This game is an excellent way of revising grammar and it is specifically tailored at IGCSE level, however it can also be used to revise grammar at A-Level also. For those of you who are unfamiliar with this game, basically the class is divided into two teams. If a team gets a question right (on whatever topic) they place their coloured hexagon over the topic and they can pick another question. If they get a question wrong, the other team will have a chance to answer. The first team to get their coloured hexagons in a line either horizontally or diagonally, wins the game! This pack contains the game board and questions from each topic! Keep an eye out for my resources as I will be soon publishing more differentiated questions for students of a stronger ability!

Welcome to the first installment of the advanced series for adults who are studying French, published by Palmer Language Services. At this level, students are beginning to adopt a more independent approach in their studies and tend to evade from the use of their mother-tongue language influence, thus the use of extracting material from texts. This resource extensively explores the unique life and story of Jeanne Louise Calment who lived to an incredible age of 122 years and 164 days and she was only verified human being to have lived to such an age. She also outlived both her daughter and grandson by several decades. The introduction of the subjunctive, using the verbs ‘avoir’ and ‘être’ are also incorporated in this activity, in addition to using them as auxiliary verbs when the perfect subjunctive is formed. Initially, before reading the text, students should be asked in French if they have any knowledge about Jeanne Calment and if so, what do they know about her. Students should then read the text out loud and then complete the subsequent activities which follow. This resource also incorporates all four key skills such as listening, reading, writing and speaking, in addition to an array of grammar activities. The good news is that you don’t have any particular need to make any preparatory planning, prior to teaching this topic as all the material contained is self-explanatory, which will enable the students to think for themselves. The contents of this resource are as follows: The worksheet activities Sound file for the listening activity The transcript for the listening activity Happy teaching and learning!

Preparation time: 30 minutes - 1 hour (introducing new vocabulary and also the transcript and sound files for the listening activity) Lesson length: 1.5 hours - 2 hours Here is the 10th resource for introducing French to adults at beginner’s level! I have compiled this resource using an adult approach who are learning French for the very first time. This activity focuses on the time around the clock in between intervals, i.e. seventeen minutes past four, twenty-three minutes to three, etc. It also incorporates the verbs ‘partir’ and ‘etre’ in the present tense, forming questions using ‘est-ce que’, alongside the distinction between ‘a quelle heure’ and ‘quand’. Several places in France are also introduced. This resource also incorporates all the four keys skills such as reading, listening, speaking and writing. Accompanied with this resource is the worksheet, the transcript and the sound files for the listening assignment. I also have a new bundle created which includes all the first ten installments at a discounted price! Happy teaching and learning!

This resource looks at various Asian countries in French with their prepositions, such as ‘au’, ‘en’ and ‘aux’. There is a memory game of the prepositions and the names of the Asian countries in French.

There is also a quiz about the countries and subsequently, the students then copy out the table and fill in the missing gaps. There is also an accompanying colouring in poster of the flags of the Asian countries with a wordsearch. Furthermore, there is a reading comprehension activity attached with differentiated questions. This resource is geared at Key Stage 3 level. Happy teaching and learning!

Here is a resource which looks at the formation of a wide range of irregular verbs in French. This resource details in step by step form as to how to form the conjugation of irregular verbs. There are also thinking opportunities for students to conjugate irregular compound verbs. I have also attached a crossword if your students complete the work in this resource. I have also included a blockbusters game in the theme of irregular verbs. The rules are as follows: The idea of the game is to score a line through, blocking one’s opponent in the process. A through line can either be completed horizontally or vertically. Whichever hexagon one chooses, that person has to rule one dice and the number indicated on the dice will determine which subject he/she must conjugate with the verb. The numbers indicated on the dice are as follows: Je Tu Il Nous Vous Ils For example, if ‘dire’ is selected and the number shown on the dice is a ‘1’, that person will then have to conjugate ‘dire’ with ‘je’. If the player gives the correct answer, he/she can claim that square. If the answer is wrong, the turn then goes to the other team players. Happy teaching and learning!
