Files are non-editable in a zipped format. This product is copyright, all rights reserved. It may not be copied, rewritten, amended, shared or distributed in any way outside your own classroom. The license for purchase is a single-user license only. Please read the Terms of Use carefully.

The set features a range of high-frequency French Christmas vocabulary, useful either as an introduction to, or consolidation of, the target language. Students can also develop, embed, reinforce and refresh their general French language skills in a cooperative, communicative and interactive way, independently of the teacher. The questions are differentiated, and are aimed at advanced beginner French students. They address not only French numbers 0-31, French mathematical language and French Christmas vocabulary, but also a broad range of grammar points, such as definite and indefinite articles, question formats and gender agreement in French.

All the questions are in French, with the Christmas images providing students with visual learning support. The Christmas vocabulary and images help to develop students’ awareness of a range of Christmas traditions and figures in French-speaking countries, such as galette des Rois and Père Fouettard, which I’ve translated as Father Fouettard, rather than ‘Whipping Father’, and are also really useful for stimulating discussion about French Christmas practices and customs. This is a great alternative to more standard presentations and worksheets. Students also enjoy talking about other Christmas traditions they know or follow.

The resource comprises the following non-editable files:
= 48 differentiated question cards - laminate if possible, as they will remain in excellent condition for years
= answer key - this can also be laminated, and shared among groups of students for class work
= answer recording sheet - simply print as many as your particular groups need. My students generally use their class workbooks for working out and noting responses, though recording sheets are definitely useful for more formal assessment purposes.

FRENCH CHALLENGE CARDS BUNDLE #1

**PRIMARY FRENCH KS3 FRENCH KS4 FRENCH GCSE FRENCH CHALLENGE CARDS** ***13 sets of challenge cards @ £3.00 each in the bundle***. ***All files are non-editable in zipped formats. The bundle is copyright, all rights reserved. It may not be copied, rewritten, shared or distributed, in whole or in part, outside your own classroom in any way. The license for purchase is a single-use license only. Please read the Terms of Use carefully.*** Challenge cards are an ideal language learning activity, providing ***multi-skill language learning*** opportunities. These sets are ideal for a range of ***French*** language classrooms from ***KS2 French / Primary French*** to ***KS3 French***, and at ***KS4 French***, students preparing for ***GCSE French*** as practice and revision. This kind of activity really does help to create a lively language learning environment. Students can develop, embed, reinforce and refresh their ***French*** language skills in a cooperative, communicative and interactive way, independently of the teacher. The questions have a ***multi-skill focus on listening, speaking, pronunciation, reading and spelling***. They’re great for helping students familiarise themselves with, and develop competence in, speaking, reading, writing and spelling in ***French*** in general, and on the focus language, for example, ***conjugating French RE verbs in the present tense*** in particular. I use task not only when we're focusing on the focus language and grammar, but also for sub lessons, as an all-year-round starter, plenary and general ‘pick-me-up’ activity. The goal is not simply to learn how ***French*** works, and how patterns can be identified and applied, it’s also about enjoying working with ***French***, and to feel confident about doing so. The questions are ***differentiated***, and range in ***complexity and challenge***, with some calling specifically upon prior and new knowledge too, helping students make links and build bridges in their learning. There may be some vocabulary that students are not familiar with - these questions give them the opportunity to learn and apply new language too. Other ***grammatical concepts*** are addressed in the questions too, such as ***gender agreement***, ***direct and indirect objects***, ***personal pronouns*** and ***question formats in French***. The ***question card template*** available in some sets enables students to ***apply their knowledge practically and creatively***, which is an essential element to successful language learning. To get the most from the questions, I frequently look at the ***multiple-choice questions*** as a whole-group, identifying not only why there is a single correct response, but what the errors are in the other choices. ***Identifying errors***, and explaining precisely why something is inaccurate or incorrect, helps students to think about language a little more laterally, and ensures that they are thinking concepts through, rather than simply relying on learned responses. All sets have full answer keys and recording sheets. **1: FRENCH NUMBERS 0-21 : 36 DIFFERENTIATED CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-numbers-0-21-challenge-cards-11843713](http://) **2: FRENCH NUMBERS 0-31 : 48 DIFFERENTIATED CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-numbers-0-31-challenge-cards-11759386](http://) **3: FRENCH CHRISTMAS NUMBERS 0-31 : 36 DIFFERENTIATED CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-christmas-numbers-0-31-challenge-cards-12035663](http://) **4: FRENCH NUMBERS 0-100 : 48 DIFFERENTIATED CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-numbers-0-100-challenge-cards-11741540](http://) **5: FRENCH DATES, DAYS, MONTHS, SEASONS : 36 DIFFERENTIATED CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-dates-days-months-seasons-challenge-cards-11856578](http://) **6: FRENCH FRUITS : 36 DIFFERENTIATED CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-fruits-challenge-cards-12586825](http://) **7: FRENCH VEGETABLES : 36 DIFFERENTIATED CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-vegetables-challenge-cards-12587115](http://) **8: FRENCH FRUITS & VEGETABLES : 36 DIFFERENTIATED CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-fruits-and-vegetables-challenge-cards-12587126](http://) **9: FRENCH TELLING THE TIME O'CLOCK & HALF PAST THE HOUR : 60 CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-telling-time-challenge-cards-1-12833553](http://) **10: FRENCH TELLING THE TIME QUARTER TO & QUARTER PAST THE HOUR : 60 CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-telling-time-challenge-cards-2-12833561](http://) **11: FRENCH TELLING TIME RANGE OF ANALOGUE CLOCK TIMES : 60 CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-telling-time-challenge-cards-3-12833565](http://) **12: FRENCH ER VERBS PRESENT TENSE : 48 DIFFERENTIATED CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-er-verbs-present-tense-challenge-cards-12641881](http://) **13: FRENCH RE VERBS PRESENT TENSE : 48 DIFFERENTIATED CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-re-verbs-present-tense-challenge-cards-12646092](http://) ***Have a browse in my store for more French resources, including special offer bundles and freebies.*** **MERCI BEAUCOUP ET BON APPRENTISSAGE !**
