This presentation gives a thorough explanation of how to form the present participle in French in a way to convey that two actions are happening at the same time. This would be ideal for students who are studying IGCSE French, A-Level French and adults who are simply studying french for the first time or revision.

Here is a presentation for learning members of the family. It is also good for consolidating possessive words and also gender which is why all the words have been highlighted in either blue or pink. This is suitable for teaching Key Stage 2 French as there is a story with true/false questions which consolidates what the children have learnt. Enjoy!

Expressions which use 'avoir' as opposed to 'etre' according to the English equivalent can be confusing for learners of French as a foreign language. This worksheet provides an exhaustive list of such expressions, followed by step by step activities which pushes students to their potential. This is a lower level version where students are asked to translate short sentences. This activity would be ideal for students studying the IGCSE / A-Level / IB programme.

Although learning numbers are relatively easy in Chinese, it doesn't hurt to give your students a fundamental level of teaching and learning.

The level of this booklet is geared towards gifted and talented students or students whose native tongue is Cantonese or whether they speak Mandarin at home but cannot read or write in simplified form.

This is an activity designed for children in their first year of learning Mandarin Chinese. Writing activity 1: Write and repeat several times each month of the year in character form. They can also colour in the pictures. Writing activity 2: Children read the example when forming dates and then they try to write the dates themselves in the subsequent activity. They may need several more examples before attempting this activity independently. Reading comprehension: Children will need to have already mastered members of the family and learn to say where they live in Mandarin Chinese when correcting the incorrect information in this activity Wordsearch activity: Children look for the months of the year in English in the wordsearch and then cross out the corresponding month in the list in Chinese
