*NEW EXTRA: I have added a fruit PowerPoint to bring more value to the resource. *
Pupils race against the clock and each other to find the meaning of 22 fruits. Task 1: work on your won to find as many of the words as you can in the allocated time (teacher to set classroom timer and provide dictionaries). Task 2: work with a partner to share answers in the allocated time. Task 3: circulate the classroom and exchange words with others in an attempt to fill in the blanks (at this point I offer my own services and offer one exchange with each pupil- they have usually left the trickier ones to the end and might need you to support in this way in order to translate all 22). Most are fruit, some are liquids- enabling them to create a simple but delicious fruit smoothie. Task 4: select 5 ingredients for a fruit smoothie (you could reward the winner).
Great for developing dictionary skills; increasing vocabulary; encouraging pupil interaction and using language creatively.
3 sheets are provided- 2 in colour (a pink version and a blue version) and 1 in black and white.
Three European Day of Languages resources included in this bundle: a board game, a flag colouring activity and a video about diversity with French quotes and 5 colouring sheets about cultures around the world. The sheets are in English as well as French to sue in tutor time or any workshop.
There is an extra resource thrown in- an animal quiz- nobody has ever bought it but I love it and it will be useful to G&T pupils next half term.
Amended to correct several mistakes. Please download the corrected versions if you have already purchased.
Then you can email me at betsybelleteachesfrench@hotmail.com and I will send you a free resource by way of apology.

A fantastic support for the first few lessons. Print and laminate and use as a learning mat to boost confidence amongst new learners in the classroom. Great differentiation technique when dealing with mixed ability classes.
Use it as a speaking frame / a writing frame / a learning mat / a revision aid / an extension tool.
The PDF is in colour but looks nice printed in greyscale as well. I usually print and photocopy in greyscale but put the colour version on the IWB.
All the vocabulary for teaching the rooms in the house and getting pupils to describe their house on one A4 page: use it as a learning mat, a homework sheet, a support sheet, an extension sheet, a revision sheet, a classroom poster...endless possibilities.
Also included: mini word clouds activity
Mini word clouds- excellent starter activity. Great for revision as well.
Could give out as an extension tool for early finishers. Give them out upon arrival and give them a time frame. At the end of the timeframe pupils go head to head in a 'bidding war'. Each pupil says how many they can translate and have to prove it. The highest bidder goes first- if he can get to his bid he wins, if he can't the next bidder goes and has to get to his highest bid to win.
All the vocabulary you need on one A4 page for teaching directions: use it as a learning mat, a homework sheet, a support sheet, an extension sheet, a revision sheet, a classroom poster...endless possibilities.

A simple story with 9 paper puppets for pupils to cut out, colour and label.
Pupils cut out, label and glue the puppets (option for teacher to use pre-coloured or black and white templates)
Teacher reads the story.
Pupils listen and each time they hear a character they place them on the scenery mat.
The story tells them exactly where to position each paper puppet but the PowerPoint acts as a visual support if hey need it.
Options to differentiate- suggestions given.

6 colouring sheets, items in the pictures are labelled in French for pupils to colour accordingly.
3 Halloween scenes, 3 autumn scenes.
£2 is the cheapest can sell a product- however I will add some more sheets to this product for Bonfire night so please return and download the updated version at no extra cost in the coming weeks.
Interactive Quiz to test pupils on their understanding of greetings and simple questions and answers. Multiple choice answers, if they select the correct answer they are taken to a ‘tres bien’ slide, incorrectly they are taken to an ‘oh non’ slide and given a chance to choose again.
It is great for a whole class quiz (you say the options and they pop hands up), or to out one pupil in the spotlight/hot seat or as a physical tap and go activity where they line up and make their selection then go to the back of the line. You could use a classroom timer to inject extra challenge and competition.
