French Circling Activity - French pronouns and verbs in 3 tenses Research reveals that language learners need MANY repetitions of grammatical structures in order to truly acquire them. By using the circling method, familiarity with the word or phrase is done through repetitive questions circling around the target language. This particular activity is different to many French TPRS circling activities because it doesn’t tell a story. Instead, this activity focuses on French verbs, the pronouns LE - LA - LES - LUI - LEUR - Y - EN, possessive adjectives, and other less frequently used words that students will acquire through meaningful repetition. Each series of sentences is spoken in the present, passé composé, and futur proche tenses, and different forms of negation are included. Read on to see how you can easily differentiate this activity by using video, audio, and practice cards. Here’s how it works: I speak a sentence: Le chien ne veut pas de ses croquettes. Il n’en veut pas. I tell students to restate the sentence using a different subject pronoun: Les chats Students restate the sentence making necessary changes: Les chats ne veulent pas de leurs croquettes. Les chats n’en veulent pas. Included: Full length downloadable video circling activity - 362 slides - 53 minutes Practice cards for online use to work on reading and writing - 360 cards Step 1: Watch the video lesson / activity to learn about the circling method. Students will quickly catch on, and will truly need to concentrate so that they can make the necessary changes in their sentences. Do your students ever tell you that they can understand what’s being said, but can’t think fast enough to make the necessary changes when responding? That’s exactly why you should have them try out circling! Step 2: Use the set of cards to practice reading and writing. Read the cards that I have spoken in step 1, and have students take the time to write their responses before looking at the answer cards. As the cards are not numbered, I encourage you to download them and use them online rather than printing.
