This is a 5 lesson French unit for beginners, perfect for using with KS2. It teaches children numbers, how to say their age, colours, how to describe their eyes and hair and how to describe their height and size. Each lesson is highly interactive and allows children to practise a range of language skills.

There is a PowerPoint for each lesson which includes an audio version of each French word or phrase to make it easier for anyone to be able to teach the lessons. You can also play the PowerPoints without the audio. (The PowerPoints are not editable. Click ‘Read Only’ to open them. Some of the images are only revealed when the PowerPoints are played as slideshows with the animations.)
