GCSE FRENCH: French Trivia Game

GCSE FRENCH: French Trivia Game

(0)
This 90 question trivia game is loads of fun for an end of the year or semester game, a back to school activity, a sub plan or use trivia for bell ringer and icebreaker activities. Though his product was created for French classes, it will work for any high school class since the questions are based on general knowledge and not only French related information. I’ve included several different versions (see full details below) including French only and French and English as well as powerpoint versions which will allow you to project the game and play as a class. This trivia game is great fun as a French club activity. This resource includes: 90 trivia cards - French only with answers 90 trivia cards - French only without answers 90 trivia cards - French only without answers - Powerpoint version 90 trivia cards - French and English with answers 90 trivia cards - French and English without answers 90 trivia cards - French and English without answers - Powerpoint version Each trivia question is assigned a point value (the easiest are worth 1 point and the most difficult are worth 9 points). There are a number of ways you can play this game. Here are some of the ways I like to use this game: 1. Have students play in small groups of at least 3. One student calls the questions and verifies the answers. Students keep track of their score and in the end the one with the most points wins. 2. Project the powerpoint version of the game and have students write their answers and points scored on a numbered sheet of paper. You could easily allow students to work in small groups so that they can help each other out. In the end, the group with the most points wins. 3. Classic Jeopardy: Draw the game board which is composed of boxes with points in them on the classroom's whiteboard or project it from a computer. Group students into teams. The game starts when the teacher chooses the first easy box that teams need to answer. Once the first box has been answered, the team that answered correctly can choose the next question. They can choose the hardest questions if they want additional points or they can opt for easier ones for lower amounts of points. For the final round, also known as DOUBLE JEOPARDY the points double. The game ends when all the questions on the board game have been answered and the team with the highest score wins.

La Nourriture - French 20 questions game - No prep speaking activity The game of 20 questions is a fun and effective way to practice forming French questions and in this version of the game, students can practice using partitive articles with 52 nouns which are all food and drinks. The food and drink vocabulary used in this game is the same that I’ve included in my set of 75 cards to practice French partitive, definite, and indefinite articles. These two resources are great to use together. This game work for any level as it is written in French and English. Want a real challenge for your upper levels or immersion students? Use the French only version! Included: 1 version with vocabulary written in French and English 1 version with vocabulary written in French only** Have students work in small groups of 2-4 or project the game and use it as a whole class activity. This game includes 52 words. Many of the words may be new to your students as this game is meant not only to practice forming questions, but also to build vocabulary. I like to allow my students to look at the game chart while they play until they’re somewhat familiar with the words. After they’ve played the games a few times looking at the French-English version they feel more prepared to move on to the French only version. One student in the small group or class chooses a word on the chart. Other students ask up to 20 questions trying to guess the secret word. The student who has chosen the secret word can answer using the following responses: OUI - NON - PARFOIS - RAREMENT - GÉNÉRALEMENT - PEUT-ÊTRE - CELA DÉPEND - PROBABLEMENT Alternative game play: To change up the game and to make it more challenging as well as practicing other skills, have the student who chooses the secret word describe it to others in the group. Instead of asking questions about the secret word, other students listen to the description and guess it.

Free French School Menu #1 Have a look at what’s on the menu at my kids’ school in France. Cheese every day!! I’ll be adding more menus weekly as I receive them. There are so many things a French teacher could do with these in class. It would be a fun cultural study to look up images of some of these menu items to show students what they look like and if they eat anything similar at their schools or homes. This could lead to a discussion on the length of time French students typically have to eat and rest as compared to students and teachers in your school.

L'heure - Telling Time in French - 12 & 24 Hour - J'ai . . . Qui a - BUNDLE

2 Resources
L’heure - Telling Time in French - 12 & 24 Hour - J’ai . . . Qui a Games - BUNDLE J’ai . . . Qui a games are a fun, quick, and easy way to have your beginner students review and practice telling time in French. This bundle is 20% off and includes games using 12 and 24 hour clocks. Each activity includes 21 cards. Depending on class size you can give each student more than one card or have them play in smaller groups. I recommend printing out and laminating these cards if possible so that you can use them over and over again. The 12 hour clock set includes plenty of opportunities to use the following vocabulary: et demie, et quart, moins le quart, midi, minuit, moins vingt, etc. See the list of times used for the 12 hour and 24 hour clock games below or check out the previews to have a sneak peak at all of the cards. How it works: Once each student has a card (or cards), the one who has the card that says Je commence le jeu begins the activity. He says, for example, Je commence le jeu. Qui a 3h30? The person who has the card with J’ai 3h30 on it says, J’ai 3h30. Qui a 7h15? And so the game goes on until the last card is called and that student’s card will say, J’ai _____. Le jeu est terminé! Another idea is to prepare two sets of cards, divide your class into two groups and let each group have a go to see which team can get through the entire deck of cards the fastest. It’s a very engaging and fun activity! Included: 21 black and white cards - 4 per page - 12 hour clock 21 black and white cards - 4 per page - 24 hour clock Times used for the 12 hour clock: 3h30 7h15 12h00 - midi 9h17 6h20 4h00 8h25 2h15 5h35 10h10 3h08 5h30 2h45 11h53 6h10 8h22 12h00 - minuit 7h45 1h40 4h55 Times used for the 24 hour clock: 13h30 17h15 12h00 19h17 16h20 14h00 18h25 12h15 15h35 20h10 19h08 20h30 21h45 23h53 16h10 18h22 0h00 17h45 21h40 14h55

L’heure - French Telling Time Board Game - 24 Hour Clock This French board game for telling time using a 24 hour clock includes 37 numbered boxes. The first player to reach box 37 wins. There are a few tricks along the way, so getting to the end isn’t always so easy! All boxes require students to say the numerical time aloud in French. Lots of repetition will really help your students get used to saying the time. Instructions on the game board remind them NOT to use vocabulary such as: et demie, et quart, moins le quart, moins vingt (etc), midi, et minuit with a 24 hour clock. In groups of two to four, players take turns rolling a die to move their pieces forward. Spaces are numbered to keep track of which way they’re moving. There are some spaces with special instructions: Départ - Start Avance de 5 cases - Move forward 5 spaces Recule de 5 cases - Move backward 5 spaces Rejoue - Play again Tu perds ton tour - Lose a turn Fin - End For an extra challenge and to extend playing time, you can tell your students that they have to land directly on the last square and answer it correctly to win. This resource includes the following: ➯ 1 page printable game board Not included: ➯ 1 die per group ➯ Game tokens, 1 per player
