All resources are included in the price. This includes a PowerPoint for each lesson containing the new vocabulary. The PowerPoint presentations are not editable. Click the ‘Read Only’ button to open them. Some of the images only appear when the PowerPoints are played as slideshows with the animations.
In total there are 288 pages of lesson plans, games and worksheets (pdfs) and 282 slides of animated PowerPoints. All of the lessons are in zip files.
No further preparation needed.
This is Units 1, 2, 3 and 4 French designed by Blossoming Minds.
(These lessons are also available as individual lessons or as smaller units.)
A sentence builder for use with beginners modelling the use of the partitive article with food and drinks.
Two chunk-based vocabulary builders consolidating the material in the sentence builder
Two worksheets aimed at beginner year 7 French on the topic of family and introducing the vocab for family members.
The grammar focus is on mon/ma and j’ai to form sentences.
There are optional challenge questions but the idea would be that students could complete this work independently and without too much support. It would be good for homeowrk, to send home to complete or for when you need a quiet 20 minutes in class for whatever reason!
I have aimed this a middle ability set.
The first sheet is to build up from single items of vocab (family members) to sentences then on to a short paragraph. The idea is they will make fewer mistakes with writing as it is very scaffolded.
The second sheet is reading comprehension with the aim of them being able to use the reading to help them write their own piece using ideas taken from the examples they read.
This course aims at allowing primary school teachers who have little or no French at all to deliver effectively French lessons for year 5/6.
The course is made of 15 units that will allow the pupils to cover NC levels 1 to 4.
The course caters for the 4 necessary skills of modern language acquisition:
Listening (AT1)
Speaking (AT2)
Reading (AT3)
Writing (AT3)
À LA RENTRÉE we French teachers often ask ourselves what we can do on the first day of school in French class? Students coming back to French after a couple of months off for the summer often think they've forgotten everything, but we all know they mostly just need some practice and review.
Here are 25 task cards to use the first few days of school for returning students. Students will ask each other questions about summer vacation and about the new school year. Many of the questions are written in the passé composé.
Included:
25 black and white cards
25 color cards
9 ways to use these cards
SCOOT game instructions

Instructions for all activities are included. With the board game, students take turns to roll a dice and move the appropriate number of spaces. They have to say aloud in French the word, phrase or question they land on, otherwise they return to the space they came from. 3 versions are included (with minor changes around nationality and country to suit different locations). The vocabulary card can be provided for support where required. There are also six 10-card loop games, which are coloured differently. If printing in black and white use different coloured card to help keep them separate. Designed for oral practice in small groups, with a student reading out the English word or phrase on their card and others checking if they have the French translation, then reading this out - and so on until the loop is completed. In each loop you can start at any point. With the jigsaw puzzle, print, laminate and cut out the 16 triangular pieces. Students match key French vocabulary with English translations to build a larger triangle.

Here is more information regarding lessons with PowerPoints you will find in my shop:
Each lesson comes with a .doc booklet and a PowerPoint with answers included to make your life easier.
Each lesson builds onto the previous ones to enhance prior knowledge and help students retain vocabulary.
Sentence builders are key elements of each lesson. You could use them to introduce new vocabulary and do fun activities with them. Do not hesitate to contact me on Facebook if you need some help.
I made sure to use a wide range of activities for the four skills: reading, listening, speaking and writing.
There are no listening tracks. I wrote the transcripts (which are included in the PowerPoint) and I usually either record myself or read it at loud. I hope this will work well for you.
You might want to edit/tweak the starter activity I created as it is usually linked to previous topics to reactivate prior knowledge. When I have slides introducing new vocabuary, I suggest adding pictures from Google Image to help your students.
