Please read the Terms of Use carefully. focusing on a range of German verb groups in the present tense, with 150 conjugation questions (750 conjugations in total), and complete answer keys ideal for advanced beginner German students who are consolidating conjugtion skills, beginning to work with compound sentences and longer texts, and generally developing their knowledge and understanding of conjugation and tense in German. 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. The verbs groups are: regular German verbs irregular & mixed German verbs high-frequency German verbs German reflexive verbs German separable verbs The workbooks focus on the correct conjugation of verbs, rather than usage, but I definitely find it useful to remind students of a number of things when focusing on or revising tense and verb conjugation. For example, with German verbs, I encourage students to look for patterns across all the verbs, such as the singular pronouns, including the pronoun man form being identical, pointing out also that man is commonly used in German, often also meaning we, unlike the pronoun one in English. There are certain complexities with German reflexive verbs, as learners whose first language does not have equivalent reflexive verbs can find identifying the correct reflexive pronoun, and particularly dative reflexive pronouns, and positioning them correctly, quite challenging. Students do often try to conflate what they know about conjugation, and with those whose first language is English, I frequently see attempts such as ich bin sich waschen for I am getting washed or similarly ich mache / tue sich erinnern for I do remember. Each set has the following structure: Two alphabetical verb reference lists: German-English and English-German. Three conjugation challenges, each with 50 individual conjugations: Conjugation Challenge 1: each verb conjugated in German across a range of pronouns, with students writing the corresponding English verb conjugation. Conjugation Challenge 2: gives the infinitive of each verb in German, specifying the target pronoun. Students write the corresponding verb conjugation in German. Conjugation Challenge 3: students write the corresponding German verb conjugation, and its infinitive, from an English prompt. Notes and Next Steps, which encourages students to think about how their understanding of German conjugation works, reflect on what progress they have made, what their targets for improvement might realistically be, and what they might reasonably do in order to meet those targets. They also use this page to note any new verbs they learn, which helps them build up a comprehensive verb vocabulary. It’s also a useful tool to guide and inform whole-group discussion about learning and progress in general, which is a really popular activity with my students. The answer key is a 6-page book 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!

SPANISH FOR CHILDREN TELLING TIME BEGINNER SPANISH TELLING TIME DECIR LA HORA ANALOG TASK CARDS 2 sets of 60 cards @ $2.85 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 carefully. These How to tell time in Spanish task cards are perfect for developing Spanish language skills in general, as well as for practicing and revising how to tell time in Spanish. Each set has 60 cards, divided into two sets of 30 questions, with a full answer key and a recording sheet. The cards have a bonus multi-skill focus on listening, speaking, pronunciation, reading and spelling, and really help students develop more independence in their learning, moving away from more teacher-led tasks and activities. Task cards are really versatile too - we use them not only when we’re focusing on the target vocabulary and structures, but throughout the year as starters and refreshers. The goal is not simply to learn and practice how to tell time in Spanish, but also to enjoy working independently with language, and to feel confident about doing so. Students sometimes find learning how to tell the time in another language quite challenging, so the focused practice is really useful. The questions in this set are a straightforward introduction to, and practice of, analog clock times in Spanish, and also to working and learning with task cards. I generally work with telling time in Spanish quite quickly with my beginner Spanish students, as it lends itself really well to promoting speaking in the classroom, discussing daily routines for example. There are two questions: ¿Qué hora es? with a particular clock face, and students write the response on their recording sheet or in their workbooks. I’ve only used the plural form of the question in these cards. The second question is Verdadero o falso? and students write either verdadero or falso - where the answer is falso remind students to write the correct time for additional consolidation. The question card template enables students to apply their knowledge of language and time creatively and practically, which is integral to successful language learning. It’s also a really popular activity too - my students really enjoy creating questions for each other. I prepare each set of cards on different color paper, so that when students are working with both sets, they can organize them into the relevant set really easily. The cards are numbered 1-60 in words, so students should recap those numbers before they work with the task cards. There are Spanish Numbers 0-100 lists in my store which you can download for free - my students find them really helpful. Each set comprises the following non-editable files: 60 cards, 6 per A4 (8.5 x 11) paper. Laminating is definitely worth the extra prep time and expense, as the cards are far more learner-friendly, and stay in excellent condition for a long time, so you’ll be able to recycle them for years. 2-page answer recording sheet. Best printed double-sided to save paper. My students generally use their class workbooks to note their answers, though I do use recording sheets for more formal assessment purposes. 2-page answer key, again best printed double-sided, and laminated if possible. For me, answer keys are an integral element to this kind of learning activity. They offer students an additional opportunity to engage with language, and to develop more independence in their learning. They’re also a great teacher time-saver, which is always a good thing! I distribute one answer key per small group when we’re working with the task cards in class time.

The license for purchase is a single-user license only. Please read the Terms of Use. Students can develop, embed, reinforce and refresh their knowledge of fruits and vegetables in German 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 familiarize themselves with, and develop competence in, speaking, reading, writing and spelling longer words and more complex sentences in German. The cards are useful not only when you’re focusing on the target vocab, but also to work on German language skills in general, such as cases, adjectival endings, grammatical structures such as um… zu + infinitive and so on. The goal is not simply to learn the target vocabulary in German, but also to enjoy working with German, and to feel confident about doing so. The questions are all in German, and range in complexity and challenge. There are 35 fruits and 37 vegetables addressed in the task cards, and it’s unlikely that they are all in your teaching and learning plan. I always include additional vocabulary to add a little challenge, and to encourage students to think a little more creatively and independently. There’s an alphabetical German-English and English-German fruits and vegetables lists with masculine and feminine fruits, definite and indefinite article, and singular and plural . This really helps students familiarize themselves with grammatical concepts without explicit instruction. There are some translation questions too - both from German to English and English to German, which is a great introduction to translation for beginner learners. I explain that there are several possible correct alternatives, as translation is not a word-for-word activity, which is definitely useful for them to know from the very beginning of their learning. The question card template enables students to apply their knowledge of language and grammatical concepts creatively and practically too. The bundle consists of 3 individual sets of task cards, each containing the following: Set of 36 question cards 2-page answer recording sheet 2-page answer key alphabetical fruits & vegetables lists, German-English & English-German Have a browse in my store for more German task cards, and more German resources including German dollar deals, special offer bundles, and lots of freebies - I’ve added a couple here for you to try.

Two sets of 100 German conversation starters @ $3.25 each in the bundle Set 1 German Conversation starters features 100 starters in question format, suitable for advanced beginner German to intermediate German students. Set 2 German Conversation starters also features 100 starters in question format, suitable for intermediate German to advanced German 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 practicing 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 wenn + subjunctive + conditional clauses, and a significant amount of implicit input on a range of grammatical concepts, such as word order with separable verbs in various tenses, um + zu clauses 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 German. 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 Have a browse in my store for more German independent learning activities, and a wide range of other German teaching and learning materials, with German dollar deals, special offer bundles, and lots of freebies - I’ve included a couple here for you to try.

I use these cards not only with my elementary French learners, but also my older beginner French learners.

ESL EFL ENGLISH FOR CHILDREN BEGINNER ENGLISH FRUITS & VEGETABLES ACTIVITIES GAMES 3 GAMES @ $2.25 EACH IN THE BUNDLE All products consist of non-editable files in zipped formats. They are copyright, all rights reserved. They 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 carefully. Set 1 focuses on fruits in English; Set 2 on vegetables in English and Set 3 on a combination of fruits and vegetables in English, ideal for advanced beginner English and intermediate English students. I have… Who has… ? is a lively & communicative whole-group language learning game, perfect for practising, reinforcing & refreshing target vocabulary in English. The game has a multi-skill focus: listening, speaking & reading, with an important bonus focus on social interaction and participation. It’s perfect for pronunciation practice too. I point out particular phonemes and sounds, such as the soft c in lettuce compared to the hard c in carrot, and the addition of n to a when preceding a noun starting with a vowel, such as an aubergine or an orange for example. The aim of the game is to create an English sentence chain as quickly as possible, starting with the first card, and ending with the final card, the last card. The game works well if the sentence sequence is placed on the floor, a longish table, or other flat surface. I created the game for young beginner learners of English, but it definitely also works well with older and adult learners too. The design is four cards per page, which allows for a large font - this is really important for beginner language learners who are familiar with the written word, and starting to link spelling with sound. Try to print in colour if you can - it adds to the visual appeal of the game, which is a real motivator for learning. There are 29 fruits featured across the 3 games: green apple; red apple; banana; cherry; date; fig; gooseberries; grapefruit; green grapes; red grapes; honeydew melon; kiwi; lemon; lime; mango; nectarine; olive; orange; papaya; peach; pear; pineapple; pumpkin; raspberry; redcurrants; rhubarb; starfruit; strawberry; watermelon and 28 vegetables: artichoke; asparagus; aubergine; green beans; beetroot; broccoli; Brussels sprout; cabbage; carrot; cauliflower; celery; cucumber; garlic; leek; lettuce; mushroom; onion; peas; green pepper; red pepper; yellow pepper; potato; sweet potato; radish; spinach; sweetcorn; tomato; zucchini All the fruits and vegetables may not be in my longer-term learning plan, but the learning objective moves beyond simply learning individual units of vocab - the images help students infer meaning from context, supported by the visual prompts and clues - this in turn supports them in developing their English language skills in the longer and more complex sentences. There is***implicit input on grammatical concepts*** such as the***lack of adjectival agreement and gender***, and position of adjectives, which are often entirely new concepts for many ESL/EFL learners. Nouns feature definite, indefinite and partitive articles too. This is a very successful way of really getting the most of what looks like a straightforward game for consolidating the target vocabulary - it is actually so much more! The question card template provides an additional learning activity, with students applying their developing English language knowledge creatively and practically, as they make game cards for the class - this is a really popular activity with my students.

SPANISH FOR CHILDREN BEGINNER SPANISH FRUITS AND VEGETABLES I HAVE WHO HAS FRUTAS Y VERDURAS EN ESPAÑOL 3 games @ $2.25 each in the bundle This resource consists of non-editable files in a zipped format.

Please read the Terms of Use carefully. Set 1: focus on fruits Set 2: focus on vegetables Set 3: focus on a combination of both fruits and vegetables I have, Who has? is a whole-group lively & communicative language learning game, perfect for practicing, reinforcing & refreshing a range of fruits and vegetables in Spanish. These games have a multi-skill focus: listening, speaking & reading, with an important bonus focus on social interaction and participation. It’s perfect for pronunciation practice too - I point out particular phonemes, accents and sounds too - such as the tilde on the letter ñ, and how important that is in creating the correct sound of the word. The aim of the game is to create a Spanish sentence chain as quickly as possible, starting with the first card, Tengo la primera tarjeta, and ending with the final card, Tengo la última tarjeta. The game works well if the sentence sequence is placed on the floor, a longish table, or other flat surface. I created the game for my young beginner learners, but I’ve also played the game with my older adult learners, who really enjoy it too. The design is four cards per page, which allows for a large font - this is really important for beginner language learners who are familiar with the written word, and starting to link spelling with sound.

All the fruits and vegetables may not be in my longer-term learning plan, but the learning objective moves beyond simply learning individual units of vocab - the images help students infer meaning from context, supported by the visual prompts and clues - this in turn supports them in developing their Spanish language skills in the longer and more complex sentences. There is implicit input on grammatical concepts such as adjectival agreement, gender, definite, indefinite and partitive articles and position of adjectives, either preceding or proceeding the particular noun. This is a very successful way of really getting the most of what looks like a straightforward game for consolidating the target vocabulary - it is actually so much more! The question card templates provide an additional learning activity, with students applying their developing Spanish language knowledge creatively and practically, as they make game cards for the class. This is integral to successful language learning, and it’s actually a really popular activity with my students. They read their new sentences to the whole class, and it’s generally a competition to see who can create the longest sentences with the most fruits. The game is also really successful when we play in teams against a timer, regularly over a longer-term series of lessons - students love to see if they can beat their own time record, as well as the other teams. The competitive element is a great motivator for learning too. íMUCHAS GRACIAS Y BUEN APRENDIZAJE!

ADVANCED BEGINNER ENGLISH INTERMEDIATE ENGLISH ADVANCED ENGLISH CONVERSATION STARTERS 200 ENGLISH CONVERSATION STARTERS two sets of 100 English conversation starters @ $3.50 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 English Conversation starters features 100 starters in question format, suitable for advanced beginner English to intermediate English students. Set 2 English Conversation starters also features 100 starters in question format, suitable for intermediate English to advanced English 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 practicing 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 if + subjunctive + conditional clauses. There is a significant amount of implicit input on a range of grammatical concepts, particularly the use of tenses. I try to include as broad a range of language as I can in the questions, regardless of student learning level, as the activity is not solely about practicing 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, 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 English. 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 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: 10 ENGLISH CONVERSATION STARTERS FREEBIE https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/english-conversation-starters-freebie-12925205 Have a browse in my store for more English resources, including English dollar deals, special offer bundles, and freebies.

GERMAN FOR CHILDREN BEGINNER GERMAN TASK CARDS BUNDLE 12 SETS @ $2.00 EACH IN THE BUNDLE Files are non-editable in zipped formats. The bundle is copyright, all rights reserved. It may not be copied, rewritten, shared or distributed outside your own classroom, in whole or in part, in any way. The license for purchase is a single-use license only. Please read the Terms of Use carefully. ​ There are 12 sets of German Task Cards in this bundle. My students absolutely love challenge cards, and find them really useful for helping them get to grips with their German. Task cards are great for independent learning - students can work at their own pace, in pairs or in small groups, and really focus on the target language. ​ The questions and templates focus on multi-skill language learning, not focusing solely on the target vocabulary - they provide students with opportunities to apply prior learning, and to encounter more complex language they may not yet have covered formally in class. ​ There are answer keys and recording sheets for every set, though my students often just use their notebooks for writing their answers. Most sets have a question card template too - this is a really popular activity with my students, and they love to create questions for each other. Additionally, this enables them to apply their developing understanding of German in a very practical and creative way. Several sets also have accompanying vocabulary lists, which are great as a learning support resource, as well as a year-round reference resource. I have a series of challenge cards sets ready to go for my students - they’re a very popular choice for our ’free-choice’ learning time. ​ Click on the links for detailed challenge card sets descriptions: ​ Set 1: German Dates, Days, Months & Seasons Task Cards https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/german-dates-days-months-seasons-task-cards-12263785 ​ Set 2: German Numbers 0-31 Task Cards https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/german-numbers-0-31-task-cards-12247769 ​ Set 3: German Christmas Numbers 0-31 Task Cards https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/german-christmas-numbers-0-31-task-cards-12264396 ​ Set 4: German Numbers 0-100 Task Cards https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/german-numbers-0-100-task-cards-12247767 ​ Set 5: German Fruits Task Cards https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/german-fruits-task-cards-12561723 ​ Set 6: German Vegetables Task Cards https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/german-vegetables-task-cards-12561733 ​ Set 7: German Fruits & Vegetables Task Cards https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/german-fruits-and-vegetables-task-cards-12565466 ​ Set 8: German Telling the Time Task Cards : O’clock & Half Past the Hour https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/german-telling-time-task-cards-1-12715216 ​ Set 9: German Telling the Time Task Cards : Range of Analog Clock Times https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/german-telling-time-task-cards-2-12924645 ​ Set 10: German Regular Verbs Present Tense Challenge Cards https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/german-regular-verbs-present-tense-task-cards-12247765 ​ Set 11: German Irregular Verbs Present Tense Task Cards https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/german-irregular-verbs-present-tense-task-cards-12247766 ​ Set 12: German Separable Verbs Present Tense Task Cards https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/german-separable-verbs-present-tense-task-cards-12715211 ​ All files are non-editable in a zipped format and include the following: ​ differentiated question cards, students don’t have to work through all cards at once - they can select cards randomly for short periods of time during lessons, whatever way suits your learning plan best. ​ answer recording sheet - I don’t actually always use these - I let students use their work notebooks for answers simply use their notebooks for answers. In some set, I’ve included a sheet with a background, and one without. Similarly, in some sets I’ve also included a blank sheet, with no numbers, which is useful when students are working ‘randomly’ through the cards at different times. ​ answer key - I find having a key essential for students, as it helps them to work and learn independently, and it also offers extra opportunity to engage with language - I tend to laminate sets of answer keys - one answer key for each small group is enough ​ question cards template for students to apply their knowledge practically, and to create questions for each other - this is a really challenging and popular activity, and I encourage students to include other vocab and verbs they know or learn. ​ Have a browse in my store for more German independent learning activities, and a wide range of other German teaching and learning resources, with German dollar deals, special offer bundles, and lots of freebies - I’ve included a couple here for you to try.

PRIMARY FRENCH IMMERSION FRENCH FOR CHILDREN FRENCH IMMERSION BEGINNER FRENCH INTERMEDIATE FRENCH TASK CARDS 13 sets of task cards @ $2.25 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. Task cards are an ideal language learning activity, providing multi-skill language learning opportunities. These sets are ideal for a range of French language grades. 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 differentiated 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.
