This worksheet uses the topical theme of Pancake day to practice using il faut + the infinitive, it has activities including a gap-fill, recognition of words and sentence structure, translation, grammar guidance and find the French. There are extra tasks to keep those students who work through it at a faster pace, or you may wish to use the extra tasks for differentiation. I have used this with year 8 students for cover work and also for when I am assessing spoken French as students can work independently through the tasks with minimum guidance. I have included the answer sheet for self/peer checking.

Prior to the assembly, get each tutor group to nominate a 'flipper' and a 'counter'. You will need to buy a pack of ready made pancakes & borrow a frying pan from Food teacher for each tutor group. I spoke about giving up biscuits é signing up to Race for life - you may want to change these slides. The 'flipping slide' has a link to a stopwatch - 1 minute was plenty. I got the counters to count for a different tutor group.
