I am a French native speaker, really enthusiastic about teaching my language and sharing resources. I spent all my childhood in France. I moved to England eight years ago to do a Masters in Education and Modern Foreign Languages. I then did my teacher training (PGCE) in Modern Foreign languages, at King's College, in London and was in charge of the French department in a London private school for many years. I now teach and work as a Housemistress in a British school, in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

I gathered all the grammar I teach from Year 7 to Year 11 into one single power-point and revision booklet.
You can easily copy and paste the slides you need into your own power-point presentation!
Students find it very helpful to have everything in one place with activities to practise and most importantly the activities enable them to work out the grammar points themselves before being given the detailed explanation.
There is a "work out the grammar point" activity for each point studied, a detailed and clear grammar explanation with plenty of examples and one or several translation exercises/mini-whiteboard activities/written tasks for each grammar point. There are challenge activities for each grammar point too.
224 SLIDES OF GRAMMAR!! {EDITABLE} + a 224 pages printable student booklet to go with the power-point!!!

Slide 21 : porter+noun/negative form (2)
Slide 24 : il y a/il n’y a pas
Slide 27 : on peut/au/à la
Slide 30 : pouvoir/vouloir
Slide 32 : imperative
