Train ‘smoke’ cards. You can print as many of these as required.
Version 1: Train not specified. Students can connect all the trucks and place the correct ‘smoke’ sign above each truck. You’ll need to print as many smoke signs as necessary.
Version 2: Students must sort through all the truck cards and build the ‘Preposition Express’ or the ‘Conjunction Express’. This can be a fun, timed group activity with as many sets of the game as required.

Let me know if you have any questions or suggestions, and a BIG BIG thanks for looking (as a full time practicing teacher, I KNOW how time consuming this process can be).
ALL my postings are FULLY "classroom-tested" - before I publish, my lessons are tested by both myself and colleagues, rigorously evaluated and discussed, and continually updated to maximize their effectiveness.

Colourful Semantics adverbs, adjectives, conjunctions and negatives pack!
What’s included in this pack?
15 conjunction cards (coordinating and subordinating)
18 modal verb cards, including negatives
54 adjective cards
9 preposition cards
36 adverb and fronted adverbial cards
Adjectives: The purple ‘describe’ cards are the adjectives in a sentence. An adjective is a describing word. The ‘describe’ card can be placed at different points to describe different words in the sentence. Various strips are included.
Adverbs:
Adverbs are words that change verbs, adjectives and other adverbs. They can modify (or change) a verb by making it more precise. This pack includes adverbs, fronted adverbials and prepositions.
Conjunctions:
Conjunctions are used to join two clauses or expand an idea. This pack contains both coordinating and subordinating conjunctions.
Negatives:
This pack includes modal verbs to show how possible something is, or how likely it is to happen/have happened. The cards help children learn how to indicate degrees of possibility and how to use them correctly in language.
The cards can also be used to help children learn to form questions by inversion. For example:
Statement = She can go to the park.
Question = Can she go to the park?
These cards are designed to be used in conjunction with the Colourful Semantics starter pack (stages 1-4), which can be purchased here: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/colourful-semantics-starter-pack-12121851
I update the packs regularly as I use them in my own classroom. You will be notified of any updates as they become available.
A fun lesson in which pupils follow online tutorials to learn how to draw characters from The Simpsons. This worksheet guides them through using prepositions and sequencing conjunctions in their instructional writing. Includes a peer assessment activity!
This was originally intended to go with expo 1 and is a simple introduction to French prepositions using pictures of a cat as a memory aid. I have found year 7 classes responded well to this and liked the cat theme! On the slide with a grid of 6 numbered pictures I have played pass the parcel. I put lots of scraps of paper with the numbers 1-6 in a box and pass it round the room to French accordian music. When the music stops the pupil holding the box pulls out a nuber and has to say the relevant French sentence. Works a treat every time!
Please leave feedback :)
I noticed that students are often confused with the grammatical terminology in French and make mistakes such as useing adjectives instead of adverbs. Hence this interactive PPT presentation on Prepositions, conjunctions and adverbs in French will clarify the function of each category and will help them with sentence building . Some gap-filling exercises provide students with practice.
This is suitable for intermediate and advanced learners of French.
