Minecraft game to support KS3 students to talk about jobs and reasons for doing them.

A fun and engaging activity in which students can learn and consolidate their knowledge of talking about jobs in a fun way based on Minecraft. Students love this activity. It has engaged even the most reluctant ones especially boys. Rules. Land on a green diamond and translate the corresponding sentence from French to English and win a diamond (these are needed in minecraft to build with) Land on the horse double your next throw (the horse gives you speed) Land on the pig (gives you energy so go forwards two) Land on Creeper go back 4 Land on a chicken -the partner gives a short sentence in English and if the player who landed on the chicken can translate it in writing accurately into French then they win two diamonds (in Minecraft the chicken gives you feathers to write with) Land on the Ender dragon and lose all diamonds and your horse speed if you have it. Everytime you pass and land on start then win 4 diamonds At the end of the time given to the game the person with the most diamonds is the winner.

GCSE French foundation Edexcel photocard practice -school

Here are three planning sheets to get students to speak more spontaneously at foundation level so that they are not writing full sentences in the prep time on their CN2 form. How I use this resource. I give students time to translate the bullet points and to write key words in each square. I give them key vocab to reinforce what they constantly forget or find hard. I would then read a question that matches the bullet point (I usualy would make these up). I would then ask a student to give their answer. If the answer is good then on the smart board I write their name in the box. So if they answer describe the photo covering all parts of palms then their name goes in the first box. On each box to get their name in a box they must cover all of the prompts. I keep doing this repreatedly for about five minutes. Once all of the boxes have a name in then students can knock a student out of a box and replace it with their name. At the end of the five minutes all students with their name in the box get a house point.
