Back to School Icebreaker: All About Me Fun Frames Writing Activity will get your students writing details about themselves on a fun printable, and participating in discussions with other students. There are five printables included with this packet:
The first two printables include All About Me questions. There is a template for a girl and a template for a boy. Students can answer the questions and color in the printables as they wish. You can then display the printables your students have created on the classroom wall.
The second two printables are frames-only pages with the labels removed that you can use to enter your own questions for your students to answer. Students can color in the printables when they have finished answering the questions you supply them.
The final printable is a coloring page based on the question-and-answer printables. This page is available if you want to give students a fun coloring activity without having them use their question-and-answer printables. Students can color in their printables and then include them in their school binders or paste them into their interactive notebooks.

Hide and Speak - A Spring French Vocabulary Game is a fun way for your students to review spring vocabulary words while getting up and away from their desks.
Instructions:
1. Print, cut and laminate the different problem cards, using as many cards as you'd like. You can either glue popsicle sticks to them or/and punch holes through them and use yarn or string to hang them up.
2. Place the cards in various spots around your classroom, or go outside and place them in different locations in the yard or playground.
3. Give each student a pencil and a grid to record his or her answers. Your students might also bring along clipboards so that they have something hard to write on.
4. The students will walk or run around the room or yard to where the cards are hidden. When they find a card, they will see what its card number is, translate the word, say it out loud and record their answer next to the corresponding card number on the grid.
5. You can play that the first student who answers all of the questions is the winner of the game, or (even better) you can play where everyone who finishes the game and answers all of the questions correctly is a winner.
6. If you wish, when your students have the complete set of words answered on their grids, you can reward them with a treat of some sort.
There are three versions of this game: French to English, English to French and there is also a blank set of cards in case you want to practice different spring vocabulary words that are not listed.
