**FRENCH RESOURCE BOX : FIVE RESOURCES @ £2.00 EACH** ***The resource consists of non-editable files in a zipped format. It is copyright, all rights reserved. It may not be copied, rewritten, shared or distributed outside your own classroom in any way, The license for purchase is a single-user license only. Please read the Terms of Use carefully.*** ***This French resource box is ideal for KS3 French, KS4 French and GCSE French revision***. There are 5 resources, each for £2, featuring ***active, differentiated, multi-skill and independent learning activities***. Some of the resources overlap learning stages, though I’ve found that students, regardless of ages, often benefit from, and genuinely enjoy, working with activities that are primarily designed for other ability or knowledge stages. This may be either as ***practice and revision***, or as ***additional or more accessible and manageable challenge***. These factors are all key to motivating learners to engage with, and progress in, a new language. There’s certainly prep work involved with some of the resources – I always laminate my language and challenge cards for example, as they’re much more easy to manipulate, and so far more learner-friendly. They do however last in excellent condition for years, so for me, laminating is definitely worth the prep time and extra expense. You don’t have to prepare them all at once – the resources are definitely useful for the longer-term, so you can take your time with the prep, focusing on what you’re working with at any specific stage. Over time, I’ve created activity folders with ready-made resources in, and give my students free-choice time – alone, in pairs or small groups. They decide what they’d like to work on for half an hour or so, and sometimes even a full lesson. We do this pretty regularly, as it’s great for keeping language fresh, and ideal for both ***consolidation and revision***. Additionally, and equally importantly, it helps students ***develop independent learning skills***, moving away from teacher-led learning, and ***gives them real insight into their own learning progress***. The workbooks, worksheets and word searches for example are good to go – simply print and photocopy. ***Resource 1*** ***100 French conversation starters*** This set of French conversation starters features ***100 starters in question format***, suitable for ***advanced beginner French*** students who are moving into ***intermediate French***. Speaking is a language skill that learners tend to find very challenging, and increased engagement with language that requires them to both reproduce language they are already familiar with, and to be creative with that language in order to produce new language is ***integral to successful language learning***. ***Read the full outline here:*** **100 FRENCH CONVERSATION STARTERS FOR ADVANCED BEGINNER FRENCH INTO INTERMEDIATE FRENCH** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-conversation-starters-1-12849020](http://) ***Resource 2*** ***French Numbers 0-100 Ten differentiated word searches with answer keys*** Word searches are a fabulous way of encouraging learners to engage with the written word, practicing and reinforcing language as they complete the grids. This set features ten differentiated word searches, focusing on ***French Numbers 0-100***, with each consecutive grid increasing in challenge. The searches offer a really useful learning opportunity - enabling learners to engage with the target vocabulary, but also aligning with cross-curricular learning - working on reading, writing, spelling, numeracy and ***French language skills*** in general. ***Read the full outline here:*** **FRENCH NUMBERS 0-100 : 10 DIFFERENTIATED WORD SEARCHES WITH ANSWER KEYS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-numbers-0-100-word-searches-12837271](http://) ***Resource 3*** ***French-speaking countries flags, label & colour worksheets*** provide great learning opportunities for any appropriate age group, at any time of the school year, and are definitely the perfect activity for consolidating knowledge of these countries and flags - students definitely really enjoy testing their memory and colouring the flags. There are ***four sets of worksheets***, each with four pages, with an accompanying 2-page reference list of all countries, capital cities and flags. ***Read the full outline here:*** **FRENCH-SPEAKING COUNTRIES FLAGS LABEL & COLOUR WORKSHEETS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-speaking-countries-flags-label-and-colour-12565188](http://) ***Resource 4*** ***French telling the time challenge cards range of analogue clock times*** These 60 challenge cards are perfect for ***developing French language skills*** in general, as well as for ***practising and revising how to tell the time in French***. There are 60 cards, divided into two sets of 30 questions, full answer key and a recording sheet. The cards have a ***bonus multi-skill focus on listening, speaking, pronunciation, reading and spelling***, and really help students develop more independence in their learning, moving away from more teacher-led tasks and activities. ***Read the full outline here:*** **FRENCH TELLING TIME : 60 CHALLENGE CARDS FOCUSING ON A RANGE OF ANALOGUE CLOCK TIMES** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-telling-time-challenge-cards-3-12833565](http://) ***Resource 5*** ***French -IR & -OIR verbs imperfect tense conjugation practice*** My students really like this kind of grammar activity, as they like to work and learn independently, which is a successful way of varying teaching and learning methodologies - I've found it's really important to avoid predominantly teacher-led learning in the languages classroom. There are 150 conjugations across 3 differentiated conjugation challenges with answer key & verb lists. ***Read the full outline here:*** **FRENCH -IR & -OIR VERBS IMPERFECT TENSE CONJUGATION PRACTICE WORKBOOK** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-ir-verbs-imperfect-tense-12744394](http://) ***Have a browse in my store for more French resources, including special offer bundles and freebies.*** **MERCI BEAUCOUP ET BON APPRENTISSAGE !**
