There are 12 question cards, labelled A-L, so that you can use them together with the full set, answer key and recording sheet.
The 36 challenge cards set is here (£3):
FRENCH DATES DAYS MONTHS SEASONS : 36 DIFFERENTIATED CHALLENGE CARDS
https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-dates-days-months-seasons-task-cards-12247683
The cards are useful not only when you’re focusing on this particular target vocabulary group, but also as an all-year-round starter, plenary and general ‘pick-me-up’ activity, as the goal is not simply to learn how these words and phrases in French, but also to enjoy working with French, and to feel confident about doing so.
The questions are entirely in French, with some translation questions both from French into English, and***English into French***. It’s important to help students understand as soon as possible that translation does not mean simply exchanging word for word, and that languages do work in different ways to express the same things.
This free set comprises the following non-editable files:
12 differentiated question cards, 4 per A4 (8.5 x 11) paper - this size allows for longer and more complex sentences or calculations in a font that is sufficiently large for students at this stage of their introduction to Italian to access the language easily and successfully, which is a really important motivator for learning. Laminating is definitely worth the prep time and extra expense, as the cards will last in great condition for absolutely years.

FRENCH RESOURCE BOX #1
**FRENCH RESOURCE BOX : FIVE RESOURCES @ £2.00 EACH** ***Files are non-editable in zipped formats. They are copyright, all rights reserved. They may not be copied, rewritten, amended, shared or distributed outside your own classroom in any way, The license for purchase is a single-user license only. Please read the Terms of Use carefully.*** ***This French resource box is ideal for KS3 French, KS4 French and GCSE French revision***. There are 5 resources, each for £2, featuring ***active, differentiated, multi-skill and independent learning activities***. Some of the resources overlap learning stages, though I’ve found that students, regardless of ages, often benefit from, and genuinely enjoy, working with activities that are primarily designed for other ability or knowledge stages. This may be either as ***practice and revision***, or as ***additional or more accessible and manageable challenge***. These factors are all key to motivating learners to engage with, and progress in, a new language. There’s certainly prep work involved with some of the resources – I always laminate my language and challenge cards for example, as they’re much more easy to manipulate, and so far more learner-friendly. They do however last in excellent condition for years, so for me, laminating is definitely worth the prep time and extra expense. You don’t have to prepare them all at once – the resources are definitely useful for the longer-term, so you can take your time with the prep, focusing on what you’re working with at any specific stage. Over time, I’ve created activity folders with ready-made resources in, and give my students free-choice time – alone, in pairs or small groups. They decide what they’d like to work on for half an hour or so, and sometimes even a full lesson. We do this pretty regularly, as it’s great for keeping language fresh, and ideal for both ***consolidation and revision***. Additionally, and equally importantly, it helps students ***develop independent learning skills***, moving away from teacher-led learning, and ***gives them real insight into their own learning progress***. The workbooks, worksheets and word searches for example are good to go – simply print and photocopy. **RESOURCE 1** ***500 High-Frequency French Verbs Reference Book***, alphabetically French-English & English-French ideal for intermediate French preparing to move into advanced French students, and I also use them for advanced beginner French students to provide a language learning map. ***Read the full outline here:*** **500 HIGH-FREQUENCY FRENCH VERBS : REFERENCE BOOK FRENCH-ENGLISH & ENGLISH-FRENCH** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-verbs-book-1-12775401](http://) **RESOURCE 2** ***French Dates, Days, Months, Seasons Challenge Cards*** 36 differentiated challenge cards focusing on dates, days, months & seasons in French, with answer key, vocabulary list & recording sheet.
