Pupils work in pairs to get 4 in a row by giving one aspect from the y axis and one from the x axis. They must also try to block the other pupil. For example, if you’ve used personal pronouns and infinitives, they have to give ‘je regarde’ to get the corresponding square. Class version also available.

French - Daily routine translation lesson

(0)
This is a cultural lesson based on the vocab of daily routine. Pupils watch a YouTube video, comparing the daily routine of a girl in the USA with a girl in Haiti. They then use the worksheet to translate the texts about the girls’ daily routine into their books. They should cut out the relevant half of the sheet, stick it into their books and then translate underneath each one. Get pupils to do a rough draft first, to be copied up neatly into their books.

Entry or extra tasks

Hand out one card to each student as they enter the room. It doesn’t really matter who gets what. They have to complete the task after they’re settled (e.g. after writing the date, etc). In their books, they should write ‘My entry task today is number ___’. These could also be used as ‘extra’ tasks in the lesson. Tasks include ‘You are a translator for this lesson!’ and ‘Get a purple pen from the top drawer, check your book for errors and correct them.’
