Hnadout to introduce the subjunctive to 11th grade or 12th grade. The two practice exercizes at the end are linked to the environment, but can easily be adapted to whatever you are currently working on.

Work on 2 songs about friendship. The first one, 'Les Copains d'abord', by Brassens, is available on YouTube. The second, by Bénabar is harder to find on the net so I downloaded it. In this lesson, I worked in particular on familiar and colloquial language.

Les expressions idiomatiques

(2)
List of interesting idioms of more able students. They first need to work out the literal meaning of these phrases and then find out the meaning or an equivalent idiom in English. I matched this exercize to the topic Hobbies and Free Time, but of course it can go with any other topic.
L'Étranger, Albert Camus - Workbook

L'Étranger, Albert Camus - Workbook

(2)
I created this workbook when I studied L'Étranger with my Year 13 French B Higher Level class. The aim of this workbook is to provide a variety of activities to help students understand the novel, the style and philosophy of its author. There are comprehension exercises, writing tasks, grammar activities (use of tenses in the novel) and one interactive oral activity. It is geared towards French B Higher Level students, but could easily be used for A-level students. Working through this workbook would take 3 to 4 weeks.

Great game, to revise pretty much any topic! I used it to revise the past tense with 'avoir' and -ER verbs with my Year 8, but it can be adapted for any purpose. Switch off the lights, let the suspense penetrate the classroom and get the kids in a competitive mood! They'll love it...
