Conditional tense test (topic: volunteering)

A clear test set out in 5 sections; conditional endings, regular verbs, irregular verbs, translate sentences into English, translate sentences into French. Could use the first page as a diagnostic with sixth formers before teaching the conditional. Vocab in the translations is from the topic of volunteering. Answer sheet also given so that you can display it on screen for swap and mark or for them to fill in correct answers, learn it and then do a retest.
Spanish using the internet

Spanish using the internet

(0)
An easy sheet with basic vocabulary to express what you do on the internet and how often. Start by filling in the English for some vocabulary then fill in the Spanish. There is a sentence builder which I use to do a few dictation activities (ie I say a sentence out loud and they use the sentence builder to write it down) then the students translate some sentences into English using the sentence builder. Next the students use the sentence builder to translate sentences into Spanish. As a follow up I ask students to write a para about their own internet use.

Great for homework, cover, or just to get the students doing someting quiet for 10 minutes that they can do. Not a pretty worksheet but effective.
Spanish easy speaking and writing on chores with opinions

Spanish easy speaking and writing on chores with opinions

(0)
Two guided Spanish sentence builders: one chores and the frequency you do them, the second on opinions of chores using modals. English sentences to translate orally and in writing. A basic writing strip to follow so the students can write a short paragraph. I go through the sentence builder - I read some sentences that they can write or orally translate. Students work in pairs or small groups to take it in turns to say the sentences out loud. I usually follow this by getting students to write down some of the sentences. Finally they can construct a short paragraph using the writing strip (could be next lesson as a starter?) to help them.

Spanish supported writing on house

Spanish supported writing on house

(0)
This is a Spanish worksheet for low ability students to help them write an accurate paragraph about where they live. Firstly there are two model paragraphs that are translated. Students spot the mistakes and highlight them. Then students highlight the useful parts of the model paragraph. Finally they copy the bits they highlighted and (hopefully) insert their own answers. Once they have a good paragraph I suggest they copy it into the outline of a house (easily found online), colour it and that makes a nice display, a little village of paragraphs.
Test on present tense of vouloir

Test on present tense of vouloir

(0)
Mark out of 10 2 versions on the sheet. This is my way of discouraging cheating. I give the tests out alternately so the people sat next to each other have the questions in a different order. I don’t tell students this, I just do it. I collect for marking.

Spanish worksheet on topic of describing friends
madcatladymadcatlady

Spanish worksheet on topic of describing friends

(0)
Easy Spanish worksheet to support students writing a short paragraph describing a friend, including desde hace and a description. Starts with vocabulary to fill in then works on sentences on the first sheet. On the second sheet there is an example paragraph with a gapped translation and phrases to find which will support students in writing their own version. This scaffolded sheet should support students to work from words up to a paragraph with minimal teacher input so could be used for cover, homework or simply for when you need students to be able to work independently in class. I made the sheet for my Foundation GCSE class (who need support and don’t like too much challenge) but it could be used with confident near beginners too.

French GCSE speaking and writing about holidays

French GCSE speaking and writing about holidays

(0)
Three worksheets I use to get GCSE French students speaking and then writing about past holidays oral translation sheet: students use the example to take it in turns (in pairs or threes?) orally translating sentences using the example to help. The sentences start very simple and add a bit each time to get harder. I follow this up by asking them to do a written translation of about 5 of them. trapdoor activity: pair work. Each student selects ONE of the options (in secret) and takes it in turns to read the paragraph to their friend guessing each time which option their friend has chosen in a sentence. Their turn finishes when they make a mistake. Of course this means they will read the sentences a lot of times! spot the difference: several similar but slightly different paragraphs about a holiday. Highlight differences, pick out what they mean then write your own similar one.

Worksheet going from vocabulary to sentences to writing a 90 or 150 word piece about social problems for GCSE French. Starts with focussing on the topic vocab (French to English, the English to French). Then moves to translating sentences into English and similar sentences into French. A sentence builder to make sentences that will be useful in the writing. There is an example 90 word answer with gapped translation and word find activity. Finally students write their own 90 word piece using what they have learnt and can move on to 150 words.

Revision booklet for Allez 1 Unit 3 Autour de Moi

(0)
Six pages of revision that I prepared for my year 7 students to use independently. We are using the textbook Allez and our upcoming assessment will rely heavily on Unit 3 with some vocabulary from the first two units thrown in. The revision booklet covers vocabulary, sentences and translation. There is a Foundation GCSE style writing activity with support down the left- hand side of the page. This booklet would be ideal for a cover lesson. There is also a version with the answers.

French talking about Christmas

(0)
A scaffolded worksheet with the aim of getting students to write about their Christmas in French. Starts off with vocab into English then French. Sentence builder to get students to translate sentences into French using modals. Followed by three model paragraphs - all very similar with details changed. I was going to use the opportunity to revise telling the time and daily routine. Students are asked to complete three gapfilled translations into English then translate one back into French. Finally they should be able to write about their own Christmas. If they have worked very nicely there is a battleships game to play too

A vocab and sentence building sheet for students to write about Christmas, plus a battleships game to play afterwards. Students fill in vocab Spanish to English and vice versa. Then they use the sentence builder (modals) to write about Christmas. The battleships game they see as a reward but in fact they have to read sentences many many times to win.

A worksheet introducing vocabulary about Post 16 education and aiming to get students able to form correct sentences about plans using basic modal verbs. Vocab then translation and sentence builder. A good intro to the topic and I have made this for home learning. I found it took my students 20 mins or so when we did it on Teams. Would make a good homework or cover task but also good to crack on with in class.

French plans post 16

(0)
Two worksheets (4 sides of A4 in total) /independent activities on post 16 plans designed to be independent activities over 2 lessons. Sheet 1: basic vocab, translation into English then translation of VERY similar sentences into French followed by a bsic sentence builder. Sheet 2 : more detailled sentence builder to write sentences about plans post 16 includes easy comprehension reading activity with a lot of repeated vocabulary. Students write their own sentences using the builder then read 4 short paragraphs about future plans and pick out the main information. The idea is that they use the paragraphs as a model for their own piece of writing.
