PRIMARY FRENCH KS3 FRENCH FOR CHILDREN TELLING THE TIME ANALOGUE O’CLOCK LIST WITH MATCHING CLOCK FACES

I like to give visual vocabulary lists to my young beginner learners of French, as they can generally more easily assimilate new language and vocabulary when they are able to link it in their memory with a visual image, and it’s particularly important to match a clock time with the corresponding clock face when learning how to tell the time. Children glue the lists into their French vocabulary books, or file them in their French vocabulary folders with other vocabulary lists, which gives them an accessible and useful French vocabulary reference bank for both class and home learning.

For young and / or beginner French learners, I focus initially on a single time set, and this list shows o’clock on a single page. This is because in my experience students benefit from a very clear outline of new language and vocabulary, avoiding lots of text on a single page - even my older students who are completely new to French prefer this. When I’m sure that students are confident with o’clock, I then move on to additional time sets.

There are two backgrounds to choose from - French flag, which I use for French vocabulary display, or plain.

My students find this how to tell the time in French o’clock worksheets freebie really helpful:

All my students, regardless of age, find playing the games a great way of consolidating their ***French vocabulary***, and developing their ***French language skills***. The games are perfect for multi-skill language learning: speaking, listening, reading, writing and spelling in ***French***. The grids are designed for all the squares to be crossed off in order to win the game. I often play with all three time sets at once for maximum challenge - I print each set on different colour paper, so that students can easily identify the time set. I also have laminated sets to use with wipe-clean pens. It's a lot of prep, but the grids remain in excellent condition for years, so I do get lots of use from them. ***Each set includes the following non-editable files:*** = 50 clock face 9-square grids, 2 per page (25 pages) to develop listening skills and vocabulary recall = 30 French time phrases bingo 9-square grids, 2 per page (15 pages) to develop listening and reading skills = 20 mixed clock face and time phrase 9-square grids, 2 per page (10 pages) ideal for general French language skills development = calling card with time phrases written out in full, simply tick the relevant column to keep track of which time phrases have been called out in each game ***Have a browse in my store for a wide range of French resources, with special offer bundles and freebies.*** **MERCI BEAUCOUP ET BON DIVERTISSEMENT !**

FRENCH VOCABULARY CARDS BUNDLE #2

**PRIMARY FRENCH VOCABULARY KS3 FRENCH VOCABULARY BEGINNER FRENCH VOCABULARY CARDS THREE SETS @ £2.35 EACH IN THE BUNDLE** ***594 matching French and English games cards with two Reference, Recall & Write Workbooks, focusing on 297 beginner French words and phrases***. ***Files are non-editable files in a zipped format. Please read the Terms of Use - the resource is copyright, all rights reserved. It may not be copied, rewritten, shared or distributed outside your own classroom in any way. The license for purchase is a single-user license only.*** ***The vocabulary groups are as follows:*** = Les salutations = Les jours de la semaine = Les mois et les saisons de l’année = Les couleurs (masculiine & feminine) = Les nombres 0-60 = Les animaux = Les fruits et légumes = Les parties du corps (singular & plural) = Ma famille = Mots fréquents = Les matières scolaires = Le français pour la salle de classe = Quel temps fait-il aujourd’hui ? = Bavardons ensemble ! = Questions et réponses* My students really like to work independently, in pairs and in small groups, and these vocabulary cards enable them to do that. There are lots of games and activities to play, and I’ve described several that are successful with my groups. I’ve found that giving students regular and frequent opportunities to play with the cards, not only when we’re focusing on these particular vocab groups, but across the school year, and even when they’re far more advanced in their learning - all learners benefit from going back to the start! There’s definitely some prep involved - printing, laminating and cutting out - laminating is certainly worth the effort, as the cards are a lot more learner-friendly, and do last for years. Students don’t have to play with full sets - they can work with selected vocab groups. There is an ***18-page workbook for each set***, which gives students a different way of consolidating their vocabulary - writing it out really helps to embed language, and is great for spelling too. There are ***3 differentiated recall and write challenges***, as well as a full ***alphabetical French-English vocabulary list***, which works well as a longer-term reference resource too. My students learn a lot from applying their ***French*** practically with the game card templates - they enjoy creating cards for each other. I use the workbook for homework, holiday work, practice and revision or sub lessons - they’re really versatile. ***Written Recall Challenge One:*** students write the English word / phrase from a French prompt, with all the words and phrases grouped together in the same category ***Written Recall Challenge Two:*** with this challenge, students write the words / phrases in French from an English prompt, and again, they’re all group together in the same category ***Written Recall Challenge Three:*** this final challenge ‘switches’ at each question from French to English, and lists words and phrases randomly from each category - I’ve found that this really does encourage my students to think hard about their French vocab. ***Have a browse in my store for more French independent learning activities, and a wide range of other French teaching and learning resources, with French dollar deals, special offer bundles, and lots of freebies - I've included a couple here for you to try.*** **MERCI BEAUCOUP ET BON APPRENTISSAGE !**

PRIMARY FRENCH POSTERS FLASHCARDS BUNDLE #1

**PRIMARY FRENCH DISPLAY POSTERS FLASHCARDS** *instant back to school and year-round learning displays*!V I really make the most of my classroom learning displays, using them for *speaking prompts, to embed vocab, to practise pronunciation, reading and spelling*. This is a great starter display bundle for **Primary and Year 7 French**. A successful classroom language learning display enables students to make links in language, to identify patterns, to engage with a range of linguistic concepts, such as adjectival agreement and gender, and to begin to understand how sounds are represented in the written form, which is a really useful platform for working with phonics. It doesn’t matter if some of the vocab doesn't feature in your immediate or even longer-term learning plan: the posters provide learners with daily opportunities to engage with the written word in **French**, to develop their recognition and recall of individual words, and also help learners begin to work out the meaning of new and unknown words from visual clues or prompts. Along the way, learners can suggest new related vocab or language they learn to add to the displays, which makes them really interactive, and a reflection of their learning path. The posters work just as well as flashcards, which are great for introducing and practicing language in general (students don't have to learn all the nouns or phrases!), and for playing games to engage students with French. All the posters/flashcards are great for young learners to learn with together in groups too! **Animal Kingdom** (40 posters, 20 French flag background, 20 animal footprint) My younger French students really love the animals posters, and like to compare the French and English words, or words in other languages they know and speak. I've found that they also help very young children develop their growing understanding of the animal kingdom. We don't necessarily learn all the animals, but we do use them for pronunciation and speaking practice, and for memory games too. They really give the classroom a great French ambiance. *Students definitely notice the different words for a/an, and ask why some animals are un, and others are une. I've used this as a useful prompt to introduce the concept of gender*. There are *20 animals using the masculine and feminine indefinite article*, which again is a great opportunity to begin to compare French to English. I���ve chosen a couple of insects and birds, as well as animals that feature in very popular stories, such as ours and loup. Looking at language, and the ways it works, either similarly to, or differently from their first language, helps learners become implicitly aware of linguistic concepts in both languages, which I've found to be really useful for both current and later learning. **Breakfast** (40 posters, 20 French flag background, 20 blackwave) There are *20 breakfast items within a sentence, Je prends… Je mange…, Je bois…, using either indefinite or partitive article, singular or plura*l - I designed these specifically to combine high-frequency vocab building, and to promote more speaking in the classroom, both teacher-student and paired speaking ie student-student **Christmas** (60 posters, 30 blue winter background, 30 blackline snow) I love to give my learning environment a really French Christmas feel - even my older students appreciate it. With my younger learners, it's not about learning all the French Christmas vocabulary (30 is too many for young beginners!), it's about giving them daily opportunities to engage with the French language through guessing games, pronunciation practices and so on. *I’ve included a selection of both generic Christmas words, such as bauble and Christmas tree, as well as more Francophone-specific words, such as Père Fouettard and la galette des Rois.* **Clothes** (40 posters, 20 French flag background, 20 black wave) There are 20 nouns relating to clothes and what we wear, *focusing on singular and plural nouns with the indefinite / partitive article, some with color/adjectival agreement*. There are four poster headers: *les vêtements, Qu’est-ce que tu portes ?, Qu’est-ce que tu as ? and Qu-est-ce que c’est ?* The labels/answers correspond to the question format. This really does help to promote speaking in the classroom, and I often use the posters for quick speaking refreshers at various points in an individual lesson, or across a series of lessons, really getting the most out of the display. **Colours** (36 posters, 18 French flag background, 18 black wave) The key colours are: *black; blue; brown (both brun and marron); cream (both crème and vanilla); green; grey; navy blue; orange; bright pink; pink; purple; red; turquoise; white; yellow. There's also a poster / flashcards showing the French Flag*. I've included a couple of French colours freebies in the bundle - one focusing on favorite colour, so that we can do some speaking based on the initial question *Quelle est ta couleur préférée?* and one focusing on adjectival agreement with the colour green, using questions such as *Vrai ou faux ? Le monstre verte?* **Fruits** (50 posters, 25 French flag background, 25 black wave) There are *25 fruits, definite article, feminine and masculine* - that's so useful as a way into the concept of gender. We don't actually learn 25 fruits at this stage, but I use a range that includes some that children may not know yet, such as *starfruit* and *redcurrants*. That's ideal for discussing healthy eating, and for generally developing children's vocabulary in their own language too. **Numbers 1-20** (40 posters, 20 French flag background, 20 black wave) Number displays are great for linking vocab with some mental math - *there's definitely a French theme to a lot of the posters, such as the Eiffel Tower and pain au chocolat!* **Numbers 0-31** (64 posters, 32 French flag background, 32 black wave) There is a lot of potential for speaking and pronunciation practice, as well as a focus on spelling French numbers correctly - I tend to do more complex mental math calculation with these numbers, as well as more general production and manipulation of language, as there are many contexts this range of numbers address, such as birthday, which is always a popular one! **Vegetables** (50 posters, 25 French flag background, 25 black wave) *There are 25 vegetables, definite article, feminine and masculine* - as with the fruits posters, these are really useful to start to engage with the concept of gender. We don't actually learn 25 vegetables at this stage, but I use a range that includes some that children may not know yet, such as *asparagus* and *artichoke* to stimulate discussion in general, and encourage students to discover and suggest (and try!) new vegetables for the display. **Telling the Time in French**: o'clock, half past, quarter to and quarter past the hour, analogue There are two backgrounds to choose from - French flag or black wave, so that you can choose which would suit your learning environment. The posters show analogue clock times o'clock, half past, quarter to and quarter past the hour. I use them as classroom display, and also as flashcards during the introduction phase of telling time. I tend to focus initially on o'clock and half past, as I've found that when students are confident with the concept of telling the time in French, they're able to assimilate all the clock times more successfully at a slightly later date. They're great for flashcard introduction and practice of new language, particularly with small groups. I often display a set of a particular clock time (or indeed vocab theme) at different times of the school year, as this gives us chance to revisit and practise vocab and concepts. I've included a range of my elementary **French freebies** for you to try, in case you haven't seen them in my store. The products are all non-editable in zipped formats.

PRIMARY FRENCH FRUITS & VEGETABLES POSTERS FLASHCARDS

**PRIMARY FRENCH FRUITS CLASSROOM DISPLAY POSTERS FLASHCARDS** My younger students love to see *French* displays in the classroom, and they also work really well for older beginner *French* learners too. There are *25 fruits and 25 vegetables, definite article, feminine and masculine, singular and plural* - that’s so useful as a way into the *concept of gender.* I tend to vary my displays quite regularly, and have different posters up at various times of the school year. We use them as speaking and pronunciation prompts, and for guessing games too. We don’t actually learn 25 fruits or vegetables at this stage, but I use a range that includes some that children may not know yet, such as *starfruit* and *aubergines*. That’s ideal for discussing *healthy eating*, and for generally developing children’s vocabulary in their own language too. The posters work really well as flashcards too, and they’re great for introducing and practising language with a ‘low-tech’ method, giving us all a break from the whiteboard, which children definitely enjoy! **The fruits are**: green apples; red apple; bananas; cherries; dates; fig; green grapes; red grapes; kiwi; lemon; mango; nectarine; olives; oranges; papaya; peach; pears; pineapple; pumpkin; raspberry; redcurrants; rhubarb; starfruit; strawberries; watermelon **The vegetables are**: artichoke; asparagus; beetroot; broccoli; cabbage; carrots; cauliflower; celery; corn; cucumber; eggplants/aubergines; French/green beans; garlic; leeks; lettuce; mushrooms; onions; peas; red peppers; yellow pepper; potatoes; sprouts; spinach; sweet potatoes; tomato The posters are 8.5 x 11 (A4) portrait size. There are two backgrounds to choose from - French flag or black wave, so 100 posters in total. The fruits and vegetables are in my store separately, at £3.00 each.

FRENCH NEAR FUTURE TENSE RESOURCE BOX #1

**GCSE FRENCH KS4 FRENCH KS3 FRENCH NEAR FUTURE TENSE CONJUGATION PRACTICE** There are five workbooks, each focusing on a particular French verb group in the near ***future tense (le futur proche)***, with ***150 conjugation questions (750 conjugations in total)***, and ***complete answer keys, five workbooks @ £1 each***. **The verbs groups are:** ***regular French -ER verbs regular & irregular French -RE verbs regular & irregular French -IR & -OIR verbs regular & irregular high-frequency French verbs reflexive verbs*** 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. There are ***150 conjugations across 3 differentiated conjugation challenges with a full answer key in each set***. I use these kinds of workbooks in lots of different ways: for practice during the introduction phase, for independent choice in class time, for home learning, for practice and revision during vacation and at return to class, and for cover lessons - they're really versatile, and ideal for ***advanced KS3 French to beginner KS4 French*** students who are beginning to work with texts that feature multiple tenses, want to practise and refresh their conjugation skills in ***French***, and practice the ***near future tense in French*** a little more. I've found that when my students are able to provide the correct conjugation very quickly, and out of a specific context, they feel really confident that their conjugation skills are developing well. ***The workbooks focus on formation and conjugation, rather than usage***, but it’s definitely useful to remind students of a number of things when focusing on or revising tense and verb formation and conjugation. Language learners do tend to conflate what they know about grammar in their first language, with the language they are learning. For example, students with ***English as a first language*** students often use the construct ***je suis aller travailler*** instead of ***je vais travailler*** as a translation of ***I am going to work***. Usage in both ***English and French*** is really similar with this tense, and I do always discuss that this is not always the case with tenses and moods in languages. Though the workbook focuses solely on the correct conjugation of verbs, and does not look at word order in the context of full sentences, there are ***conjugation patterns*** that students can***learn, recognise and apply***, ensuring that their ***spoken and written French*** is accurate, and that their understanding of ***French*** across the skills of ***listening, speaking, reading and writing*** is robust. Students become very familiar and confident the more they work with conjugation, and these quick conjugations certainly help to embed that successfully. **Each set is structured as follows:** ***Two alphabetical verb reference lists***: French-English and English-French. ***Three conjugation challenges***, each with 50 individual conjugations: ***Conjugation Challenge 1***: each verb conjugated in French across a range of pronouns, with students writing the corresponding English verb conjugation. ***Conjugation Challenge 2***: gives the infinitive of each verb in French, specifying the target pronoun. Students write the corresponding verb conjugation in French. ***Conjugation Challenge 3***: students write the corresponding French verb conjugation, and its infinitive, from an English prompt. ***Notes and Next Steps*** template which students visit regularly - it really does encourage them to think about where they are now, how confident they feel, and what they might need to work on a little more to be absolutely sure of their conjugation skills. We also note down any new verbs we meet, which enables students to build up their own verb vocabulary bank. It's a great tool to guide and inform whole-group discussion about learning and progress in general, which is a really successful and popular activity. ***answer key***: 6-page booklet 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. ***Try this free sampler to see whether this kind of activity would work well for your students:*** **FRENCH CONJUGATION PRACTICE FREE SAMPLER** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-verbs-conjugation-practice-sampler-12307809](http://) ***Currently in my store I have quick conjugation workbooks for each of these verbs groups across the following tenses:*** present tense *(le présent)* simple future tense *(le futur simple)* near future tense *(le futur proche)* perfect tense *(le passé composé)* imperfect tense *(l'imparfait)* conditional tense *(le conditionnel)* pluperfect tense *(le plus-que-parfait)* future perfect tense *(le futur antérieur)* conditional perfect tense *(le conditionnel passé)* ***Have a browse in my store for more French grammar activities, and a wide range of other French teaching and learning materials, with special offer bundles, resource boxes, and lots of freebies too - I've included a couple here for you to try.*** *The product is non-editable in a zipped format.
