A list of greetings, including ‘bonjour’ and ‘comment t’appelles-tu?’ with random letters missing. Pupils fill in the gaps.

Use this PPT to introduce places in town in French. On the first slides, in two teams, students choose a square. Click on the square to reveal a part of the image underneath. Students decide to either guess the place in French or pass to the other team. If they guess correctly, they get a point. If they guess incorrectly, the other team get the point. This encourages students to use context and clues to work out the new vocab. Finish with a team game. Students choose a number and answer a question about places in town. If they guess correctly, click to reveal their score underneath.

Pupils use this writing to write about what they like or don't like to do in certain weather and why.

This presentation starts by comparing how many own their own houses in the UK and Germany. Then, using the German logic, looking at the vocab of rooms in the house. There is then a team game to practise the new vocab and, finally, a matching activity.

This is a whole lesson on different genres of music and how to give your opinion about the different genres. You will need access to the internet and speakers, as there is music for them to listen to in silence at the start and 3 different French singers/groups on YouTube (Louise Attaque, MC Solaar & Lilian Renaud). The accompanying worksheet is there to help pupils throughout the lesson.

Pupils must get 4 in a row to get a point for their team. Click on the relevant colour to make the shape change to that colour. 5 in a row could mean 2 points! This topic is clothes.

Introduce the well-known poem ‘L’Automne’ using the PPT and use the worksheet alongside it. The poem goes through the poem, using the words and images for certain parts of the poem to aid understanding. Pupils do gap-fill on the worksheet whilst listening and watching the presentation. By the end of the detailed presentation, pupils will be able to write their own version of the poem in French, using support.

Use the PPT to introduce family members in German. Print and copy the family tree from the presentation, so pupils can follow and make notes. Pupils then use the clues (e.g. my dad’s brother) to identify the family member.

Use this PPT to introduce pupils to adjectives to describe personality and then both masculine and feminine versions.

Give each pupil a handout of these slides, as well as going through how it works. Working from the centre circle, pupils choose options and add extra detail to produce a paragraph in the perfect tense.

Use this PPT to teach pupils how adjectives work in French. It includes regular and irregular endings, along with common adjectives that never change.

Teach pupils how to use -er verbs in French using this PPT.

Good for revision for speaking exams. Pupils can do this in pairs. In advance, choose the topics or sub-topics. Their partner decides if their answer is good enough. If so, they colour in the segment in the relevant colour. If not, they discuss why and may try again. This is just one of many possible activities.

A template for the gameshow 'Pointless', not a pointless template...

Use this PPT to introduce parts of the body (I've included a lot!). There's a simple introduction to parts of the body to begin with. Then discuss with them what techniques will they use to remember each word. Pupils always come up with some interesting ideas… As long as they work! Then, show the picture before the word to see what they remember. Afterwards, in pairs, pupils take it in turns to throw the dice and then use the clues to complete the sentence (e.g. 'On marche avec...'). Then, go through the grammar point to say where it hurts. Pupils then complete the matching worksheet. To finish, play Connect 4 as a class. Each team takes it in turns to choose a phrase to translate into French. If they’re right, click on the relevant coloured dot to change the colour of the box to their team’s colour. 1 point for 4 in a row and 2 points for 5 in a row.

Introduce school rules using this PPT. After introducing the rules, using 'il faut' and 'il est interdit de', students try to remember which of these to use for each rule.

Just like the Radio 4 show, the timer lasts for 1 minute. Get students to talk for one minute about a given topic in the TL.

Type in a word/phrase it the TL on one line and then the equivalent in English opposite it (as in the example). Do this within each inner section and then cut it up into cards. Pupils must then form a triangle with the cards by matching the TL to the English. Instructions are in the notes section of the PPT. It's worth Googling 'Tarsia puzzles'!
