In pairs, pupils roll a dice to carry out the plenary tasks you have entered on the slide. To make it more challenging, pupils must change one detail in the phrase.

Give the students a gap-fill text with 10 gaps in it (A to I). Of course, this can be more or fewer gaps – just remember to adjust the A to I in the table. In each gap in the text, write a letter (A to I). Along the corresponding row in the table, give 6 alternatives to go in that gap. Pupils then choose one by rolling a dice. When the student reaches the gap, they roll a dice and say/write the corresponding word.

Fill each slide with a question. Pupils choose a question number and teacher clicks on the number to take them to that question.

This is a translation lesson (from French into English) based on the lives of two different children of the same age in Haiti and the United States. The PPT includes a starter activity based on connectives and then looks at where both countries are and then to the two different texts to translate. The worksheet is the two texts. I get my students to write a rough translation on rough paper before copying their final version into their books, along with a copy of the French texts and each flag.

Cut the paragraph up on card (it's already spaced out for this) and pupils work in pairs to put the text into a logical order.

This handout accompanies the PPT introducing the simple future to students, including of course verb endings, but also the most common irregular simple future verbs.

Pupils correct the adjective endings, where necessary. The sentences describe teachers, so of course change the names!

Get pupils to stick this reference sheet into their books and learning about and practising the perfect tense in French. It includes a list of the past participles of the most common verbs.

This PPT introduces the possessive pronouns 'my' and 'your' in French.

Class dominoes is a great way to get the whole class involved and to keep their attention! Full instructions are in the document.

Say an item in the bedroom at random in the target language and pupils raise their left hands if there’s a blue ‘L’ underneath the picture, their right hands if there’s a green ‘R’ underneath the picture and both hands if there’s a red ‘L&R’ underneath the picture.

Use this resource to practise talking about TV. Using the grid at the top of the page, pupils change certain details in the conversation, depending on what number is rolled on their dice.

Type words or a couple of words into each white box underneath the letters. This could be a text or a sequence of numbers, letters, etc. Get the pupils on their feet. As you read through each box, they should raise their Left, Right or Both hands appropriately. You could get them to read with you, get another pupil to read instead of you or maybe even read it increasingly quickly.

For pairwork activities. Full instructions are on the document, but the basic idea is that pupils try to guess each element of a phrase or short paragraph in a limited amount of attempts.

I’ve used this for A level French, as a starter, discussing the different viewpoints of de Gaulle and Pétain during the occupation of France in WW2. It’s the ideal way to get pupils moving and to wake them up! In the above example, I had a picture of de Gaulle for the left hand and Pétain for the right. Students had to then read the clue and decide who it referred to.

Choose eleven phrases. Pupils take it in turns in groups, or as a class, to say the phrases in order. If they say one phrase, the sequence of people speaking continues as normal. If a pupils says two phrases, the order changes direction so the person before them says the next phrase(s). If a pupils says three phrases, the next person is missed. This PPT allows you to display both the chosen phrases and a reminder of the instructions.

Pupils get a copy of page 1. The second page has both the teacher's notes and the weather symbols to cut out and give to pupils for the activity. Read out the weather for certain areas of Germany and pupils put the weather symbols onto the correct place on the map.

This is an easy PPT template for you to adapt as you like. Change the side and top title bars, depending on the topic you’re doing. Click on the blue boxes to make them disappear to reveal (or not!) an explosion underneath. For variation, simply move the explosions to different squares.

This is a short PPT to introduce pupils to how to greet others in France, including what to say at what time of day and the culture of kissing.

There are reminders on this PPT of how to form the perfect tense and the future tense, designed for a ‘quick-look’reminder’ display.
