French - 'How to improve your work'

French - 'How to improve your work'

(0)
My students stick this sheet into their exercise books at the start of the year for reference throughout the year. It has literacy codes on it, along with some phrases to help the students speak spontaneously (they tally every time they use one of the phrases). Alongside the literacy codes used in students’ work, there are columns for me to tick each term, which means students have to focus on their weakest area (spelling, punctuation, etc.). The ‘STAC’ referred to on the sheet is an assessed piece of work done each term, but this can be deleted/edited as you please.
French - Progress review sheet

French - Progress review sheet

I use this sheet either at the end of each half-term (after assessments) or at the start of the following half-term. Pupils fill in their self-assessment of their own progress over the half-term, including what they found most challenging and their personal targets for the following half-term.
Mood cards

Mood cards

As they enter the room, give pupils a random mood card. Whenever they speak in the target language, they must do so in the mood on the card. Other pupils then have to guess that mood. Just a different way to get them speaking in the target language!

I use this when marking a set of books or assessment. It’s useful for noting down any common issues, WWW or EBI ideas, extension ideas, positive praise to give, late work to chase up, etc.

German - Put the months in order

(0)
Ideal as a lesson starter or as an introduction to the German months. Pupils must simply put the months in the correct order. Months are then put in order one by one on the second slide.

French - TV opinions card sort

(0)
Pupils have a set of these cards in pairs and pick up a TV show card (image), an opinion card (emoji) and (for example) ‘je les trouve’ card, followed by ‘Par contre’ to make sentences. J’adore les dessins animés. Je les trouve très amusants. Par contre, je n’aime pas les documentaires. Je les trouve ennuyeux.

There are images of various clothes and pupils must raise the correct hand when you, as the teacher, says one of the articles of clothing in French. Instructions are in the notes section of the PPT.

French - Animal sounds

Use this PPT to introduce the sounds that common animals make. Essentially, it’s a way of using and practising the sound-spelling patterns in French.
