KS3 FRENCH KS4 FRENCH NUMBERS 0-100 This is a free set of 12 French Numbers 0-100 Challenge Cards with answer key and recording sheet. You will be able to use them together with the full set, as these are marked with letters, rather than numbered. The full set description is as follows:
French Numbers 0-100 Challenge Cards really do help to create a lively language learning environment. Students can develop, embed, reinforce and refresh their knowledge of French numbers in a cooperative, communicative and interactive way, independently of the teacher. They have a bonus multi-skill focus on listening, speaking, pronunciation, reading and spelling. They’re great for helping students familiarize themselves with, and develop competence in, speaking, reading, writing and spelling longer words in French. The translation questions are a great way of introducing beginner French learners to the concept of translation too.
All questions are in French, and range in complexity and challenge, both in terms of language and number skills. I’ve used visual prompts and clues such as maths symbols to ensure all learners can engage with the questions, and this helps them to begin to***infer meaning from context***, and to decode cues and prompts to foster understanding. I don’t always allow the use of calculators to increase the challenge a little. Some questions focus specifically on French maths language, which students do not always engage with very often. The question card template enables students to apply their knowledge of language and arithmetic creatively and practically too. Revisit frequently for successful consolidation and learning.
This freebie set comprises the following 3 files:
12 differentiated question cards, 6 per A4 (8.5 x 11) paper. Laminate if possible - they’re far more learner-friendly and last for absolutely years!
2-page answer recording sheet, best printed double-sided. I don’t always use a recording sheet - my students all have class workbooks, and they use those to work out their answers, and to note them down
2-page answer key, again best printed double-sided, and laminated for longevity. Answer keys are essential in my view - they create a more independent learning ethos in the classroom, and offer students and additional opportunity to engage with language.

FRENCH CONVERSATION STARTERS BUNDLE #1
**GCSE FRENCH ALEVEL FRENCH ADVANCED FRENCH CONVERSATION STARTERS** ***two sets of 100 French conversation starters @ £2.50 each in the bundle*** ***Files are non-editable in a zipped format. The resource is copyright, all rights reserved. It may not be copied, rewritten, amended, shared or distributed outside your own classroom in any way. The license for purchase is a single-user license only. Please read the Terms of Use.*** ***Set 1 French Conversation starters*** features 100 starters in question format, suitable for ***advanced beginner French*** to ***intermediate French*** students. ***Set 2 French Conversation starters*** also features 100 starters in question format, suitable for ***intermediate French*** to ***advanced French*** students. Speaking is a language skill that learners tend to find very challenging, regardless of level, and ***increased engagement with language*** that requires them to both reproduce accurately language they are already familiar with, and to be creative with that language in order to produce new language is ***integral to successful language learning***. In ***Set 1***, the questions focus largely on the ***present tense***, with some examples of the ***present perfect tense***. I include tenses we may not have formally covered, as the activity is not solely about ***practising language***, but also about ***actively learning*** it. I encourage students to look for cues and clues in the questions themselves, and this certainly enables them to engage with new or unknown language successfully, and to progress in their learning. In ***Set 2***, the questions feature ***a range of tenses and moods***, such as the ***present tense***, ***present subjunctive***, ***perfect***, ***imperfect***, and ***conditional perfect***. There are several questions focusing on ***si + imperfect + conditional clauses***, and a significant amount of ***implicit input*** on a range of ***grammatical concepts***, such as ***agreement with preceding direct object***, use of the ***subjunctive*** and so on. I try to include as broad a range of language as I can in the questions, regardless of student learning level, to ***facilitate learner progress***. I encourage students to look for cues and clues in the questions themselves, and this certainly enables them to engage with new or unknown language successfully, and to ***progress in their learning***, which is just as important for more advanced learners. Questions formats are varied, to ensure maximum opportunity to work with the ***different ways to ask questions in French***. Some questions seek to elicit very similar information, but are asked in different language: this avoids learners simply parroting learned responses to fixed prompts. Each card has an image: some of these are specific visual prompts to help students infer meaning; some are more generic images. I do use images as much as possible with this kind of activity, not only to provide the prompt, but also to add to the visual appeal of it, which is a real ***motivator for learning***. I remind students that it is not necessary to tell the truth - the purpose is to ***create and produce accurate and realistic language***. Students can prepare their responses in as much detail as possible on the accompanying planning sheet, remembering that these are conversation starters, so that once they have responded, they should then say something to continue the conversation going. ***Frequent and regular engagement*** with the activity brings the best results: with the planning sheet, students can create and prepare increasingly detailed and more complex responses, reflecting their learning progress. I definitely find it useful to read through the questions together as a whole-group, with students offering initial suggested responses. This ensures everyone can actually access the language, and they also benefit a lot from each others’ ideas. As a whole-group activity, distribute the cards amongst your students, one or several. Ideally, they should walk around the classroom, asking questions, and swapping cards. For pair or small-group work, students can work in a designated area. This really helps them focus closely on the language, and helps learners who are slightly less confident working with a larger group. The cards work particularly well as ***ice-breakers*** at the beginning of the school year. They’re also great as both ***entrance and exit tickets***, and also for ***five-minute refreshers***, which I use quite frequently during the school year. In the preparation phase, having access to bilingual dictionaries and / or the internet, this can be really helpful. These tools can help them prepare detailed responses to questions in ways that do not necessarily always focus on their own life and experiences. ***The starters in Set 1 broadly address the following themes:*** * personal information * family & routines at home * hobbies & free time * likes & dislikes * local environment * food & drink * school & studies * sport & healthy living * countries & languages * weather & seasons ***The starters in Set 2 broadly address the following themes:*** * music, film & television literature & culture * personal life, information & preferences * leisure & free time * health & well-being * history & society * recent & current events * travel, tourism & holidays * technology & social media * likes & dislikes * local environment * environmental & social issues * education & studies ***Try this freebie to see if this kind of activity would work well for your students:*** **10 FRENCH CONVERSATION STARTERS FREEBIE** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-conversation-starters-freebie-12903468](http://) ***Have a browse in my store for more French independent learning activities, and a wide range of other French teaching and learning materials, with French resource boxes, special offer bundles, and lots of freebies - I've included a couple here for you to try.*** **MERCI BEAUCOUP ET BON APPRENTISSAGE !**

FRENCH CHALLENGE CARDS BUNDLE #1
**PRIMARY FRENCH KS3 FRENCH KS4 FRENCH GCSE FRENCH CHALLENGE CARDS** 13 sets of challenge cards @ £1.25 each in the bundle. ***All files are non-editable in zipped formats. The bundle is copyright, all rights reserved. It may not be copied, rewritten, shared or distributed, in whole or in part, outside your own classroom in any way. The license for purchase is a single-use license only. Please read the Terms of Use carefully.*** Challenge cards are an ideal language learning activity, providing ***multi-skill language learning*** opportunities. These sets are ideal for a range of ***French*** language classrooms from ***KS2 French / Primary French*** to ***KS3 French***, and at ***KS4 French***, students preparing for ***GCSE French*** as practice and revision. This kind of activity really does help to create a lively language learning environment. Students can develop, embed, reinforce and refresh their ***French*** language skills in a cooperative, communicative and interactive way, independently of the teacher. The questions have a ***bonus multi-skill focus on listening, speaking, pronunciation, reading and spelling***. They’re great for helping students familiarise themselves with, and develop competence in, speaking, reading, writing and spelling in ***French*** in general, and on the focus language, for example, ***conjugating French RE verbs in the present tense*** in particular. I use task not only when we're focusing on the focus language and grammar, but also for sub lessons, as an all-year-round starter, plenary and general ‘pick-me-up’ activity. The goal is not simply to learn how ***French*** works, and how patterns can be identified and applied, it’s also about enjoying working with ***French***, and to feel confident about doing so. The questions are ***differentiated***, and range in ***complexity and challenge***, with some calling specifically upon prior and new knowledge too, helping students make links and build bridges in their learning. There may be some vocabulary that students are not familiar with - these questions give them the opportunity to learn and apply new language too. Other ***grammatical concepts*** are addressed in the questions too, such as ***gender agreement***, ***direct and indirect objects***, ***personal pronouns*** and ***question formats in French***. The ***question card template*** available in some sets enables students to ***apply their knowledge practically and creatively***, which is an essential element to successful language learning. To get the most from the questions, I frequently look at the ***multiple-choice questions*** as a whole-group, identifying not only why there is a single correct response, but what the errors are in the other choices. ***Identifying errors***, and explaining precisely why something is inaccurate or incorrect, helps students to think about language a little more laterally, and ensures that they are thinking concepts through, rather than simply relying on learned responses. All sets have full answer keys and recording sheets. ***Set 1: French Numbers 0-21 : read the full outline here:*** **FRENCH NUMBERS 0-21 : 36 DIFFERENTIATED CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-numbers-0-21-challenge-cards-11843713](http://) ***Set 2: French Numbers 0-31 : read the full outline here:*** **FRENCH NUMBERS 0-31 : 36 DIFFERENTIATED CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-numbers-0-31-challenge-cards-11759386](http://) ***Set 3: French Christmas Numbers 0-31 : read the full outline here:*** **FRENCH CHRISTMAS NUMBERS 0-31 : 36 DIFFERENTIATED CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-christmas-numbers-0-31-challenge-cards-12035663](http://) ***Set 4: French Numbers 0-100 : read the full outline here:*** **FRENCH NUMBERS 0-100 : 48 DIFFERENTIATED CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-numbers-0-100-challenge-cards-11741540](http://) ***Set 5: French Dates, Days, Months & Seasons : read the full outline here:*** **FRENCH DATES, DAYS, MONTHS, SEASONS : 36 DIFFERENTIATED CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-dates-days-months-seasons-challenge-cards-11856578](http://) ***Set 6: French Fruits : read the full outline here:*** **FRENCH FRUITS : 36 DIFFERENTIATED CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-fruits-challenge-cards-12586825](http://) ***Set 7: French Vegetables : read the full outline here:*** **FRENCH VEGETABLES : 36 DIFFERENTIATED CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-vegetables-challenge-cards-12587115](http://) ***Set 8: French Fruits & Vegetables : read the full outline here:*** **FRENCH FRUITS & VEGETABLES : 36 DIFFERENTIATED CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-fruits-and-vegetables-challenge-cards-12587126](http://) ***Set 9: French Telling the Time O'Clock & Half Past the Hour : read the full outline here:*** **FRENCH TELLING THE TIME O'CLOCK & HALF PAST THE HOUR : 60 CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-telling-time-challenge-cards-1-12833553](http://) ***Set 10: French Telling the Time Quarter to & Quarter Past the Hour : read the full outline here:*** **FRENCH TELLING THE TIME QUARTER TO & QUARTER PAST THE HOUR : 60 CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-telling-time-challenge-cards-2-12833561](http://) ***Set 11: French Telling the Time Range of Analog Clock Times : read the full outline here:*** **FRENCH TELLING TIME RANGE OF ANALOGUE CLOCK TIMES : 60 CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-telling-time-challenge-cards-3-12833565](http://) ***Set 12: French ER Verbs Present Tense : read the full outline here:*** **FRENCH ER VERBS PRESENT TENSE : 48 DIFFERENTIATED CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-er-verbs-present-tense-challenge-cards-12641881](http://) ***Set 13: French RE Verbs Present Tense : read the full outline here:*** **FRENCH RE VERBS PRESENT TENSE : 48 DIFFERENTIATED CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-re-verbs-present-tense-challenge-cards-12646092](http://) Have a browse in my store for a wide range of other ***French*** teaching and learning materials, with ***French resource boxes***, ***special offer bundles*** and lots of ***freebies*** - I've included a range of challenge cards freebies for you to try. **MERCI BEAUCOUP ET BON APPRENTISSAGE !**

The ***translation questions*** are a great way of introducing ***beginner French*** learners to the ***concept of translation*** too.

All questions are in ***French***, and ***range in complexity and challenge***, both in terms of language and number skills. I've used visual prompts such as maths symbols to ensure all learners can engage with the questions, and this helps them to begin to infer meaning from context, and to decode cues and prompts to foster understanding.

Laminate if possible - it's definitely worth the extra prep time and expense, as they're far more learner-friendly and last for absolutely years. ***2-page answer recording sheet***, best printed double-sided.

One answer key for each small group is sufficient. Answer keys are essential in my view - they encourage students to develop more independence in their learning, and offer students an additional opportunity to engage with language. ***French Numbers 0-100 Word Searches*** Word searches are a fabulous way of encouraging learners to engage with the written word, practicing and reinforcing language as they complete the grids. This set features ten differentiated word searches, focusing on ***French Numbers 0-100***, with each consecutive grid increasing in challenge. The searches offer a really useful learning opportunity - enabling learners to engage with the target vocabulary, but also aligning with cross-curricular learning - working on reading, writing, spelling, numeracy and ***French language skills*** in general. Learners are able to identify which direction words are located in within the grid by referring to the arrow key. As they move through the grids, their language skills are challenged in a range of ways - from straightforward vocabulary searching, to gap-fill, scrambled letters and more complex questions, which feature ***mathematical language in French***. Hyphens are important in ***French numbers***, and the grids feature these quite clearly, in order to ensure that learners can practise this aspect of language. There is an ***answer grid*** for each word search, so that learners can check their answers - or use for a little extra help if they need it. For me, answer keys are essential, as they not only provide learners with another opportunity to engage with language, but they also help them develop more independence in their learning. They’re also a great teacher time-saver - a real bonus! There is a single word search per page, portrait format. I like to ensure that text is accessible to all learners - and at this stage of their learning, it’s absolutely essential that language looks accessible and manageable. Word searches are really versatile too - I have folders of a range of vocabulary / theme word searches ready in folders - we can just pick them up and they’re good to go - for cover lessons, as starters, refreshers, plenaries or fun-time fillers at any time during the school year, as well as when there’s a particular focus on number recall and spelling. I also sometimes copy all the grids as a workbook, and let learners simply work their way through. The workbook format is great for home learning too. There are two formats to choose from - the search grids and answer keys as separate worksheets, and also a file with both grids and answer keys together, so that you can print each grid and key double-sided, according to which suits your classroom needs better. ***Have a browse in my store for more French independent learning activities, and a wide range of other French teaching and learning materials, with French resource boxes, special offer bundles, and lots of freebies - I've included a couple here for you to try.*** **MERCI BEAUCOUP ET BON APPRENTISSAGE !**

FRENCH CONDITIONAL TENSE RESOURCE BOX #1
**KS4 FRENCH KS5 FRENCH A LEVEL FRENCH CONDITIONAL TENSE CONJUGATION PRACTICE RESOURCE BOX** five workbooks, each focusing on a particular ***French verb group*** in the ***conditional tense (le conditionnel)***, with ***150 conjugation questions (750 conjugations in total)***, and complete ***answer keys***, ***five workbooks @ £1 each***. They're ideal for ***advanced KS4 French*** and ***KS5 French A Level French*** students who are beginning to work with more***complex language and texts in French***, including ***authentic resources***, and ***developing their knowledge of tense and mood in French***. ***The workbooks focus on formation and conjugation, rather than usage***, though it’s definitely useful to remind students of a number of things when focusing on or revising tense and verb formation and conjugation. Language learners tend to conflate what they know about grammar in their first language, with that of the language they learning. For example, students with ***English*** as a first language often look for a word that is the ***direct equivalent of would***, until they familiarise themselves with the fact that the ***notion of conditional is implicit in the verb itself***, indicated in the ***verb ending***. For this reason, I often introduce the ***future tense closely with the conditional tense*** - the patterns are similar, and it's really useful for students to ***compare and contrast tenses***, both in terms of formation and usage. ***French reflexive verbs*** tend to require additional practice - firstly, the ***correct reflexive pronoun***, and secondly, its ***location*** within a clause or sentence ***in relation to the pronoun and verbs***. I’ve found that this kind of conjugation drills workbook really helps students to ***recognise and predict conjugation patterns***, and that when my students are able to provide the correct conjugation very quickly, and out of a specific context, they feel really confident that their conjugation skills are developing well. **The verbs groups are:** *regular French -ER verbs regular & irregular French -RE verbs regular & irregular French -IR & -OIR verbs regular & irregular high-frequency French verbs reflexive verbs* I've used these 'quick conjugations' for many years with my ***French*** classes. My students definitely find them to be a great way of practising, reinforcing and revising how to conjugate essential verbs in ***French***. I use them in a range of contexts such as independent work either in class time or at home, holiday refresher work, or individual activities for cover lessons. I tend to give my students regular opportunities to practise the conjugations during the whole schools year, and they find this really useful for mapping their own progress and developing their overall understanding of how ***French*** conjugation 'works'. Though the workbook focuses solely on the correct conjugation of verbs, and does not look at word order in the context of full sentences, there are ***conjugation patterns*** that students can***learn, recognise and apply***, ensuring that their ***spoken and written French*** is accurate, and that their understanding of ***French*** across the skills of ***listening, speaking, reading and writing*** is robust. Students become very familiar and confident the more they work with conjugation, and these quick conjugations certainly help to embed that successfully. **Each set is structured as follows:** ***Two alphabetical verb reference lists***: French-English and English-French. ***Three conjugation challenges***, each with 50 individual conjugations: ***Conjugation Challenge 1***: each verb conjugated in French across a range of pronouns, with students writing the corresponding English verb conjugation. ***Conjugation Challenge 2***: gives the infinitive of each verb in French, specifying the target pronoun. Students write the corresponding verb conjugation in French. ***Conjugation Challenge 3***: students write the corresponding French verb conjugation, and its infinitive, from an English prompt. ***Notes and Next Steps*** template which students visit regularly - it really does encourage them to think about where they are now, how confident they feel, and what they might need to work on a little more to be absolutely sure of their conjugation skills. We also note down any new verbs we meet, which enables students to build up their own verb vocabulary bank. It's a great tool to guide and inform whole-group discussion about learning and progress in general, which is a really successful and popular activity. ***answer key***: 6-page booklet which is absolutely essential in my view. Answer keys help students develop more independence in their learning, and provide them with an additional opportunity to engage with language and grammar.

Please read the Terms of Use.*** My students really like this kind of grammar activity, as they like to work and learn independently, which is a successful way of varying teaching and learning methodologies - I've found it's really important to avoid predominantly teacher-led learning in the languages classroom. *There are 150 conjugations across 3 differentiated conjugation challenges with a full answer key in each set, so 450 conjugations in total.* I use these kinds of workbooks in lots of different ways: for practice during the introduction phase, for independent choice in class time, for home learning, for practice and revision during vacation and at return to class, and for cover lessons - they're really versatile, and ideal for ***KS3 French & KS4 French*** students who want to practise and refresh their conjugation skills in *French*, and work on these tenses a little more. *The workbooks focus on the mechanics of conjugation, rather than usage*, and I've found that when my students are able to provide the correct conjugation very quickly, and out of a specific context, they feel really confident that their conjugation skills are developing well. *The workbooks focus on formation and conjugation, rather than usage*, though it’s definitely useful to remind students of a number of things when focusing on or revising tense and verb formation and conjugation. Language learners do often try to conflate what they know about grammar in their first language with the grammar of the language they are learning. With the ***imperfect tense in French*** for example, students whose first language is *English* often use ***j'étais travailler instead of je travaillais as a translation of I was working***. There are *specific differences in usage* between *English and French* with this tense, and I do always discuss this with students about this when we’re using the workbooks - I tend to work fairly simultaneously with ***le passé composé and l'imparfait***, because students are better able to understand correct usage when they look at a range of past tense contexts together, for example ***I have worked, I worked, I was working, I used to work***. I refer frequently the difference in usage between *English and French*, and this is important particularly when explaining when and in which contexts to use the ***imperfect tense in French***. Though the workbooks focus solely on the correct conjugation of verbs, and does not look at word order in the context of full sentences, there are ***conjugation patterns*** that students can learn, recognize and apply, ensuring that their ***spoken and written French*** is accurate, and that their understanding of ***French*** across the skills of ***listening, speaking, reading and writing*** is robust.

**A LEVEL FRENCH KS5 FRENCH HIGHER FRENCH ADVANCED FRENCH FUTURE PERFECT TENSE CONJUGATION PRACTICE RESOURCE BOX** Five workbooks, each focusing on a particular ***French*** verb group in the ***future perfect tense (le futur antérieur)***, 150 conjugation questions (750 conjugations in total), and complete answer keys. Ideal for ***advanced French*** students who are developing ***advanced conjugation skills in French***, and working regularly with a broad range of language across the four key skills, including ***authentic resources***. The workbooks focus on formation and conjugation, rather than usage, though it’s definitely useful to remind students of a number of things when focusing on or revising tense and verb formation and conjugation. Language learners do often try to conflate what they know about grammar in their first / home language with that of the language they are learning, which can lead to forced errors. Students do need to to have a good grasp of the ***auxiliary verbs être and avoir in the future tense*** to ensure that they can form the ***future perfect tense*** accurately. In terms of the ***past participle***, students begin to be able to predict it accurately, the more they see it, and construct it. With verbs taking the ***auxiliary être***, students need to be careful with ***agreement*** too. ***Reflexives*** tend to require additional practice - firstly, the ***correct reflexive pronoun***, and secondly, its ***location within a clause or sentence in relation to the pronoun and verbs***. I’ve found that this kind of conjugation practice workbook really helps students to ***recognise and predict conjugation patterns***, and that when my students are able to provide the correct conjugation very quickly, and out of a specific context, they feel really confident that their conjugation skills are developing well. ***The verbs groups are:*** = regular French -ER verbs = French -RE verbs = French -IR & -OIR verbs = high-frequency French verbs = French reflexive verbs ***Each set is structured as follows***: ***Two alphabetical verb reference lists***: French-English and English-French. ***Three conjugation challenges***, each with 50 individual conjugations: ***Conjugation Challenge 1***: each verb conjugated in French across a range of pronouns, with students writing the corresponding English verb conjugation. ***Conjugation Challenge 2***: gives the infinitive of each verb in French, specifying the target pronoun. Students write the corresponding verb conjugation in French. ***Conjugation Challenge 3***: students write the corresponding French verb conjugation, and its infinitive, from an English prompt. ***Notes and Next Steps template*** which students visit regularly - it really does encourage them to think about where they are now, how confident they feel, and what they might need to work on a little more to be absolutely sure of their conjugation skills. We also note down any new verbs we meet, which enables students to build up their own verb vocabulary bank. It's a great tool to guide and inform whole-group discussion about learning and progress in general, which is a really successful and popular activity. ***answer key***: 6-page booklet which is absolutely essential in my view. Answer keys help students develop more independence in their learning, and provide them with an additional opportunity to engage with language and grammar. They also genuinely enjoy correcting their own - and particularly each others' - work. *Have a browse in my store for more French grammar activities, with a wide range of French language teaching and learning materials, with French resourc boxes, special offer bundles, and lots of freebies too - I've added a couple here for you to try.* *All files are non-editable files in a zipped format.
