This presentation was designed to enhance classroom practice of French regular verbs. The target conjugation is chosen from the drop-down menu, the ‘allons-y’ button generates a new verb and a button is clicked to spin the subject selector. Pupils then write down (on white boards preferably) the form of the verb that matches the subject. Teaching points or answers can be typed on the on-screen board. Work can be saved at the end if desired.
Any tense can be practised with this activity. The conjugations available via the drop down menu are -er verbs, -ir verbs, -re verbs, and -er verbs involving spelling changes.
In order for the interactive features to work, you will need to enable macros on your computer when prompted.

These four texts are retellings in modern English of traditional Chinese folk tales. One - the story of the Nian - is specifically about the origins of Chinese New Year traditions. The other three could be used at any time of the year. These have several common themes (money, religion, magic, kindness, and more which could be suggested by pupils themselves), and would make a good starting point for textual comparison or cross-curricular work (eg RE, citizenship).
The texts all come with a set of 10 questions which could be used for discussion in assembly, or for formal written comprehension in the classroom.
The folk tale format makes the texts accessible to a wide age range, including KS1, whereas the themes broached in many of the questions make them more suitable for able KS2 or KS3 classes.
This resource comprises 2 worksheets of 10 questions each. Each question consists of a sentence containing a pair of homophones which pupils have to fit in the correct place.
There are 20 different pairs altogether.
Good for revision and/or diagnostic testing in KS2 and 3 classes.

Beware of the cheat potential with this, however: the slide controls at the bottom om the screen enable the player to click through the slides without answering the questions!
