The first slides have the phrase and a picture. Use this to elicit the pronunciation, the English and to drill. I also like to elicit a gesture for each month, which we then use for a fun game of Simon Says!
The next slide (14) has pictures of all the phrases. This can be used for a Beat the Teacher game, which the students love! The teacher points to a picture and says a word. If it is the correct word the students all repeat it. If its the wrong word the students must stay absolutely silent. If they do, they win 1 point. If not, the teacher gets 1 point. Most points wins!
Use slide 21 to pounce on students (directed questioning).
The final slide links into birthdays asking:
Quelle est la date de ton anniversaire?
With the model answer:
Mon anniversaire, c’est le 30 janvier
The matching cards can be used either to elicit the months or to revise previous learning. As the months are so straight-forward, I have added cultural information and longer sentences to expose the students to new facts and vocabulary as well as practising the months.
French Expressions:
Mon anniversaire est le quinze septembre, c’est génial!
J’adore l’Halloween, donc j’adore le mois d’octobre !
Je fais des bonhommes de neige en janvier en France, c’est cool !
Poisson d’avril !
Je mange beaucoup d’œufs au chocolat en mars et avril car c’est Pâques!
La fête nationale a lieu le 14 juillet.
Les mois d’été sont juin, juillet et août.
Le 14 février, c’est le Saint-Valentin, c’est très romantique!
J’espère voir le père Noel en décembre!
You may choose to have different levels of challenge. For example,
Level 1 = match the cards and discuss the pronunciation.
Level 2 = match the cards , discuss the pronunciation and then have quick fire questions from French to English, whereby 1 student closes their eyes and their partner reads out the French cards which the student must translate into English from memory.
Level 3 = As Level 2 but the quick fire questions are from English to French.
Then play pelmensim or slap the card.
