Edexcel GCSE photocard revision French- Work, Future plans and Jobs

(0)
I made these planning sheets to try and encourage students to answer the bullet points at foundation tier with more spontaneity and to try and prevent students being reliant on full sentences (not allowed to be written on the CN2 form). My students have found these really useful as the pointers in English have helped them to answer the questions quicker, to say more and to be more accurate. I hope that you all find them useful too.

Ordering drinks - board game

Ordering drinks - board game

(0)
This board game is for KS3 and or GCSE. The game is best played by the teacher setting a time limit. Students travel round the board and have to complete various translation activities of either ordering drinks or saying the part of the waiter/waitress by landing on squares and collecting cards for a correct translation. It is a fantastic activity to help to build confidence and so that students can master key phrases and drinks vocabulary. It also contains some simple opinions too. I would advise that you print the waiter cards on one colour and the customer cards on another. At the end of the time limit students count up their cards and the student with the most is the winner. The vocabulary needed for this game includes phrases such as: Je voudrais Je vais prendre Mon ami voudrait C’est combien? C’est tout? A mon avis C’est vraiment

Describing a picture board game - New speaking exam and foundation writing

(0)
This is a board game that I made to encourage students at KS4 to use the present tense to describe a picture where in English we would use the present continuous. It is based on the 80s board game Home You Go. Students can work in pairs/fours to play the game. Each team will need a dice and six counters each. Students may need to have some understanding of the formation of the present tense first or be well drilled in key verbs. The game also contains other useful photo card language too. The activity lasts between 10 -15 minutes.
