Tenses at the Orsay Museum – KS3-GCSE French grammar worksheet

A KS3-GCSE French grammar worksheet exploring the perfect, present and near future tenses through a visit to the Orsay Museum.
Students move through structured tasks that blend tense practice with light cultural detail, using paintings, short narratives and carefully sequenced activities to consolidate how the three key tenses operate in context.

• A clear tense toolbox (perfect / present / near future)
• Gap-fill tasks written around museum-themed actions
• A small logic rebus about a famous Orsay sculpture
• A cultural reading text with comprehension questions
• A “tense mistake hunt” using a short art description
• Available in colour and black-and-white versions (PDF and editable PPTX).

This worksheet is designed as a KS3-GCSE bridge (Y8-10), ideal for classwork, homework or revision with a cultural dimension.

It can be used as a standalone grammar lesson or as a structured activity leading up to the Tenses at the Orsay Museum Grammar Escape Room.

I hope you find it useful.
