Here are a couple of worksheets on fruit (label the fruit) and writing short sentences. You will also find a speaking task (guess your partner’s choice for each opinion).

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.

Two differentiated booklets on French food and drinks. There is plenty of visual and written support for lower ability children and more challenging tasks for higher ability pupils. The booklet starts with two easy tasks of labelling the pictures and a wordsearch then gradually becomes more challenging as the children get to extend their writing skills. There is also an opportunity for the children to revise numbers and use them with food or drinks. I have also added differentiated reading tasks (for instance correct the wrong statements, read the paragraphs and answer the questions, a code to crack and a task on breakfast in different countries)

I prepared these resources for my year 6 primary children who find learning the French Alphabet a bit challenging. First slide goes through the sound of each letter while singing. The second task is a listening task where the children have to listen and circle the correct letter. Third task is another listening task where the pupils have to listen and write the correct missing letters. The last task is reading/ writing/ cultural task where the letters have been replaced by their sound and the pupils have to work out the names of famous French people/ brands. Then they have to link the name with correct pictures. Finally I made another worksheet where they have to work out the names of celebrities/ football players.

Here is a powerpoint to teach hobbies/leisure. It’s an old presentation but you can change some of the picture to modernise it.

Here is presentation to recap some aches/illness in French and suggest some solutions.

This quiz contains 43 questions on French historical figures, landmarks, fashion brands, culture…etc. For each question there is choice of three or more answers. I have used it with my year 6 but it can be used with older pupils e.g. ks3 and ks4. I have also attached the answers sheet.

Here is a range of activities for pupils to practise the future tense. The activities are all related to the holiday topic. I prepared three differentiated tasks. I made a fairly easy one to use for the lower ability pupils focusing mainly on the first person of the singular. The other two sets of cards have more challenging vocabulary (countries, leisure, time expressions, various pronouns and expressing a few opinions). These speaking tasks would suit year 10/11 who needs to practise their oral. It can also support them for writing about their future holidays by modelling correct use of future tense. The speaking tasks are to be used in pairs or in a group (one pupil shows the card, he/she hides one sentence and the others have to translate it in the other language).The quickest pupils to translate it correctly wins the card, at the end they count who has the most cards. After several speaking practices, pupils work on the worksheet (two different levels). I have also attached the correct answers for the writing tasks.

Here is a range of resources to practise common French words and short sentences. They can be used as a recap or to introduce French to new learners. There are a card game and a snakes and ladders game to practise speaking. There is a worksheet with differentiated tasks (the first two are for LA and the last two can be used for MA or HA children). Finally I made a powerpoint with audio recording (can be deleted) to listen to the sound of these common words/expressions. There is a slide on some French sounds and children have to list the words that have these sounds.

A powerpoint presentation to practise the basics ‘je m’appelle’ with famous historical figures. It also teaches how to use ‘il or elle s’appelle’ and ‘ils or elles s’appellent’ when introducing other people. You will also find two worksheets to practise using them correctly.

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.

Here are various resources linked to the King Charles III’s. The first powerpoint contains some challenging language but it goes a worksheet (cut strips of paper and match the French paragraphs with the English ones) in order to help the pupils understand tricky language. Linked to this powerpoint is an easier translation task. The pupils have to work out the meaning of key vocabulary and label the pictures with the correct French word. The second powerpoint only has key words to practise. I get them to choose 4 or 6 key words from the last slide and play bingo. Linked to this simplified powerpoint, I have attached a wordsearch and simple cross-words. There are two differentiated reading tasks (royal family, colour of hair, eyes, family relation and age) and a very simple on King Charles and pets/animals. Pupils will have to fill in the missing words.

A worksheet to go alongside the powerpoint ‘comment tu t’appelles ? Comment s’appelle-t-elle/il?’ using famous historical figures or paintings. Opportunity to test children’s cultural knowledge.

A worksheet to practise writing and reading skills (differentiatied tasks) on breakfast food and drinks. I have used ‘je voudrais’ instead of ‘je mange’ and ‘je bois’. I usually prepare my year 6 for a French residential and I like to get them ready at communicating in French independently. My resource focuses on ordering food and drinks.

This is a powerpoint I made last year during lockdown when my primary children were working from home.There is an audio recording (French native speaker) for the key vocabulary which is ideal if you are not confident at French but have to teach it. Obviously you can get rid of it, if you want to. To make sure the lesson catered for all abilities, I kept it simple and use repetition a lot to drill key vocab. There are a couple of differentiated reading and writing tasks at the end.

Here is a powerpoint I prepare to recap/ introduce gradually numbers 1 to 100. It aims at practising saying, reading and writing prices in euros. Prior to this lesson I taught various food and drinks and wanted to reuse this topic to learn how to say prices in euros. The first few slides aim at recaping numbers. From slide 5 I introduce how to say prices with decimals and want the children to write on their whiteboard or the attached worksheet the prices in words. There is plenty of written on each slide to help the pupil write the words correctly. From slides 9 I want the pupils to guess the prices of essential items (speaking), I can only help them by telling them ‘plus eleve’/ ‘inferieur’ or ‘plus bas’ /‘superieur’ . From slide 17 the pupils have to read the words and write the prices in words.Then I introduce numbers 70 to 100. From slide 25, pupils have to write prices in words and then from slide 30 they have to write the prices as a number.On the next slides I introduce the Euro coins and bank notes.

Two Powerpoint presentations (one with an audio recording by a native French speaker and one without) to help you teach and practise the Halloween vocabulary. You will also find two diffrentiated worksheets to practise reading and writing skills. I have also included a slide on some French phonemes.

Few worksheets with differentiated tasks to practise using adjectives to describe ourselves. I used resources from Bruno Guillemin to introduce some of the vocabulary. These worksheets would suit well primary aged children (year 3 to year 6) and lower ability secondary children (year 7).

Here are a powerpoint presentation on family and a worksheet on pets. The powerpoint can be used as a recap of family members names or an introduction to the topic ‘la famille’.I haven’t changed any of the characters names as pupils have most likely read the books or seen the films in English and won’t know their names in French. To tackle grammar I use three colours (blue for masculine nouns, red for feminine nous and green for plural). I also use these three colours for the different pronouns e.g. il, elle, ils and elles. I have included a writing task to go along the presentation (slide 16) so that the pupils have to read and listen carefully while the presentation is being played. The powerpoint includes differentiated writing and reading tasks (gap-fills, translation, true or false and spot the grammatical errors). The slides 22 to 27 show the answers. The worksheet can be used as a recap task on pets.

Here is a task I made for my end of the year lessons. You have to cut the pictures, the description and the names and the children have to match them after reading the description. It is in English as the language would be too complex for my primary children. This can be used as an end of year task.
