This PPT introduces pupils to vocab about changing the planet (e.g. ‘I’m going to do charity work’). To start with, pupils identify what 3 texts are about using clues. Then, introduce the new vocab to pupils and then they fill in the gaps in the sentences and then match them to the English.

Use this PPT to introduce and explain time expressions and their corresponding tenses in French. On each slide, a phrase is given in French and pupils have to identify which tense it’s in. Then, they look at the time phrase and the tense in the sentence. Ideal for looking at translation in exams.

French - Time expressions for tenses

(0)
Introduce pupils to different time phrases that refer to particular tenses (past, present & future), allowing them to show off their knowledge of tenses in a simple way. After introducing the time phrases, pupils must identify which tense must be used for each time phrase that appears on the board. They do this by stepping backwards (past), stomping (present) and stepping forwards (future).

French - Tenses starter activity

(0)
This PPT is on a timer, so pupils must be on their toes! When pupils read a past tense phrase, they must either point backwards or step backwards (depending on the size of the class/classroom!). For the present tense, they either stomp or point down. For the future tense, they must either point in front of them or take a step forwards.
French - Prepositions
TheMFLTeacherTheMFLTeacher

French - Prepositions

(0)
This PPT introduces pupils to prepositions in French, using Where’s Wally? Pupils must find Wally first. After he’s been found, introduce the preposition. At the end of the presentation, pupils must then match the French preposition to the English.

TheMFLTeacherTheMFLTeacher

French - Perfect tense writing wheel

Give each pupil a handout of these slides, as well as going through how it works. Working from the centre circle, pupils choose options and add extra detail to produce a paragraph in the perfect tense.
French - Modal verbs
TheMFLTeacherTheMFLTeacher

French - Modal verbs

(0)
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.
French - Simple future & conditional tenses
TheMFLTeacherTheMFLTeacher

French - Simple future & conditional tenses

(0)
Use this PPT to introduce pupils to both the simple future and the conditional in French. As they are quite similar, it seems sensible to introduce them both together. This is really better suited to higher ability pupils.
