This presentation starts by comparing how many own their own houses in the UK and Germany. Then, using the German logic, looking at the vocab of rooms in the house. There is then a team game to practise the new vocab and, finally, a matching activity.

Teach pupils how to form and when (and when not!) to use the present participle in French.

One of my personal favourites! Have a reading text in the box. In 2 teams, pupils choose a word to find in the text. The pupils don’t know what each word is worth. Click on the word they have chosen when they have correctly identified it in the text and their score will be revealed. The winning team is the team with the highest score once all words have been found in the text. 3 slides with different scores.

You must buy sentences at every shop. Each sentence costs 1€. Each sentence is worth a different amount of winnings. Draw your Euros into your winning column. If you run out of Euros in your bank, you can use your winnings to buy sentences. The winners have the most Euros. Full instructions in the notes section of the PPT.

Groups of 3 or 4. Choose a pupil at random to choose a number. Click on the number (on your computer) to reveal a word. All pupils have 30 seconds to write a sentence using that word. The most impressive (and correct) sentence wins a point for their team.

Use this PPT to introduce directions to pupils in French. There is a map with an animated arrow to show the directions as well as giving the French. Pupils then match the French to the English in their books.

A card sort, allowing pupils to match the questions to the answers across different topic areas.

Introducing the time in German. Starts with a reminder of the time in English, then introduces it in German and ends with mini whiteboard practice.

This is a really fun activity to do with a whole class! If they have the phrase that's just been said in one language, they stand up and say it in the opposite language. They then say the second phrase they have on their card. By the end of the activity, everyone in the class should have said a phrase in French about daily routine and time. Full instructions are on the bottom of the document.

Idea lesson starter after being taught the present tense in French. Pupils find the 6 correct present tense phrases from the grid. When they click on the phrase, it will either show a tick or a cross.

Recap on near future phrases using this Have I Got News For You-style resource.

The pictures and phrases are placed around the room (several copies). Pupils work in groups of 3 or 4. Each person has 30 seconds to go up to the pictures and memorise as much information as possible without speaking. They return to their group and relay as much as possible. Pupils take it in turns to do the same. Each person has 2 chances to do this.

A Battleships-style game to practise the present tense of regular and irregular verbs, as well as the perfect tense of common verbs, using both 'avoir' and 'être'. The verbs used as examples are: écouter finir vendre faire aller être

Pupils roll a dice and then conjugate the given verb in the simple future. Both regular and irregular verbs are practised. Answers can be revealed at the end.

In two teams, pupils choose a number in English from the board and say it in the target language. If it’s correct, click on the number to reveal the random score underneath.

Introduce the logic and patterns of the higher numbers (100s and 1000s) in German.

Use this template to practise transcription work in pairs. There is a sheet for person A and one for person B. Type the 2 different texts into the relevant boxes (they must be 2 different texts). Pupils then take it in turns to read their text to their partner, who must then write what they hear in the empty box. After they have both finished, they then compare their written text to the original on their partner's sheet and tally any errors made.

Use this PPT to introduce the weather in French. To start, the weather is shown on a map of France. It is worth looking at the patterns of language used here (il y a / il). The patterns are colour-coded. Then the vocab is formally introduced. Following this, pupils must identify the weather in French as it whizzes past.

Use this resource for working with translation of phrases. Before seeing a text, take phrases from it to be translated. Pupils work on their own and before each slide is shown, decide whether they will do gold, silver or bronze. Marks are awarded for each. You will obviously need to make the phrases progressively more difficult to translate, to be able to award points. When pupils have translated their chosen phrase, they swap with a partner to have it marked. You show the answers after a given amount of time. Use the green pens to peer mark. Who has the highest score?

Use this PPT to practise pupils’ memory skills. There are 10 random words that appear at timed intervals that they must try to remember without taking notes, then activities to follow. At the end, using the vocab, pupils play noughts and crosses in teams.
