I haven’t attached the twelve they have to find. You can see the list on the year 3 worksheet.

Here are few resources I have prepared for my year 6 pupils. You will find an ‘encore une fois’ speaking/reading activity (one child picks some food or a drink and the other child has to guess what his/her partner has chosen. Every time they get it wrong, they read from the start). You will also find a worksheet on food and opinions. I have also prepared a snakes and ladders board with pictures to practise saying name of food and drinks. I have also included a 5 in a 5 differentiated row board game that they can play in pairs (one with written support, one without). To help them design a food poster and sorting food into food groups, I have found some French poster. This can used as a way to recap food and drinks. Finally there is a blockbuster game (boys vs girls) with food and drinks.

I made these worksheets for my year 6 but they can be used for older pupils. The various tasks will help practise their writing skill on breakfast food and drinks. The cross-words task can be used with help or with very little help depending on your children’s ability. For my class I only added a few letters for each word and they have to work out what could be the breakfast food. There is also a battleship to practise speaking as a pair-work.

Next I show some pictures and the pupils have to work out and write down on their whiteboard the colour of the pets. There are also a ‘correct or incorrect’ and ‘choose the correct answers’ tasks. I included two differentiated reading and writing tasks where the pupils have to apply the grammatical rules with colours.

Harry Potter la couleur yeux et cheveux.

(0)
A powerpoint presentation to introduce different colours of hair and colours of eyes using different characters from Harry Potter. It can be used to recap previous learning or to introduce new vocabulary. I use slides 1, 9, 10, 11 and 12 to introduce new language. I get the children to repeat the new language (playing a repetition game against me). Then I reuse the same slides as a support for pair-work (mouthe and guess, encore une fois…etc). There is a speaking activity (nought and crosses game) where the pupils need to say the colour of hair or eyes or the hair length or style. The slide 14 is a model for a writing activity. Obviously depending on their ability or previous learning , pupils can say or write a bit more.

La Coupe du monde de football 2022

Here is a booklet (with differentiated tasks) on the Football Word Cup 2022. It gives the opportunity to recap names of countries/nationalities and the languages spoken. It also gives the opportunity to recap colours (flags) and tackles geographical and general knowledge. I have also attached the answer sheets. NB: To introduce players, I had in mind the clubs they play or played for and therefore the language they had to learn. However some football players may speak more languages e.g. Kylian Mbappe is apparently fluent in English and Spanish but has only played in France.
