This is a really fun game to practice with your students who are learning vocabulary about EN VILLE, and it involves NO PREP. I've included both a beginner and intermediate version of the game, both in black and white and color versions. The beginner version has the words written out and the intermediate version only shows pictures. Have a look at the thumbnails to see what they look like.
This resource is also part of a money saving bundle that you are going to ♡:
En Ville - Vocabulary Speaking Activities 4-PACK: https://www.tes.com/us/teacher-lessons/bundle-and-save-en-ville-french-vocabulary-speaking-activities-and-games-3-pack-11602697
Each version includes 30 cards. Depending on class size you could either give each student more than one card or have them play with a partner. I recommend printing out and laminating these cards if possible so that you can use them over and over again.
Here's how this game works. Once each student has a card (or cards), the one who has the card that says JE COMMENCE starts the game. He says, for example, Je commence. J'ai la cheminée. Qui a la fenêtre? The person who has the card with a window on it says, J'ai la fenêtre. Qui a les rideaux?"And so the game goes on until the last card is called and that student's card will say, J'ai fini!
Another idea is to prepare two sets of cards, divide your class into two groups and let each group have a go to see which team can get through the entire deck of cards the fastest. If the vocabulary is completely new you could start out with the beginner deck and as the words become more familiar you could move on to the intermediate level. It's really a lot of fun, and though you can play with younger students the older ones love this game just as much.
This easy to play 30 minute dice game is a fun way to practice the irregular French verbs ÊTRE - ALLER - AVOIR - FAIRE in 6 different tenses:
- present tense
- passé composé
- imperfect
- futur simple
- conditional
- present subjunctive
These four verbs are the most essential and often the most difficult for students to memorize, so I like to provide many different activities to keep it fun and fresh. You can start using this game with your beginner students and continue to use it to review these verbs as you teach new tenses.
My high school students love this game, and it can get very competitive if you decide to play it as a race (details are explained with the activity).
Students divide up into teams and play a dice game, the dice determining which subject and infinitive to conjugate in the indicated tense.
Included with this activity:
How to play
Six different versions of the game with answers
Student response and scoring sheet
