French lesson on a zombie attack. Pupils imagibe they are under imminent threat of a zombie attack. They translate a list of 25 objects that they can choose from to take with them to imporve their chances of survival. Some of sensible surival choices such a torch or a map. Others are sentimental such as a teddy bear or Xbox. There are also choices to make them think such as a diary (not helpful to fight the zombies but good for mental wellbeing). They make their selections and write them up in French. You could follow this up with a short survival skills debate (in English). Also included are two descriptions of a male and female zombie they could use as a comprehension then a model to create their own zombie. Also a ‘mini me’ zombie description writing activity.
