Perfect introduction to my other resources on greetings and initial questions and responses including One page Learning Mat, Follow me Cards, Word Cloud, Odd one-out and A flow chart quiz.
An easy activity to set up which will keep pupils engaged and enthused.
Print off the 2 board games plus answer sheets.
Give dice and counters (could be scrap of paper with pupils initials).
Pupils play with answer sheet freeing you up to lead another activity or intervene to support.
2 versions: easy questions and harder questions.
A game board to practise nouns and simple sentences. Great to introduce food in a novel way- give them the board game and a dictionary and it is a really fun way to challenge them to learn food and drink nouns.
Use it as follow up once you have introduced the voacb as it is an excellent way of practising speaking and listening skills.
Other important features: pupil independence, pupil collaboration, challenge and competition. I always have 100% engagement when I give them a board game (I have others available).
A rewarding way to differentiate- what better incentive to complete the task than to know you can play a game at the end!
No need to cut anything- just print. A4 is fine, A3 is great. Add dice and counters. (I get pupils to use spare coins for counters and lots of them have dice roll app on their phones these days if you are struggling for these).
Any feedback is always gratefully received and if you have any requests for future board games please send me a message.

French lesson on a zombie attack.
Pupils imagibe they are under imminent threat of a zombie attack.
They translate a list of 25 objects that they can choose from to take with them to imporve their chances of survival. Some of sensible surival choices such a torch or a map. Others are sentimental such as a teddy bear or Xbox. There are also choices to make them think such as a diary (not helpful to fight the zombies but good for mental wellbeing).
They make their selections and write them up in French. You could follow this up with a short survival skills debate (in English).
Also included are two descriptions of a male and female zombie they could use as a comprehension then a model to create their own zombie.
Also a ‘mini me’ zombie description writing activity.

Distribute hearts to all pupils and they have to find their matching heart.
Game 1 is matching names eg. Tu es Barack Obama, trouve Michelle. (Other half = Tu es Michelle).
Game 2 is matching places eg. Tu veux visiter New York. (Other half = Tu habites a New York).
Game 3 is matching hobbies eg. Tu aimes faire du sport. (Other half = tu es sportif).
Game 4 is matching food eg. Tu aimes la cuisine italienne. (Other half = tu aimes la pizza).
There are 16 matching pairs (32 halves) in each game but if your class is bigger i have included spare hearts for you to add your own. If your class is smaller simply leave some pairs out. The hearts are backed in colour for differentiation (tell pupils their matching half shares the same background colour.) Or print on in black and white to increase challenge.
Make it more romantic by playing French love songs in the background as they circulate and only stop when the music pauses. Or tell them it is like speed dating and they need to find their matching heart before the music stops. Reward pupils for any French interaction you hear as they circulate the room.

An interactive quiz- excellent starter, plenary or revision tool.
The master slide has 12 question numbers to choose from; each question takes them to a multiple choice slide with a choice of 3 answers.
If they select the incorrect answer they will be sent to a 'oh non!' slide and can click on a funny 'oh no' sound. They keep going until they get the answer correct.
If they select the correct answer they are sent to a 'très bien' slide and the powerpoint returns to the master slide.

You could print off the blank version and watch the video while they make notes on whiteboards then fill in their own doodle sheet.

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.
