French Christmas skits and reading comprehension exercise - Noël - Mini-dialogues This is a set of 6 French dialogues about Christmas between 2-4 people. Short skits or dialogues like these can be used in many ways during the weeks leading up to Christmas. Have students work in pairs or small groups to read through the skits and maybe even perform them for the class! These skits can also be used as an individual reading comprehension assessments. 14 reading comprehension questions are included with each skit. The skit can be printed on one side of a sheet of paper and the questions on the other for a really easy, NO PREP Christmas activity. The grammar level is intermediate. Most of the verbs are in the present or passé composé, and very few pronouns are used. Your students will learn a lot of new Christmas vocabulary, and they’re going to have a great time with this activity! Everything is written in French only.

French Pronoun 300 Practice Cards BUNDLE: Direct, Indirect, Y & EN This bundle is a set of 300 French pronoun practice cards. These cards are written in the present, futur proche, and passé composé tenses and do not include negation. There are 75 cards to practice using the French pronouns Y and EN in three different tenses. These practice cards will help students better understand when to use Y and EN in many different situations. It’s helpful to use this stack of cards when you’re really focusing on Y and EN. There are 75 cards to practice using French direct and indirect object pronouns in three different tenses. These practice cards focus on using: LE - LA - LES - LUI - LEUR. These practice cards will help students better understand when to use LE or LA to mean HIM or HER instead of LUI, and LES to mean THEM instead of LEUR. It’s nice to have a stack of cards that only deals with these five direct object pronouns. There is also a stack of 150 cards in which all of the cards from the 2 previous stacks are mixed up, and there’s no indication whether students should use LUI - LEUR - LE - LA - LES - Y - EN. This is a real challenge, and it’s fantastic for test review. Each card indicates a subject pronoun, verb in the infinitive form, and another word or words to complete the sentence. Students first form a sentence using the elements provided, then they restate the sentence using either LUI - LEUR - LE - LA - LES - Y - EN. A four page answer key is provided. I recommend printing them on the front and back side of two sheets of paper so that you can easily distribute them to students for them to check their own work. This is an activity that students can work on alone or in pairs or small groups. My students really like to do this activity with a partner. One student says the sentence without the pronoun, then the other one says it with the pronoun. They take turns going back and forth. EXAMPLES: PRÉSENT - JE - ALLER - LA FAC Je vais à la fac. J’y vais. PASSÉ COMPOSÉ - TU - FAIRE - DU PIANO Tu as fait du piano. Tu en as fait. FUTUR PROCHE - ON - PARLER - DE NOËL On va parler de Noël. On va en parler. PRÉSENT - JE - PARLER - MARIE Je parle à Maris. Je lui parle. PASSÉ COMPOSÉ - TU - MANGER - PIZZA Tu as mangé la pizza. Tu l’as mangée. FUTUR PROCHE - VOUS - FINIR - DEVOIRS Vous allez finir vos devoirs. Vous allez les finir.

**Full year French writing program - 50 French writing activities - Écriture sans préparation ** This whole year French writing program will have your students writing every day. Each of the fifty writing activities in this program includes five pre-writing and writing activities for Monday through Friday. These writing prompts are a great way both to introduce and to review writing. Provide each student with a “paragraphe de la semaine” folder and have them add to it every day as you give them daily assignments. At the end of the week have them turn in their folders. On Monday, you can start over again with a new theme. This paragraphe de la semaine writing resource contains 50 weeks worth of Monday through Friday prewriting and writing activities. Use these weekly no prep writing activities with many different levels whether you teach primary immersion, primary core, or traditional middle and high school. You can easily modify the activities for older students. The themed prompts are suitable for any age.

This will have them beginning to think about the writing theme for the week and is their first pre-writing assignment. Kids love drawing, and the pictures they draw will later serve as inspiration! ✍Mardi: Mon livret de vocabulaire - Each student receives a booklet to help them explore the vocabulary related to the week’s writing theme. The front page includes the writing prompt of the week and an image. The second page includes over 80 frequently used French words. Page three lists 12 words that go along with the theme of the week, and the back page has space for ten words that students have either thought of on their own or looked up in the dictionary. The booklet is a simple one page printable that you can either fold in advance or have students do it on their own. Kids write their name on the front cover and you could have them color it. ✍Mercredi: Vocabulaire - Students go back to their vocabulary booklets from Tuesday and choose ten words that they will include in their rough draft. The words they choose can be a combination of words they have chosen and themed vocabulary that was already written in the booklet. They then write down the chosen words on their vocabulary page that says “ Mots de vocabulaire utiles: J’utiliserai ces mots dans mon paragraphe.” ✍Jeudi: Mon brouillon - Students write a rough draft of their paragraph using the vocabulary words selected on Wednesday. The brouillon page includes a 5 point checklist at the top for students to evaluate their work for themselves before writing the final copy on Friday. This will motivate students to look over their work and make corrections. ✍Vendredi: Ma copie propre - The fifth and final step in this writing program is to write the final copy. Students should feel very confident in writing about this week’s theme by now. At the top of the final copy page they’ll see the writing prompt and question words that they can ask themselves while writing: qui - quoi - quand - où - pourquoi - comment Ways you can use this writing program: ✎ Enhance your writing program by practicing a little every day. ✎ Use the prompts at writing centers Monday - Friday. ✎ Daily 5 rotations ✎ Homework ✎ Writing centers ✎ Fast finishers ✎ Tutoring sessions ✎ No prep sub materials ✎ Morning work ✎ Project on whiteboard for a whole class speaking activity
