Display / Printable Reference Sheet - French Classroom Language

Fantastic double-sided table of French classroom language. Huge time-saver and incredibly useful to encourage use of the target-language in lessons. Really helpful to introduce at the start of the year (or at any stage as a 'I think you're ready for this now...'). Can be printed as a big display poster, as A4 or A5 sheets and laminated as a reference point for students on classroom tables, or as an individual sheet to refer to. As well as classroom language, sheet also includes Days of the Week, Months of the Year, Numbers (overview of 1 - 1,000,000), Articles and Useful words (who, what, where, why etc. and connectives). Huge time saver! Useful with any age.

Display / Printable Booklet - French Verb Tables, Opinions and Connectives

(0)
Huge time saver! Incredibly useful! Took a day to make! Can be printed as individual A4 pages (or blown up into A3) for French 'Word Wall' display. Very useful to direct students to for help with their own work and to encourage independent learning and flow. Can also be printed as an A4 or A5 booklet for students to have an individual copy for reference in class and at home. Created as when directing students to dictionaries to help source their own verb conjugations, confusion would often ensue as no English translations / pointers on when to use each tense were given to help students who were unsure. Really helps to drive independence and so helpful when teaching as time can be spent supporting LA / pushing HA when circulating, rather than having to constantly be translating verbs to help students continue with their work. 30 pages in total. Verb tables - 24 pages! Present, perfect, imperfect, near future, simple future and conditional tenses for 12 key verbs in French and in English. Definition of when to use each tense also given on each verb table to help student understanding. Connectives - 3 pages. English and French translations given. Separated into different tables of connectives to use with any tense, the present tense, the perfect tense, the imperfect tense and finally the near future, simple future and conditional tenses. Opinions - 1 page. Postive and negative opinions given in French and in English. Ways to introduce points of view also given in table to help students extend and vary communication.

Grammar - Tenses - Near (immediate) future

Excellent resource, introducing the near future tense through the 'aller' song, with a clear table to demonstrate formation. Text message conversation between Simon and Carly of The Inbetweeners engages students and asks them to answer a series of questions designed to test their understanding of the tense. HA stretched through identification and translations of colloquialisms such as 'ma biche'. Mini-whiteboard translation activity follows to gauge understanding, and a plenary with 12 sentences to translate is the last slide. This can be printed, cut up, and used in a box as a 'Pass-the-Parcel' style game, learners could throw die to determine the phrase that they translate to their partner, or in any number of different ways. LA supported through use of lesson worksheet (print table on first slide for learners to complete), HA through extension with colloquialisms and perfect tense. Excellent for introduction at KS3 and for revision / review at KS4.
