2 versions of this board game:
Game 1 is all in the first person
Game 2 is a range of pronouns
Answers included.
Bright and attractive. Educational. Great for collaboration. A fun twist in revision.
Good extension task- why not print them off and stick them in a plastic wallet on the wall for pupils to come and play when finished main activity.
Minimal prep: If you forget to bring dice pupils can play with a coin: move forward 2 spaces for heads, 1 space for tails. They can use a tiny scrap of paper for a counter.
A board game to practise vocabulary for Easter.
Pupils roll the dice and say the French for the picture they land on. Extra challenge given as they progress through the game and have to describe the pictures and give opinions.
Great lead on from my Easter PowerPoint.
Great speaking and listening practice.
Increased enthusiasm and engagement.
Adds dimension of competition.
Could be used as a reward for early finishes.

A fact sheet which comes in 3 different fonts (just print off your fave) and a blank version for pupils to fill in ) either from memory or they could research their own facts.

a Christmas gift worksheet
a Christmas themed grammar sheet
A really simple but engaging video animation featuring basic Spanish to recap previous learning.
A worksheet to accompany this video is available here https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/spanish-first-lesson-back-todo-sobre-mi-sheet-11969691
This is a link to my You Tube channel where you will find a whiteboard animation video. This is great to use in class with the pupils- can they translate te sentences quicker than the pen? They could write them down or say them out loud?
A fabulous task to set as revision as well- pupils more inclined to watch a you tube video to music (I have great stats evidence for previous year’s videos - by analysing the demographics I know that thousands of pupils watched my video in the week before the French exams!)
More topics on the way. There is a bundle of activities for this topic here https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/gcse-french-role-play-task-at-the-hotel-11874119
These 'all on one page' learning mats go beyond the standard vocabulary you might find in a textbook or PowerPoint presentation.
The language is authentic, up-to- date and relevant including phrases such as hair extensions, false eyelashes, man bun as well as the usual basic stuff.
Use as a speaking frame / a writing frame / a learning mat / a revision aid / an extension tool.
The PDF is in colour but looks nice printed in greyscale as well. I usually print and photocopy in greyscale but put the colour version on the IWB.

Could give out as an extension tool for early finishers. Give them out upon arrival and give them a time frame. At the end of the timeframe pupils go head to head in a 'bidding war'. Each pupil says how many they can translate and have to prove it. The highest bidder goes first- if he can get to his bid he wins, if he can't the next bidder goes and has to get to his highest bid to win.
