I wrote this resource to complement the AQA French Oxford coursebook but it could be used in conjunction with other GCSE coursebooks.
It is based on the theme of ‘Ma famille et mes amis’ and comprises 5 well differentiated translation worksheets. Each worksheet begins with vocabulary practice followed by revision of key grammar (adjectival agreement, comparative and superlative adjectives, reflexive verbs in the present tense and negatives) and ends with a short text to translate from memory into French. The powerpoint provides the answers to the 5 translation tasks.
This resource would ideally be used after ‘Ma famille et mes amis (part 1)’ which gives a more in-depth treatment of grammatical points. However, for more able students, it could be used on its own.
I wrote this resource to complement the AQA French Oxford coursebook but it could be used in conjunction with other GCSE coursebooks.
It is based on the theme of ‘Ma famille et mes amis’ and comprises 4 worksheets and 4 powerpoints.
The worksheets provide practice in:
adjectival agreement
comparative adjectives : plus … que, moins … que, aussi … que
superlative adjectives
reflexive verbs in the present tense
negatives: ne … pas, ne … jamais, ne … plus
The varied exercises have been well structured and differentiated to guide students through the challenges of French grammar and, hopefully, help them achieve a higher degree of accuracy in their writing and speaking.
The 4 powerpoints include most of the worksheet exercises with answers, making it possible for you to demonstrate grammatical points, discuss pronunciation and mark work in class with your students.
A nice powerpoint to demonstrate and practise direct object pronouns with your students. I do this grammar point when covering the theme ‘Relationships with family and friends: Ma famille et mes amis’.
There is a worksheet for students to write their answers to slides 4 and 5.
This bundle of resources will keep your GCSE students very busy, helping them to acquire the vocabulary and grammar and to develop the key language skills needed to describe relationships with friends and say what makes a best friend.
This 11 page resource is based on pp. 10/11 of Studio AQA GCSE French Foundation, A comme amitié. It is well differentiated and will help your students acquire the vocabulary and grammar to describe what makes a good friend: C’est quoi un bon ami, pour toi?
The resource includes exercises to practise:
adjectives and adjectival agreement
infinitives and regular ER verbs in the present tense
forming questions
possessive adjectives

A crossword puzzle with clues in French provides extra reading comprehension practice.
Most of the worksheets are also on ppt., making it easier for you to demonstrate grammar, sentence structure and pronunciation to your students.
This resource is particularly suitable for students of average to higher ability.
AQA; Theme 2 - 8.1 - Holidays and Travel
Students read an account of a holiday in Paris and complete a range of tasks which will help them remember the key vocabulary, verbs and structures to write their own account of a past holiday. There is a ‘nous’ and an ‘on’ version for each set of tasks.
Ideal for helping your GCSE students prepare for their writing exam and the translation task into and from French.
This resource is based on p.10 of Studio AQA GCSE French Foundation, A comme amitié. It comprises 3 worksheets where students can practise regular ER verbs in the present tense, translate from and into French and acquire the key vocabulary to help them describe what they do with their friends.

I decided to use the transcript of AQA GCSE French Foundation Tier Paper 1 Listening (May 2018) to create this reading paper. I plan to give the reading paper to my GCSE students early in the year and then set the listening paper on which it is based a few months later. I have made very slight changes to the transcript.
I wonder if this will help improve their listening skills. I suppose it is worth a try.
The 6 page paper can be copied double sided onto 3 pages to save on photocopying. It is out of 60 marks like the actual GCSE Foundation Tier Reading Paper.
The paper also appears on ppt. so that you can discuss the answers with your students.
