A reading comprehension which uses language from the toolkit I've shared on being part of a club. The text includes 'interviews' from Mo Farrah, Rebecca Addlington, and Tom Daley. There are two versions of the text (higher/foundation), with exercises afterwards. However, the answers are the same so you can mark it with the class at the same time.

But it can also be used for GCSE since the language requirements are so similar. It also includes a list of French idioms which examiners like to hear! Any feedback would be much appreciated :)

This is a very clear speaking/writing frame, designed to make it easy for KS3/KS4 students to talk and write about festivals in French, to include: opinions and reasons, what happens at a festival and what they did last year.

This is a very clear, easy to use worksheet with differentiated exercises - Bronze, Silver and Gold - giving students the confidence to give extended opinions on school subjects. Each section starts with support at word level - students have to write the correct answer from a short list of options, then they use this to translate at sentence level. Each section adds a new way of extending sentences - opinions, adjectives, intensifiers, connectives and adverbs of time, therefore also supporting whole school literacy! I hope you find it useful : ) The German version is available here: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/schulf-cher-subjects-extending-opinions-12374342

Houses for Sale: French Estate Agent Reading Comp

(0)
This fun activity gives students the chance to see what real-life adverts for houses up for sale look like. This is a chance for students to recognise key vocabulary from the topic of House/Home, such as rooms in the house. The exercise that follows allows students to work out complex and interesting vocabulary from the adverts, which they can then use themselves in a follow up activity - designing your own house for sale advert! I normally use this with a confident class in Year 8 or 9.
