A set of retrieval activities for Studio GCSE French Module 2
Can your students translate the sentences correctly without losing the balloons and causing the basket to fall? Each slide contains 10 questions. Students lose 1 balloon for an incorrect “yellow” response and 2 balloons for an incorrect “green” response. Click on the balloons to make them fly away!
Each slide corresponds to a double page spread from Module 2, including Point de Départ pages.
The following topics are covered:
Leisure activities
Films and going to the cinema
Talking about sport
Talking about using technology
Discussing reading habits and music
Talking about television programmes
Talking about a trip out with friends
Do your students need help to spot their own mistakes? Why not try the Past Tense Verb Auction?
Students start with 100 points.
They must decide if the 15 sentences are correct or incorrect.
They must bid points according to how certain they are of their decision. For example they could bid 100 points that the sentence is correct, or 50 points that it is incorrect
Each slide contains 6 built in timers so the teacher can decide how long the students have in order to place their bids.
If students guess correctly, they win double the points that they have bid. If they are wrong, the points are lost.
The winner is the person with most points at the end.
An easy, no prep way to build some retrieval skills and speaking practice in to your lessons.
