The questionnaires are compiled in a Word doc and the answers to each questionnaire are provided on a separate Word doc attached. Each document is fully editable.
I came up with this idea of video activities because GCSE textbooks never provide videos to illustrate a topic, and there very few GCSE videos online. My students found these useful to reinforce the vocab and very relevant to their French experience as the videos are authentic and show French speaking people in real life.
