French Presentation: Family la famille
betsybelleteachbetsybelleteach

French Presentation: Family la famille

(2)
Slides 1-8: Introduce and practise vocabulary. You could also print these slides off to use as flashcard games or wall displays. Slide 9: All family members on one slide to consolidate followed by intro of possessive pronouns. Slide 10: Reading. Short paragraph of Juliette describing who is in her family. You could follow this up with question to your pupils ‘qui est dans ta famille?’ Pupils use Juliette’s paragraph as a model. Slide 11 Family tree. You could use this for Q&A. eg. ‘Comment s’appelle le père de Juliette?’ ‘Il s’appelle David’. Slide 12. Extra vocabulary. Taking pupils beyond the immediate family to include aunts and uncles, step-sisters etc. I find that it is too long-winded to teach this in a ‘drilling’ fashion so I would go through it as it is displayed in a table on the IWB and then print off as a reference sheet- particularly useful for pupils with large families. Slide 13. ‘Les mots volants’ game. This is a chance for pupils to participate and let off a bit of steam. As the words ‘fly’ onto the board they shout them out in English. I love doing this as a whole class as it really builds confidence and enthusiasm but you could shout an individual’s name out in between words or use lollipop sticks to pick a different pupil each time. Slide 14. ‘Qu’est-ce qui manque?’ game. I usually ask pupils to identify the word that has disappeared and tell me both the French and Englsih equivalent. You could still play as a whole class by letting the group call out the French word as it disappears and you following up with ‘and what does it mean?’ Slide 15. ‘Qui suis-je?’ Reading comprehension with famous families. Answers appear on the click. Slide 16. Listening grid. This is very simple because most of us have access to excellent listening material but it just gives you a quick to chance to assess aural comprehension at word level. Grt pupils to writr 1-6 on mini whiteboards or in books and you choose six of the words to say, they write down the corresponding letter. You could always increase the level of challenge by including the word in a short sentence. Slide 17. Noughts and crosses. You could use this as an exit game or as refresher the following lesson. Choose two individuals or play boys v girls. Or teacher v class.

French Fashion Design your own tshirt

Anybody with a class with difficult girls needs to buy this resource. I created this especially for my bottom set year 9 girls and it worked. Silence. Engagement. Enthusiasm! You will not regret this purchase. It is full of up to date language describing clothes that our pupils actually wear; the pupils were amazed at the 'cool' vocab lists with words like 'high tops' and 'playsuit'. The final outcome is a written paragraph about the t-shirt they have designed. At your discretion how they balance their time between sketching and producing written language! Vocabulary taught: T-shirt style (sleeve length, neckline, fit) T-shirt look (colour, pattern, slogan) Clothes to go with the t-shirt Accessories to go with it Advice on how to achieve 'the look' (using imperatives) Includes consolidation activities and comprehension. Printable worksheet slide included
Mon dictionnaire français My French dictionary

Mon dictionnaire français My French dictionary

(1)
A printable dictionary for your pupils to use as a reference but more importantly to add to throughout the year as they study new topics and encounter new words. Each page has a section where I have written common words including nouns, verbs and adjectives and a lined section for pupils to note their own additions. There are also reference pages for the following topics containing short glossaries of the essential words: greetings, days, months, seasons, colours, school equipment. There is a spare page at the back that you could print multiple times should they need more space. I recommend using treasury tags to hold the dictionary pages together. This will allow the pupils the possibility of adding extra sheets and adding revision sheets as they revise the vocabulary. If teachers request it, I will make this resource available in black and white but it looks great printed in greyscale

One Page Learning Mat: Numbers

One Page Learning Mat: Numbers

(0)
A fantastic support for all year groups. Would be good to have in a cardboard folder pinned to the wall for reference or enlarged and used as a poster. Print and laminate and use as a learning mat to boost confidence amongst new learners in the classroom. Great differentiation technique when dealing with mixed ability classes. Use it as a speaking frame / a writing frame / a learning mat / a revision aid / an extension tool. The PDF is in colour but looks nice printed in greyscale as well. I usually print and photocopy in greyscale but put the colour version on the IWB.

French Numbers Bundle

5 Resources
A collection of resources to teach numbers 1-20 in French including flashcrads, an interactive quiz, a word cloud, odd one out and one page learning mat. The one page learning mat is something that I think every classroom needs laminated 30 copies of for pupils to use regularly- it's great!
