French Teaching Resources School Buildings and Facilities PowerPoints and Worksheet.

The first slide encourages the students to actively engage with the new vocabulary: working in teams, using their prior knowledge, knowledge of other languages and using a process of elimination to figure out the meanings. They then discuss the pronunciation and question each other before the teacher checks with the whole class.
Mon école est vieille/ moderne.
C’est une école mixte.
Il y a 2500 élèves.
Il y a soixante salles.
Il y a une bibliothèque.
Il y a une cantine.
Il y a un centre sportif.
Il y a dix labos.
Il y a un terrain de sport.
Il y a douze salles d’informatique.

The next slides have the phrase and a picture. Use this to elicit the pronunciation, the English and to drill.
The next section of slides have “either **** or ****?” questions.
Then there are "what's missing?" slides.

The final slide has pictures of all the phrases. This can be used for a Beat the Teacher game, which the students love! The teacher points to a picture and says a word. If it is the correct word the students all repeat it. If its the wrong word the students must stay absolutely silent. If they do, they win 1 point. If not, the teacher gets 1 point. Most points wins!

The worksheet have a French to English match up of the new expressions. This is followed by a gap-fill where the words needed to fill in the gaps are jumbled up in brackets after the gaps (except for the school name). E.g.
Mon école ____________ (aes’plple) __________________________. C’est une _________ (iieellv) école mixte près du centre-ville. ______ (y il a) environ deux mille cinq cents ________ (éèlevs)
Then there is a further gap-fill which covers related topics about favourite subject, the school day etc.E.g.
Some : Remplissez les blancs:
L’école commence à ____________ (ithu hseeur) et demie. Chaque cours dure ______ (nue) heure. J’apprends treize ____________ (esmèrtia). J’adore ________ (sanlg’lai) car c’est ______ (rstè) intéressant, mais nous avons beaucoup de _________ (irdeovs).
