This is adapted from an excellent handbook for Spanish AS students I found on the TES. I have used checklists and reference materials from other sources as well as my own work.

I have these printed A3 size and laminated and the students can refer to them when speaking in spontaneous debates in class. They have been very positive about them and far from slowing the pace, it enables them to keep talking!

Present tense of regular French er verbs

I cannot claim credit for the original as this is adapted from a Spanish Ppt on ar verbs. It is full of questions and includes vocabulary relevant to most able pupils in KS3 and KS4 and could serve as revision for 6th formers.

A worked example of ideas in response to a stimulus card on tattoos and physical appearance. I used it for revision on how to prepare answers for the speaking examination. Can be used as a brainstorm of ideas.

We laminate these and have them on every desk in the classroom. The feedback from our pupils is really positive and they have helped increase the amount of language used spontaneously in class.

Spanish -ar verbs conjugation card race - revision of all tenses

Spanish -ar verbs conjugation card race - revision of all tenses

This is another of my verb card races. You need to print off some sets of the cards, cut them out and laminate them. Pupils then race each other to pick up the cards to match what they see on the screen. I have mine move their cards to an answer board to stop them from copying others and then you can award points to whoever has the right cards on display. It encourages a good sense of competition, can be used again and again, and makes verb drills fun. (Requires knowledge of present, preterite, near future, future and imperfect tenses)
Irregular Present Tense Card Race

Irregular Present Tense Card Race

(6)
Print out several sets of the cards and laminate them. Pupils work in pairs or small groups and race against each other to form the present tense with the cards after reading from the PowerPoint. Good element of competition and really highlights how much (or little!) they actually know. Can be easily adapted to suit your requirements too.

Freizeit - talking about what you do in your free time

This is a lesson I prepared to review the German present tense on the theme of free time activities. It can be used to accompany the Echo courses. It begins with a brain teaser (in German of course) to practise word association. Then present tense phrases are introduced. You can show the vocabulary more than once before asking the class to practise their memory skills. There is a verb drill and a brief reminder of how to form the present tense. There are reading and speaking exercises. Mention is also made of stem changing verbs (lesen/fahren/sehen).
