French Teaching Resources. Matching Cards: Conjunctions + The Subjunctive & Emotions Dominoes

I use these English - French matching cards to revise key conjunctions which take the Subjunctive.

Expressions on cards:

Pour que/ afin que/ de façon que/ de manière que/ de sorte que
À moins que…ne
À condition que/ Pourvu que
Avant que…ne
En attendant que/ jusqu’à ce que
Bien que/ quoique
Non que
Ce n’est pas que
De crainte que…ne…
De peur que…ne…
Sans que

You may choose to have different levels of challenge. For example,

Level 1 = match the cards and discuss the pronunciation.

Level 2 = match the cards , discuss the pronunciation and then have quick fire questions from French to English, whereby 1 student closes their eyes and their partner reads out the French cards which the student must translate into English from memory.

Level 3 = As Level 2 but the quick fire questions are from English to French.

Following checking there are 2 fun games to play, either pelmenism or slap the card.

I use these English - French dominoes to revise expressions of emotion and the subjunctive.
