French Vocabulary Booklet/Vocabulaire pour le Brevet

(1)
This is a very comprehensive and well structured vocabulary booklet for Junior Cert or Leaving Cert/GCSE French. It has 27 pages in total. All topics needed for the Junior Cert are covered (from days of the week, to food, directions, pastimes, animals etc…). Each unit of vocab is presented in a grid over one/two pages. The French words are written in in black and the English translations are written in in a different colour for each topic. Also includes a full page of useful verbs in the first person ‘je’ in the present, past and future tense. The key ‘je’ verbs for ordinary level French are highlighted but can of course, be amended. The booklet can be printed and put together to suit your preferences/class needs. This is a very easy and clear way of presenting or revising vocab and serves extremely helpful to the students. *For the same booklet, without the English translations, see ‘My Shop’.

Grand Corps Malade Study

(0)
Three worksheets based on 'Grand Corps Malade. First worksheet is a biography about him and his life. Questions here are in English (to be answered in English). This can be a starter activity to introduce students to the artist. Second Worksheet is based on his song ‘Je viens de la’ and is designed as a cloze test. It also has a short translation activity and a grammar activity too which can be assigned for homework. Third worksheet is adapted from an authentic source (French online newspaper) and questions are in French (to be answered in French). This can be differentiated by changing the questions to English/writing easier questions. Again, this can be done in class or for homework. The three worksheets are designed so that the students are progressively challenged , starting quite easy and finishing with difficult questions to be answered in the target language. I use this study as part of my TY module.
