This is a timed PowerPoint presentation featuring basic geographical information about France. It’s best suited as a starter activity that can be used with KS2 or KS3 (mainly Y7), either to introduce the basic geography of France or to revise a previous session. I have used it with Y6 and Y7 following a lesson where they had labelled their own map of France (the same map as is used in the presentation) as I wanted to see how much of the information they had retained. The pupils number 1-14 and write down vrai or faux for each slide as they watch the presentation. If you don’t like it, don’t use it. Negative comments such as too simple and very boring are hurtful when someone has taken the trouble to upload something that they have taken the time to create and are making it available for free. Especially when they have tried and tested it with several classes and so know it is useful and that it works. Surely a more constructive response would be to create your own resource, post it on the Resource Bank and give us all the link so that we can see how it should be done.
