Lessons on:
my name / my age
languages I speak
my nationality
my personality
my physical description (eyes/hair)
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.
Here are some lessons that could be taught before this topic:

Do you want to help your students be prepared for their end of year speaking exam?
This bundle should definitely help you. I have created documents for my iGCSE students which include:
Help regarding what they need to include to achieve top marks. (list of opinions, time phrases, tenses (+ most common verbs conjugated in 6 different tenses, A* structures + examples (that students have to translate in English).
Speaking questions for Topic A-B-C-D-E (education & employment / home & abroad / home & daily routine / modern world / social activities - sports - fitness ) that my students could expect & potential answers / chunks for them to create their own answers) (20 pages)
On top of this all, you will have access to a powerpoint full of idioms (more than 100) that I have gathered (French & English translation). Great for the « uncommon language » required at iGCSE.
some more A* structures
(Free sample here : https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/igcse-gcse-speaking-questions-education-and-employment-12018194 )
https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/french-gcse-speaking-practice-board-game-end-of-year-questions-revision-12082694
Made a board game for my Y11 to revise past & future tenses only.
It comes with grammar help (time phrases, some A* structure, verbs conjugated with “je” and a list of adjectives).
I have used it to help students remember that :
For conditional with “Je” - they only need to add an “s” to the future tense verbs.
For the past tense, 90% of the time we need an “é” sound (pronunciation)
For the future tense, 100% there is a “r” sound.
For the near future, it is 100% regular.

**Analysez les différences et les similitudes entre les trois personnages principaux. **
French A level essay question and A* model answer on La Haine (Mathieu Kassovitz).
You will have access to complex structures that A level students could use in their essays, guidance regarding how to write a good essay on the film, the plan I used to write my model answer and finally my model answer.
I highlighted my Points, Evidence and Explanations in different colours to help your students analyse the model answer and to show them structures they could have used alternatively (from the complex structures table).
I give the “constuire une dissertation sur La Haine” structures to my weakest students (or to the class when working on their first essay) to help them focus on their ideas more than complex structures.
The markscheme is the one from Edexcel.
Do not hesitate to follow me on Facebook.
More model answers for La Haine are available in my shop.
