This PPT teaches students how to say what food and drink they like or dislike.

Each student gets a card with French on it. They have to find the student who has the only other card that can go with theirs.

My students stick this sheet into their exercise books at the start of the year for reference throughout the year. It has literacy codes on it, along with some phrases to help the students speak spontaneously (they tally every time they use one of the phrases). Alongside the literacy codes used in students’ work, there are columns for me to tick each term, which means students have to focus on their weakest area (spelling, punctuation, etc.). The ‘STAC’ referred to on the sheet is an assessed piece of work done each term, but this can be deleted/edited as you please.

A sheet for students to stick into their exercise books for reference in lessons - simple everyday phrases in German.

I use this sheet either at the end of each half-term (after assessments) or at the start of the following half-term. Pupils fill in their self-assessment of their own progress over the half-term, including what they found most challenging and their personal targets for the following half-term.

As they enter the room, give pupils a random mood card. Whenever they speak in the target language, they must do so in the mood on the card. Other pupils then have to guess that mood. Just a different way to get them speaking in the target language!

I use this sheet either at the end of each half-term (after assessments) or at the start of the following half-term. Pupils fill in their self-assessment of their own progress over the half-term, including what they found most challenging and their personal targets for the following half-term.

I use this when marking a set of books or assessment. It’s useful for noting down any common issues, WWW or EBI ideas, extension ideas, positive praise to give, late work to chase up, etc.

I sometimes use letter shapes as a starter activity. Use the shapes on the sheet instead of the letters themselves. You could leave accents above letters as they are, or use the shapes for those as well.

Literally that! Tables of ‘aller’ and ‘faire’ in the present tense for students to stick in their books.

Ideal as a lesson starter or as an introduction to the German months. Pupils must simply put the months in the correct order. Months are then put in order one by one on the second slide.

Practise colours using this PPT, based on colours brain training. Going through each slide quickly, pupils must say the colour of the word, not the actual word.

Pupils work out the greetings phrases by cracking the code. They then put the 9 phrases into the logical order of a conversation.

Pupils simply fill in the missing vowels in the French months.

Pupils have a set of these cards in pairs and pick up a TV show card (image), an opinion card (emoji) and (for example) ‘je les trouve’ card, followed by ‘Par contre’ to make sentences. J’adore les dessins animés. Je les trouve très amusants. Par contre, je n’aime pas les documentaires. Je les trouve ennuyeux.

Pupils must read the descriptions of the four books, taken from Amazon.fr and then answer questions about them.

There are images of various clothes and pupils must raise the correct hand when you, as the teacher, says one of the articles of clothing in French. Instructions are in the notes section of the PPT.

Use this PPT to introduce the sounds that common animals make. Essentially, it’s a way of using and practising the sound-spelling patterns in French.

Introduce pupils to some common food sold at the ‘Imbissbude’ in Germany.

Pupils put the cards in the correct order. In the correct order, this is a conversation ordering food.
