Resources to plan a French Jobs and Careers, Occupations or World of Work (Les Emplois / Le Travail) unit. This BUNDLE contains a 112-slide interactive presentation (with teaching points, vocabulary, interactive review games, and quiz), flashcards, worksheets, puzzles, fun printable games and activities, to teach the names of 39 jobs, linked sentences and phrases, such as how to talk about what jobs people have and what jobs you would like to do in the future. There’s enough for multiple lessons to teach and review vocabulary, phrases, and sentences through speaking, reading and writing activities, and there’s differentiation too.
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 KS2) - Year 4, 5, 6 (Y4 Y5 Y6)
- Secondary (Key Stage 3 KS3) - 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
Please check the previews.
All resources are in PDF, apart from the presentation, which is PowerPoint (but it is also included in PDF).
This BUNDLE includes these 3 packs, which can be purchased separately if you prefer:

French Jobs Games and Activities
PRESENTATION AND FLASHCARDS:
In addition to introducing key vocabulary and phrases, this presentation includes activities such as:
- Sentence translation activities
- 3 short reading comprehensions
- 5 rounds of an interactive Hexagons Game (where teams compete to translate topic vocabulary and phrases and make a path through the grid)
- 10-rounds of an interactive Hangman Spelling Game, where teams compete to discover and correctly spell French words linked to the topic
- 20-round multiple-choice translation quiz
Please note that almost all the text in the PowerPoint is editable, however the other content of the slides is not.
Many slides in the original PowerPoint version feature answers that appear when you click, for students to respond. An additional PDF version is included. While the PDF version does not retain the ability for teachers to reveal answers by clicking, it will still help you introduce and review this topic if you do not have PowerPoint where you work. Please note that the Hexagons and Hangman games game are not compatible with PDF and are therefore omitted from that version. The multiple-choice quiz is included in the PDF, however it is not interactive in this version.
Also within the Zip file is a PDF of flash cards for a core range of 21 jobs (masculine and feminine versions) with two on each page.
WORKSHEETS AND PUZZLES:
- Vocabulary pages: There’s a word mat (over 2 pages) of French words with images for a core range of 21 jobs, together with a one-page list of these 21 jobs, and an expanded list with an additional 18 jobs. French job names are given for masculine and feminine versions where applicable. There’s also a table of key questions and sentences. These pages can also be used as prompts for classroom speaking activities. Please note that these vocabulary pages are also contained in my Les Métiers Games and Activities pack.
- 7 worksheets, all differentiated two ways using a star system. The one-star version is the least challenging, for lower ability, younger or less experienced students. Includes jumbled words, translation tasks, fill the blanks tasks and a short reading comprehension.
- 3 puzzles - There’s a grid puzzle, word hunt puzzle and hidden word puzzle. The first two puzzles are differentiated, with the first letter given for each word in the word hunt puzzle and some letters already entered into the easier grid puzzle.
- Full answer keys
GAMES AND ACTIVITIES:
- Sentences Board Game: 2 different game boards, where students say aloud in French the translations of the sentences they land on. Board 1 features only the core 21 jobs; board 2 features the expanded range. Print and laminate boards for repeated use. Answer keys included.
- “J’ai…Qui a…?” Loop Game: A speaking game for groups or the whole class. Print and laminate for repeated use. The 21 cards (featuring the smaller list of jobs) form a continuous loop so it doesn’t matter which one you start with.
- Serpents et Echelles Game: Print and laminate for repeated use. Students say aloud the jobs in French when they land on them. Includes jobs from the expanded list.
- “Quel est votre travail?” Active Oral Game: Card sets included with formal “votre” and informal “ton”. Print and laminate the cards you want to use. 36 cards in the set. Students have one card each and must move around the room, asking “Quel est votre travail?”, aiming to meet the person with the matching store card. Students must reply in French, using the image on their card.
- Mime Game: A team game, where students mime jobs to make their team mates guess correctly in French.
- Full game instructions included and answer keys too where relevant.
