You may want to review past tense using a little fun. This activity is designed around past tense ( Passe-compose) and daily routine. Student have to make their own song ( rap) using past. I enjoyed it with my French II this year.
Fun rap for the whole class either one line each, or in pairs, or all together. Fantastic for GCSE learning with multiple tenses.
Worksheet for translation games and vocab (translation) noting. I use the worksheet to call out the English, they try to identify the phrase - everyone then writes it down.
Go into your colleague’s class and perform it!
Adapted a format by another user (sorry I can't credit them as I can&'t find their name) to revise past tense using avoir.
Changing a text to past tense; verb quiz; wigwam conversation and reading comprehension.
