KS2 / KS3 Beginners French Vocabulary Basics Revision Games: 5 fun printable gameboards, with differentiation, for Snakes and Ladders (Serpents et Echelles). These activities were originally designed for French beginners and near beginners in Primary (Year 4, 5 and 6) and Year 7 and 8 and equivalents. They work well as a fun revision speaking task, perhaps at the start of term or end of term, or to use as early finisher activities. Any words not managed could perhaps be looked up online or in a French dictionary. If you are using them with a larger group you might want to print in A3. Answer and instruction cards are included in the PDF file.

 
My FSL / MFL French basics resources and units suit students beginning French, near beginners (and intermediate learners for revision) in:

  • Upper Primary (Key Stage 2) - Year 4, 5, 6 (Y4 Y5 Y6)
  • Secondary (Key Stage 3) - especially Year 7 and 8 (Y7 / Y8)
  • Equivalents such as Grades 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 Core French in Canada
  • May suit others, depending on experience

 

  • Boards 1 and 2 feature French words to be translated into English
  • Boards 3 and 4 feature English words to be translated into French
  • Board 5 is for lower ability students and features pictures and multiple choice answers.

 
This activity would suit a range of age groups, depending on their level of French experience. Most of the words come from these topics:

  • calendar (le calendrier) - days (les jours de la semaine), months (les mois), dates etc.

  • numbers (les nombres / les numeros)

  • introductions and greetings

  • weather (la meteo / le temps)

  • classroom objects (les objets de la classe)

  • colours (les couleurs)

All printable, with answer keys where relevant. **SNAKES AND LADDERS:** Beginners French Speaking Games: 5 printable gameboards, with differentiation, for Snakes and Ladders (Serpents et Echelles) to practise basic French vocabulary orally. Any clues not managed could perhaps be looked up online or in a French dictionary. It's fine in A4 but if you are using it with a larger group you might want to print in A3. **Answer and instruction cards**are included. Boards 1 and 2 feature French words to be translated into English, while boards 3 and 4 feature English words to be translated into French. Board 5 is for lower ability pupils and features pictures and multiple choice answers. Most vocabulary comes from these topics: * calendar (le calendrier) - days (les jours de la semaine), months (les mois), dates etc. * numbers (les nombres / les numeros) * introductions and greetings * weather (la meteo / le temps) * classroom objects (les objets de la classe) * colours (les couleurs) **GIANT FRENCH BASICS CROSSWORD:** Beginners French vocabulary writing revision activity for French Numbers (Les Nombres / Les Numeros), Calendar (Days, Months, Dates - Les Jours, Les Mois, La Date), Greetings and Introductions, Colours (Les Couleurs), Weather (La Meteo / Le Temps), Classroom Objects (Les Objets de la Classe) and more. A large (about 100 clues) crossword puzzle, ideal for group work, with children perhaps competing against other groups to solve the puzzle as fast as possible. In addition to the Crossword Solution, there is also an alphabetical list of answers which you can give out to pupils for support where necessary. It's fine in A4 but if you are using it with a larger group you might want to print in A3. **FRENCH GREETINGS AND INTRODUCTIONS GAMES:** Beginners French Speaking Games for this key area. A board game and vocabulary card for fun practice of basic French greetings (les salutations), farewells and introductions (Je me presente / Introducing myself), six 10-card loop games and a jigsaw puzzle. Instructions for all activities are included. With the board game, students take turns to roll a dice and move the appropriate number of spaces. They have to say aloud in French the word, phrase or question they land on, otherwise they return to the space they came from. 3 versions are included (with minor changes around nationality and country to suit different locations). The vocabulary card can be provided for support where required. There are also six 10-card loop games, which are coloured differently. If printing in black and white use different coloured card to help keep them separate. Designed for oral practice in small groups, with a student reading out the English word or phrase on their card and others checking if they have the French translation, then reading this out - and so on until the loop is completed. In each loop you can start at any point. With the jigsaw puzzle, print, laminate and cut out the 16 triangular pieces. Students match key French vocabulary with English translations to build a larger triangle. For previews and further information, please see the individual resources. I have some other French resources you might be interested in, available individually or in a variety of bundles to suit different needs. **[French Greetings and Introductions ](https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-greetings-introductions-bundle-11634405)** **[French Numbers](https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-numbers-and-mental-maths-bigger-bundle-11562862)** **[French Calendar ](https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-days-months-and-dates-bundle-11590711)** **[French Classroom Objects](https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-classroom-objects-bundle-les-objets-de-la-classe-11617471)** **[French Food and Drink](https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-food-and-drink-bundle-11753626)** **[French Family](https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-family-la-famille-bundle-11749209)** **[French Clothing](https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-clothing-les-vetements-bundle-12023907)** **[French Weather](https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-weather-la-meteo-11545153)** **[French Colours](https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-colours-les-couleurs-11630479)** **[French Revision](https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-revision-ks2-ks3-11920904)** **[KS2 / KS3 FRENCH MEGABUNDLE](https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/huge-french-basics-bundle-11634428)** For engaging, time-saving printables and presentations to help plan Primary Literacy, Maths and French lessons, visit **[FullShelf Resources](https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/FullShelf)**

Would have been 5 star but thought the title misleading. I'd expected a variety of games, rather than variations of one game: Snakes & Ladders.
