through the book so recently I have made some worksheets to go with each chapter, a summary in English and specific work on a paragraph or two, sometimes a link to a textivate, sometimes some questions I do as a sort of running comprehension, sometimes translation or summary to help with paper 1.
Anyway they may be useful to someone else who is having to hurry up a bit. Enjoy
