Here's a guided worksheet to complete as you watch the movie. It focuses mainly on developing vocabulary and enhancing comprehension but can be supported by class discussion.

The level of difficulty is A2/B1, accessible for students who have been learning French for 2-3 years at least. It is a great opportunity for students to gain an insight into French culture.

This is a comprehensive worksheet based on a text describing table manners in France. It includes 1) vocabulary-building exercises (crockery and cutlery at a French table); 2) exercises on pronouns (what does this pronoun refer to? - typical exercise for IB French Paper 1); 3) looking at different ways to express polite advice - using the future tense, the imperative, the pronoun 'on', etc; 4) an exercise to develop an understanding of useful connectives and applying them to a summary of the text; 5) opportunities for a whole-class discussion based on what students have read and learnt from the text. This worksheet should be covered over a series of 2 to 3 lessons and can be followed up by the following written task: write a comprehensive table manners guide for a foreigner visiting your country. This is aimed at AS/A-level students, as well as IB French B (SL or HL) students. I have included a correction for all the exercises.

Le Petit Prince, Antoine de Saint Exupéry - Feuilles de travail

(1)
This is a series of activities to guide the reading of Le Petit Prince. Each worksheet goes in pairs: the students' sheet and the teacher's notes. The focus of these worksheets is to help students understand the book, but also to develop their vocabulary and ability to write creatively in French. There is some literary analysis of the text to give students the opportunity to transfer the skills developed in English. There are also a few grammar exercises, based on the text (irregular plural of nouns and adjectives, adjective agreements and pronouns). This represents 3 - 4 weeks worth of work with students. At the end, I chose to show them the animation movie which came out in July 2015. I created this resource for my Year 12 French B Higher Level group, but I have also used it (with modifications) with my Year 11 advanced IGCSE group.

They also provide opportunities for reading and writing exercises. These booklets can also be used as a teaching aid, revision aid or for cover work. Each booklet takes roughly 4-5 hours to complete, if done carefully. I have also included a speaking booklet for students to prepare for their speaking exams.
