Tour de France vocabulary tracker

This tracker sheet is to be stuck at the front of students books. Students use this to record their learning homework vocabulary marks. If students pass all six tests in the term then they are able to colour in the Tour de France vest for that term. Students love this and it is really clear to see that Homework is being set and marks are being recorded.

Dicey dialogues - introductions in French

I often make these sheets to support students in practicing key questions and answers. The students practice the conversation repeatedly with a partner for a set number of minutes. When they reach a number in the dialogue and an underlined word they roll the dice and substitute in one from the list below that matches the number that has been rolled.

Jean Pierre Bond et la Francophonie - Le Monde ne suffit pas!

(0)
Jean Pierre Bond must save the day again! The Bond criminals are plotting to steal the Mona Lisa! The criminals live in the French speaking world. Jean Pierre Bond must find them and work with other secret agents to stop them. Lesson 1 language - Naming French speaking countries Lesson 1 culture- Where are these countries? what are they like ? Lesson 2 language - types of houses and rooms in a house - designing a safe house. Lesson 2 culture -Flags of the French speaking countries and les Jeux de la Francophonie. Lesson 3 language - Preparing for an assessment on everything learnt so far. Lesson 3 Culture - the SOE and links to BOND - pictures have been removed but i have referenced the sources. This is a project that I made some years ago around 2009 to motivate boys especially to enjoy French more. I updated it last year and included some cultural based lessons too as there were many non specialists that taught French in my department last year. Please note that on the map reading task in week 2 I have left the information but deleted the maps. The lessons are based around teaching - countries and where I live, types of houses and rooms in the house. I am currently updating the second part of the lessons that include time, numbers and activities such as watching TV. These will be available soon.
