The letters in the shaded boxes, reading from top to bottom, form a French sentence. Students write this on the lines at the bottom, placing one letter on each dash (slashes separate the words), and translate it. Choose which version you require for your students, depending on age, experience and ability: The 1-star versions have some of the letters added to the grid to support students, the 2-star versions just have the first letter of each word (or if the first letter is in a shaded box, the rest of the word has been supplied instead), while the 3-star versions (hardest) feature entirely blank grids. You can also differentiate by supplying the vocabulary support list to students who require it. This approach works especially well with the 2-star puzzles as students can use the first letter of any word they don’t know to find the French translation relatively quickly. MORE TIPS: Students could work on these puzzles in groups or mixed ability pairs. To use again, laminate and use dry-wipe pens. Students could be encouraged to use French dictionaries or the Internet for words they do not know. They could also use them to check the meaning of the hidden sentence.

Almost all text in this presentation is editable. Most slides feature answers that appear on the the click of a mouse. Recapping slides and role-play slides (with answer keys) are also included for plenty of oral practice and there’s a fun interactive Hexagons review game at the end. There’s enough here to plan multiple lessons around. In the Zip file, there is the original PowerPoint and a PDF version. While the PDF version does not retain the ability for teachers to reveal answers by clicking, it will still enable you introduce and review this topic if you do not have PowerPoint where you work. The Hexagons game is not compatible with PDF. Slides about where you live and where you come from focus on examples about Germany and other German-speaking countries, together with English-speaking countries such as US, Canada, England, Scotland, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand. This presentation is suitable for teaching younger or older students and adults as you have all the slides and examples you need to teach using either the informal ‘du’ or formal ‘Sie’ for ‘you’. It begins by using the informal ‘du’, which is ideal for younger students but at the end of the presentation (from slide 117), there are additional versions of relevant slides, the role-plays and the hexagon game, all using the formal ‘Sie’. You can either use the presentation all the way through, teaching both ‘du’ and ‘Sie’ or stop at slide 116 (especially if teaching younger students).

The 1-star versions are for lower ability, younger or less experienced students and contain support such as word banks or the start of missing words. Includes jumbled words, translations, and labelling worksheets. GRID PUZZLE: Students put the French body part words into the grid to reveal a related sentence in the shaded boxes. There’s a supported, one-star version with the first letter of each word and a two-star version without this support. HIDDEN WORD PUZZLE: Students work individually or in pairs or small groups to find translation errors with body parts vocabulary. When they find one, they circle the letter printed in the same box. At the end, they rearrange the circled letters to make another body part word. CROSSWORD PUZZLE: The clues involve students completing French phrases. An easier, one-star version gives students the first three letters of each word that they need to write into the grid. Accents not included.
