This Connect 4 game practises the simple future of both regular and irregular verbs in French. Pupils work in two teams (red and blue) and their objective is to get 4 (or 3, if you prefer) of their coloured rectangles in a row. This can be vertically, horizontally or diagonally. In presentation mode, click on the relevant coloured circle to change the colour of the rectangle.

Use the template to get pupils to guess the blanked out word in the headline. You could also use this HIGNFY template to do ‘reading images’.

You could use it to give pupils options of headlines or give them a headline and they have to choose the appropriate image.

Use this PPT to introduce the students to the facts about the French language. On the following slides, students identify the slowly-revealed flags from either general knowledge or even football knowledge!

Teach pupils how to use the modal verbs in French - pouvoir, devoir and vouloir. The presentation shows the conjugated verbs to start with and then asks pupils to test their memory by asking them to match the correct verb to the pronoun. Then, they must remember how to spell the verbs. At the end, they must translate the sentences from English into French.

This PPT introduces pupils to arguably the two most important verbs in the French language.

Students choose a number and have to make a sentence with the word shown. Depending upon ability, they could make new sentences with the following words chosen, or they could try to make a story with the following words.

Good for revision for speaking exams. Pupils can do this in pairs. In advance, choose the topics or sub-topics. Their partner decides if their answer is good enough. If so, they colour in the segment in the relevant colour. If not, they discuss why and may try again. This is just one of many possible activities.

Introduce school rules using this PPT. After introducing the rules, using 'il faut' and 'il est interdit de', students try to remember which of these to use for each rule.

On the topic of 'saying where it hurts', pupils select the 6 correct answers – focus is on the grammar (j'ai mal au genou, etc). They reveal either a tick or a cross when they click on their answer.

Pupils work in teams. One person from Team A chooses a topic and a value. Click on the corresponding shape and this reveals a clue to the word or phrase that is the answer. If they get it correct, they get those points. If they get it wrong, it passes to the opposite team. Give them a time limit in which to answer. Clues could be, “this noun is masculine”, “this phrase is in the perfect tense”, etc.

Use this to practise asking questions. In presentation mode, your answers will show in each square. Challenge pupils to work out what the question could be. I award one point for any relevant question they come up with and 2 points if they correctly guess the question I came up with. Simply clicking on the square with your answer reveals your question.

In 2 teams, pupils compete to move from one side of the board to the other, translating the weather phrases (any language). Simply click on the hexagon and then click on the team's colour to change the colour of the hexagon.

Use this PPT to introduce different household chores in French. Full instructions are in the notes section of the PPT.

Pupils use an example text to translate (and sometimes adapt) the given English text into the target language. In this case, pupils have to translate the underlined words/phrases as one (e.g. ‘during the holidays’ is a phrase either found in the text exactly or very similar). After being marked by the teacher, pupils then set a target before re-writing it. Whilst marking, simply write your literacy code in the boxes (for higher ability) or put the code on the pupils’ answers as well (for extra help). There are additional boxes for WWW, EBI and a post-marking re-write.

This PPT introduces the idea of using 'gern', 'lieber' and 'am liebsten' to talk about what you like doing in your free time. It also looks at the word order - pupils then put the words in order to make a phrase.

To begin with, pupils match the definition from Wikipedia to the appropriate sport on the screen. At the end of the presentation, there is a random score team game to practise the vocab.

This resource practises questions, sports and developing answers.

Great for building both confidence and the use of spoken/written phrases. In 2 teams, each one takes it in turns to choose a rectangle. Team 1 chooses a noun from the first row and has to give a phrase using that noun (e.g. J’ai un chien.) It’s best to note down what they say. Then team 2 chooses an adjective from the second row and has to repeat what Team 1 said and add more to the phrase using an adjective (e.g. J’ai un chien blanc.) Then Team 1 chooses a connective from row 3, etc. Jot down one point for each correct phrase. This continues until one of the teams either gives an incorrect phrase or can’t think of one. The opposite team get the total points. Start again if you like, using the nouns, etc that haven’t been used.

Use this PPT to introduce and practise French letter/letter string pronunciation. The first slide introduces each letter/letter string with an example, then there is a Kim's Game-style game to practise pronunciation. Finally, play Connect 4 with pupils using the given words. Instructions are in the notes section of the PPT.
