French - Holidays translation worksheet

(0)
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.
