These French Christmas Numbers 0-31 challenge cards are perfect for French Christmas lessons, and really do help to create a lively language learning environment. I’ve found that lessons around the Christmas period are a great time for revisiting and practising language and structures we’ve looked at over the semester. The questions are entirely in***French***, and students can develop, embed, reinforce and refresh their developing knowledge of French in a cooperative, communicative and interactive way, independently of the teacher. They have a bonus multi-skill focus on listening, speaking, pronunciation, reading and spelling. They’re great for helping students familiarize themselves with, and develop competence in, speaking, reading, writing and spelling in French in general, and certainly in French numbers and French Christmas vocabulary in particular.

The questions range in complexity and challenge, not only in terms of calculation, but also in terms of the level of French - they are definitely aimed at advanced beginner French learners, rather than new or recent beginners. Most learners will be able to infer meaning from context / images, which have a real French Christmas theme, such as la bûche de Noël and Père Fouettard, with vocabulary and structures repeated throughout, giving learners a chance to familiarize themselves really well with them. Nonetheless, it can be useful to read through the questions with the whole class first to check everyone is able to access the language, and therefore the activity, successfully. Students really do benefit in terms of language learning if they have several opportunities to work with the cards, rather than simply working with them in a single lesson.

The resource comprises the following:

Set of 36 differentiated question cards

answer recording sheet

answer key

question cards template

FRENCH CHALLENGE CARDS BUNDLE #1

**PRIMARY FRENCH KS3 FRENCH KS4 FRENCH GCSE FRENCH CHALLENGE CARDS** 13 sets of challenge cards @ 75p each in the bundle. ***All files are non-editable in zipped formats. The bundle is copyright, all rights reserved. It may not be copied, rewritten, shared or distributed, in whole or in part, outside your own classroom in any way. The license for purchase is a single-use license only. Please read the Terms of Use carefully.*** Challenge cards are an ideal language learning activity, providing ***multi-skill language learning*** opportunities. These sets are ideal for a range of ***French*** language classrooms from ***KS2 French / Primary French*** to ***KS3 French***, and at ***KS4 French***, students preparing for ***GCSE French*** as practice and revision. This kind of activity really does help to create a lively language learning environment. Students can develop, embed, reinforce and refresh their ***French*** language skills in a cooperative, communicative and interactive way, independently of the teacher. The questions have a ***bonus multi-skill focus on listening, speaking, pronunciation, reading and spelling***. They’re great for helping students familiarise themselves with, and develop competence in, speaking, reading, writing and spelling in ***French*** in general, and on the focus language, for example, ***conjugating French RE verbs in the present tense*** in particular. I use task not only when we're focusing on the focus language and grammar, but also for sub lessons, as an all-year-round starter, plenary and general ‘pick-me-up’ activity. The goal is not simply to learn how ***French*** works, and how patterns can be identified and applied, it’s also about enjoying working with ***French***, and to feel confident about doing so. The questions are ***differentiated***, and range in ***complexity and challenge***, with some calling specifically upon prior and new knowledge too, helping students make links and build bridges in their learning. There may be some vocabulary that students are not familiar with - these questions give them the opportunity to learn and apply new language too. Other ***grammatical concepts*** are addressed in the questions too, such as ***gender agreement***, ***direct and indirect objects***, ***personal pronouns*** and ***question formats in French***. The ***question card template*** available in some sets enables students to ***apply their knowledge practically and creatively***, which is an essential element to successful language learning. To get the most from the questions, I frequently look at the ***multiple-choice questions*** as a whole-group, identifying not only why there is a single correct response, but what the errors are in the other choices. ***Identifying errors***, and explaining precisely why something is inaccurate or incorrect, helps students to think about language a little more laterally, and ensures that they are thinking concepts through, rather than simply relying on learned responses. All sets have full answer keys and recording sheets. ***Set 1: French Numbers 0-21 : read the full outline here:*** **FRENCH NUMBERS 0-21 : 36 DIFFERENTIATED CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-numbers-0-21-challenge-cards-11843713](http://) ***Set 2: French Numbers 0-31 : read the full outline here:*** **FRENCH NUMBERS 0-31 : 36 DIFFERENTIATED CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-numbers-0-31-challenge-cards-11759386](http://) ***Set 3: French Christmas Numbers 0-31 : read the full outline here:*** **FRENCH CHRISTMAS NUMBERS 0-31 : 36 DIFFERENTIATED CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-christmas-numbers-0-31-challenge-cards-12035663](http://) ***Set 4: French Numbers 0-100 : read the full outline here:*** **FRENCH NUMBERS 0-100 : 48 DIFFERENTIATED CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-numbers-0-100-challenge-cards-11741540](http://) ***Set 5: French Dates, Days, Months & Seasons : read the full outline here:*** **FRENCH DATES, DAYS, MONTHS, SEASONS : 36 DIFFERENTIATED CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-dates-days-months-seasons-challenge-cards-11856578](http://) ***Set 6: French Fruits : read the full outline here:*** **FRENCH FRUITS : 36 DIFFERENTIATED CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-fruits-challenge-cards-12586825](http://) ***Set 7: French Vegetables : read the full outline here:*** **FRENCH VEGETABLES : 36 DIFFERENTIATED CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-vegetables-challenge-cards-12587115](http://) ***Set 8: French Fruits & Vegetables : read the full outline here:*** **FRENCH FRUITS & VEGETABLES : 36 DIFFERENTIATED CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-fruits-and-vegetables-challenge-cards-12587126](http://) ***Set 9: French Telling the Time O'Clock & Half Past the Hour : read the full outline here:*** **FRENCH TELLING THE TIME O'CLOCK & HALF PAST THE HOUR : 60 CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-telling-time-challenge-cards-1-12833553](http://) ***Set 10: French Telling the Time Quarter to & Quarter Past the Hour : read the full outline here:*** **FRENCH TELLING THE TIME QUARTER TO & QUARTER PAST THE HOUR : 60 CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-telling-time-challenge-cards-2-12833561](http://) ***Set 11: French Telling the Time Range of Analog Clock Times : read the full outline here:*** **FRENCH TELLING TIME RANGE OF ANALOGUE CLOCK TIMES : 60 CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-telling-time-challenge-cards-3-12833565](http://) ***Set 12: French ER Verbs Present Tense : read the full outline here:*** **FRENCH ER VERBS PRESENT TENSE : 48 DIFFERENTIATED CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-er-verbs-present-tense-challenge-cards-12641881](http://) ***Set 13: French RE Verbs Present Tense : read the full outline here:*** **FRENCH RE VERBS PRESENT TENSE : 48 DIFFERENTIATED CHALLENGE CARDS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-re-verbs-present-tense-challenge-cards-12646092](http://) Have a browse in my store for a wide range of other ***French*** teaching and learning materials, with ***French resource boxes***, ***special offer bundles*** and lots of ***freebies*** - I've included a range of challenge cards freebies for you to try. **MERCI BEAUCOUP ET BON APPRENTISSAGE !**
