French Activities

French Decodable activities that align with the Science of Reading in the K-2 French classroom. Students work on their phonemic awareness, phonological awareness, decoding and encoding skills and as they master the target sound.

Make a few copies of each card and insert into clear pockets to create a quick and easy reading centre; arrange a table with four copies to create a quiet reading group; use one-on-one with your students to assess reading levels, to gain insights to their decoding skills, encoding skills, and to inform your upcoming lesson plans. Students use whiteboard markers to sound out each sound in the word, each syllable, or each word in the sentence. What a great way to build confidence! Whatever way you choose to use this resource, I am so grateful that you have given this item a try!

Who can use this resource:

Teachers who are just getting accustomed to using strategies from the Science of Reading can use these simple sentence strips to open up independent practice, small group evaluation, or up on a digital screen for whole group instruction and reading practice.

Make a set and send them home with students to build fluency in reading and confidence in reading strategies.

Sentences are designed to build a number of common French sounds and get more challenging as they go on.

Correction sheet is handy for use with a substitute as they can confidently assess students and command the lesson even when they are not assured of their French skills.

Science of Reading:

These cards are aligned with sounds being taught in any Science of Reading aligned curriculum. They are set up for student success based on the research for increasing reading fluency and building student confidence in the classroom!

Once you have established the strategies for identifying sounds, initial sounds, and blending sounds, segmenting sounds, students will be able to use these self-driven sentence strips on their own. What a great way to build learning autonomy!

What grade level:

I personally use these texts with Grade 1 and Grade 2 students in French Immersion. I feel confident that students from K-3 will find these most useful and teachers can come back to the texts with any students who may be experiencing challenges in their French reading skills. Core French teachers will be sure to add the resource to their repertoire for Grades 4 to 6 as they learn to read and write at the Junior level.

Practice is what it takes when learning verb conjugations. This audio recorded drill will help students practice and master regular and irregular French verbs in the passé composé. There is a mixture of verbs that use avoir and être as helping verb, and reflexive verbs are included. This is a verb drill of 100 common French verbs that you can use either in the classroom or language lab. I've included five great ways for you to use this drill.

The audio recording you will download will be great for listening comprehension and oral production, written exercises, paired work and even a cooperative learning group writing game.

Examples:

FINIR - JE - 5 seconds to say or write answer before recorded response - J'AI FINI

SE LEVER - TU - 5 seconds to say or write answer before recorded response - TU T'ES LEVÉ(E)

DESCENDRE - IL - 5 seconds to say or write answer before recorded response - IL EST DESCENDU

PRENDRE - NOUS - 5 seconds to say or write answer before recorded response - NOUS AVONS PRIS

MANGER - VOUS - 5 seconds to say or write answer before recorded response - VOUS AVEZ MANGÉ

RÉUSSIR - ILS - 5 seconds to say or write answer before recorded response - ILS ONT RÉUSSI

During the recording the verbs are not numbered so that you can easily choose a group of 10 or 15 at any point during the exercise to use as bell ringer reviews or to get your students in French mode as they enter the classroom. Use this drill at any time during the year as an excellent review. Use it with upper level students who sometimes need to revise the basics or provide a copy to struggling students who can use it as review while riding on the bus or in the car.

Included:

• 20 minute mp3 audio recording of 100 French verbs in the passé composé
• Answer sheet
• Student response sheet
• 5 effective ways to use this verb drill

1. Language lab or classroom listening and speaking exercise

Students listen to the drill either as a class or with individual headphones on. They will hear an infinitive and subject pronoun to conjugate.Students are given five seconds to say their answer before the correct response is pronounced. The verbs are purposefully not numbered in the recording so that you can choose to do them either in or out of order. This is a listening and speaking grammar drill and writing the answers is not encouraged.

2. Language lab or classroom silent written exercise

Provide each student with a numbered answer recording sheet. Students should be reminded to pay close attention as the verbs in the recording are NOT numbered. They will hear an infinitive which they should write in the appropriate column. Next they’ll hear a subject pronoun and will be given five seconds to write their answers. Since this is a fast moving exercise you may want to give students a chance to revise their answers once the recording has stopped.

3. Whiteboard classroom activity - Individual or paired work

Have students write answers on whiteboards after they’ve heard the infinitive and

subject pronoun to be used. Pause the recording and give students five seconds to write their answers. When they’ve finished have them listen carefully and check their work when you stop pause and play the answer. This works particularly well with pairs of students because they can help each other and the work won’t seem so tedious. I often allow my pairs of students to keep track of one point per correct answer and at the end of the activity see which group has the most points.

4. Bell ringer activity

You have five or ten minutes to spare at the end of class, so why not play a sampling of the verb drill? With 100 verbs to choose from you could keep it quite varied. Also use parts of the drill as students enter the classroom to get them in French mode. I've found this to be a great way to keep kids quiet as they come in and get settled.

5. Group writing game

Chances are you have your students’ desks in some kind of rows or groups. Here’s a fun way to change up the verb drills a bit. Let’s say you have rows or groups of five students. Before starting the verb drill recording give the first person in each group a blank sheet of paper and he should have something to write with.

Number the paper 1 - 5 (or the number of students in the group) and as you play the drill the first student has to write his answer next to #1. He has to write something even if he doesn’t know exactly how to spell it. Immediately after the answer is pronounced on the recording he must pass the paper to the next person in his group. It’s important not to hesitate because the recording will continue.

Person #2 records his answer and so on until each person in the group has had a go. At this point, stop the recording and the last person in each group brings the paper back up to the first person who can look over all of the answers written by his group members. He can make any changes he wants to make to anyone’s answer BUT STUDENTS CANNOT SPEAK A WORD TO EACH OTHER.

He then passes the paper back down the row and everyone gets a chance to change either his own or another group member’s answer. They should move fast though because here’s the catch, the first group to turn in a 100% accurate paper to the teacher wins that round!

• On the second page, students identify the words they don’t know and translate them.

• On the third page, students check off things and activities that they like.

• On the fourth page, students check off things and activities that they don’t like.

• Two all French Dots & Boxes games are included.  Each player draws lines using a different color while speaking the words on either side of the lines they draw.  When they complete a box, they draw an X in the box using their color.  Once all of the boxes have been completed, count to see who has the most!

• Two Dots & Boxes games in English to be used for translating to French.  Each player draws lines using a different color while translating the words on either side of the lines they draw.

• Two Tic-Tac-Toe worksheets to encourage mastering all 48 words on the list.  Students already know how to play this game, so you won’t need to do much explaining.  Choose a square, read the word aloud, write an X or an O on the square.  The first player to get three in a row wins that round!  Each worksheet includes four Tic-Tac-Toe vocabulary games.

• Two Ceci ou Cela games are included in this vocabulary packet.  Each numbered row offers three choices.  Students read the three choices aloud and say the one that they prefer.  At the bottom of the page it says “Je préfère _____ parce que...” This is an opportunity for students to give reasons for their preferences in French!

• One writing worksheet asks students to choose five things they like and to write two reasons why they like them.  “PARCE QUE” and “CAR” are both used in each sentence so that students will get used to the idea that they are interchangeable.

• One writing worksheet asks students to choose five things they don’t like and to write two reasons why they don’t like them.  Once again, “PARCE QUE” and “CAR” are both used in each sentence.

• One paragraph writing worksheet asks students to identify four things they don’t like and to write a full paragraph about why they don’t like them.  A self-evaluation checklist is included at the bottom of the page to encourage proof-reading and to make sure students include all four of their choices, adjectives, adverbs, and articles.

• The second paragraph writing worksheet asks students to identify four things they do like and to write a full paragraph about why they like them.  The same self-evaluation checklist is included at the bottom of the page, as well as one to make sure they’ve included all of the essential elements.

• Each of the 48 speaking prompt cards includes a different word from the list of target vocabulary in this packet.  There are four cards on each page.  Just print them and cut them out.  Laminate them if possible for years of no-prep activities!  The “J’aime” ou “Je n’aime pas” theme is repeated as well as using “parce que” and “car” interchangeably.

➯ This resource is included in my Ça y est, je parle français! French 1 & 2 curriculum bundle!

The audio recording you will download will be great for listening comprehension and oral production, written exercises, paired work and even a cooperative learning group writing game.

Example:

FINIR - TO FINISH - JE - 5 seconds to say or write answer before recorded response - J'AI FINI

ATTENDRE - TO WAIT - TU - 5 seconds to say or write answer before recorded response - TU AS ATTENDU

VENDRE - TO SELL - IL - 5 seconds to say or write answer before recorded response - IL A VENDU

ABOLIR - TO ABOLISH - NOUS - 5 seconds to say or write answer before recorded response - NOUS AVONS ABOLI

MANGER - TO EAT - VOUS - 5 seconds to say or write answer before recorded response - VOUS AVEZ MANGÉ

RÉUSSIR - TO SUCCEED - ILS - 5 seconds to say or write answer before recorded response - ILS ONT RÉUSSI

During the recording the verbs are not numbered so that you can easily choose a group of 10 or 15 at any point during the exercise to use as bell ringer reviews or to get your students in French mode as they enter the classroom. Use this drill at any time during the year as an excellent review. Use it with upper level students who sometimes need to revise the basics or provide a copy to struggling students who can use it as review while riding on the bus or in the car.

Included:

• 17 minute mp3 audio recording of 100 regular French verbs in the passé composé.
• Answer sheet
• Student response sheet
• 5 effective ways to use this verb drill

1. Language lab or classroom listening and speaking exercise

Students listen to the drill either as a class or with individual headphones on. They will hear an infinitive and subject pronoun to conjugate.Students are given five seconds to say their answer before the correct response is pronounced. The verbs are purposefully not numbered in the recording so that you can choose to do them either in or out of order. This is a listening and speaking grammar drill and writing the answers is not encouraged.

2. Language lab or classroom silent written exercise

Provide each student with a numbered answer recording sheet. Students should be reminded to pay close attention as the verbs in the recording are NOT numbered. They will hear an infinitive which they should write in the appropriate column. Next they’ll hear a subject pronoun and will be given five seconds to write their answers. Since this is a fast moving exercise you may want to give students a chance to revise their answers once the recording has stopped.

3. Whiteboard classroom activity - Individual or paired work

Have students write answers on whiteboards after they’ve heard the infinitive and

subject pronoun to be used. Pause the recording and give students five seconds to write their answers. When they’ve finished have them listen carefully and check their work when you stop pause and play the answer. This works particularly well with pairs of students because they can help each other and the work won’t seem so tedious. I often allow my pairs of students to keep track of one point per correct answer and at the end of the activity see which group has the most points.

4. Bell ringer activity

You have five or ten minutes to spare at the end of class, so why not play a sampling of the verb drill? With 100 verbs to choose from you could keep it quite varied. Also use parts of the drill as students enter the classroom to get them in French mode. I've found this to be a great way to keep kids quiet as they come in and get settled.

5. Group writing game

Chances are you have your students’ desks in some kind of rows or groups. Here’s a fun way to change up the verb drills a bit. Let’s say you have rows or groups of five students. Before starting the verb drill recording give the first person in each group a blank sheet of paper and he should have something to write with.

Number the paper 1 - 5 (or the number of students in the group) and as you play the drill the first student has to write his answer next to #1. He has to write something even if he doesn’t know exactly how to spell it. Immediately after the answer is pronounced on the recording he must pass the paper to the next person in his group. It’s important not to hesitate because the recording will continue.

Person #2 records his answer and so on until each person in the group has had a go. At this point, stop the recording and the last person in each group brings the paper back up to the first person who can look over all of the answers written by his group members. He can make any changes he wants to make to anyone’s answer BUT STUDENTS CANNOT SPEAK A WORD TO EACH OTHER.

He then passes the paper back down the row and everyone gets a chance to change either his own or another group member’s answer. They should move fast though because here’s the catch, the first group to turn in a 100% accurate paper to the teacher wins that round!

This is a set of 20 advanced level French dictées. These dictations are short dialogues between two people, read by François, a native Parisian. The dialogues are read slowly first and then even more slowly to give students time to write them down. Punctuation and links (liaisons) between words are pronounced.

⭐ First reading:   Moderate pace, don’t write yet

⭐ Second reading:  Slow pace, listen and write

⭐ Third reading:  Normal pace, check your work

Have your students equipped with a pen and paper and give them plenty of time to check their work. On the third reading, the dialogues are read at full speed with proper spoken French intonation at the end of each dictation exercise. Students should pay close attention to spelling, gender, plurals and agreements when writing.

Play these exercises in class with a group and self check, use them for assessment, or you can even assign them as homework.

Students can practice repeating the sentences for correct pronunciation.  They can even record themselves and compare their pronunciation or work as a group role play.

Sample dictation:

Femme parlant à son mar​i:

Chéri, tu n'aurais pas dû prendre cette route ! Tu sais bien qu'il y a toujours des bouchons par ici à cette heure-ci.

Homme​:

Nous n'avions pas vraiment le choix, les routiers bloquent toutes les autoroutes autour de Paris.

Included:

➯ Audio presentation of the dictées - M4A

➯ Instructions - PDF

➯ Numbered answer key with English translations - PDF

➯ Numbered student response sheet located below the answer keys in the PDF

"Dictation is the transcription of spoken text: one person who is "dictating" speaks and another who is "taking dictation" writes down the words as they are spoken. Among speakers of several languages, dictation is used as a test of language skill, similar to spelling bees in the English-speaking world."

Are you looking for engaging ways to teach French food and drinks vocabulary? This French vocabulary packet will have your students reading, writing, listening and speaking!  15 different activities including games, writing, and speaking activities are included. Check out the preview for ALL of the details on what's included in this engaging French Food - La Nourriture unit. This packet is perfect for beginning students!

22 pages of worksheets and 48 speaking prompt cards are included.

48 words are included in this French nourriture vocabulary packet.  4 pages are dedicated to identifying words students know and don’t know, and deciding which food and drinks they like and don’t like (see list of words in the preview).

• On the first page, all of the words are listed. Students simply check off the words on the list that they recognize.

• On the second page, students identify the words they don’t know and translate them.

• On the third page, students check off things and activities that they like.

• On the fourth page, students check off things and activities that they don’t like.

14 games are included for maximum exposure to all 48 words on the list.  Students will master all of the words before beginning the writing and speaking activities included in this packet.

• Two all French Dots & Boxes games are included.  Each player draws lines using a different color while speaking the words on either side of the lines they draw.  When they complete a box, they draw an X in the box using their color.  Once all of the boxes have been completed, count to see who has the most!

• Two Dots & Boxes games in English to be used for translating to French.  Each player draws lines using a different color while translating the words on either side of the lines they draw.

• Two Tic-Tac-Toe worksheets to encourage mastering all 48 words on the list.  Students already know how to play this game, so you won’t need to do much explaining.  Choose a square, read the word aloud, write an X or an O on the square.  The first player to get three in a row wins that round!  Each worksheet includes four Tic-Tac-Toe vocabulary games.

• Two Ceci ou Cela games are included in this vocabulary packet.  Each numbered row offers three choices.  Students read the three choices aloud and say the one that they prefer.  At the bottom of the page it says “Je préfère _____ parce que...” This is an opportunity for students to give reasons for their preferences in French! 

• Six different Bataille Navale games will have your students speaking in complete sentences in French using the target vocabulary with “J’aime” or “Je n’aime pas” as starters.  This is an excellent way to prep for the upcoming writing and speaking activities!

4 writing activities following the “J’aime” or “Je n’aime pas” theme, and 48 speaking prompt cards are included.

• One writing worksheet asks students to choose five things they like and to write two reasons why they like them.  “PARCE QUE” and “CAR” are both used in each sentence so that students will get used to the idea that they are interchangeable.

• One writing worksheet asks students to choose five things they don’t like and to write two reasons why they don’t like them.  Once again, “PARCE QUE” and “CAR” are both used in each sentence.

• One paragraph writing worksheet asks students to identify four things they don’t like and to write a full paragraph about why they don’t like them.  A self-evaluation checklist is included at the bottom of the page to encourage proof-reading and to make sure students include all four of their choices, adjectives, adverbs, and articles.

• The second paragraph writing worksheet asks students to identify four things they do like and to write a full paragraph about why they like them.  The same self-evaluation checklist is included at the bottom of the page, as well as one to make sure they’ve included all of the essential elements.

• Each of the 48 speaking prompt cards includes a different word from the list of target vocabulary in this packet.  There are four cards on each page.  Just print them and cut them out.  Laminate them if possible for years of no-prep activities!  The “J’aime” ou “Je n’aime pas” theme is repeated as well as using “parce que” and “car” interchangeably.

Also available:

• French Clothing Vocabulary Writing and Speaking Activities Packet
• French Varied Vocabulary Writing and Speaking Games and Activities Packet
• French Irregular Verbs Worksheet Packet - 50 Irregular French Verbs

Practice French using pronouns in context - Advanced level activity

This is a three part French lesson for upper - intermediate to advanced level students that will assess three different skills: listening, reading, and choosing grammatically correct pronouns in a given context. It is a good idea to wait and have students check their answers once all three steps of this activity have been completed. Once the whole activity has been completed, they may want to go back and change some of their answers before checking them against the answer key. This activity is more challenging than a typical series of sentences pulled out of context. Students will really need to follow the story in order to use the correct pronouns.

This text is written in many different tenses. The pronouns used in this text are as follows:

• Direct object pronouns
• Indirect object pronouns
• Y and EN
• Reflexive pronouns
• Relative pronouns
• Relative composed pronouns
• Possessive pronouns

Included:

• Lesson plan
• Audio recording - Comprehension questions - 8.5 minutes
• Written copy - Comprehension questions - 2 pages - 32 questions
• Audio recording - Le dîner de Stéphane - 3.5 minutes
• Written text - Le dîner de Stéphane - 2 pages
• Multiple choice exercise - Le dîner de Stéphane - 5 pages
• Fill in the blanks exercise - Le dîner de Stéphane - 2 pages
• Answer keys

Step 1: Listening comprehension

1. Before having students listen to the reading, be sure to have them listen to the audio recording of the comprehension questions to know what to be listening for in the reading. I am including a written copy of the comprehension questions in case your students feel stuck and really can’t understand.

2. Have students listen to the reading once without trying to answer the questions.

3. Pause and replay the parts of the recording they didn’t understand, and remember that many pronouns are being used. They will need to pay very close attention to context. Tell them they'll have an opportunity to change their answers if they want to in the next step.

4. Have them listen to recording of the comprehension questions again, one question at a time. They should try to answer as many of them as they can, and don’t hesitate to go back to the reading to listen again for details.

Step 2: Reading comprehension

1. Students read the text all the way through, then go back and have a look at their answers to the comprehension questions. They can listen to them again if needed.

Step 3: Pronouns exercise

1. Complete the multiple choice exercise.

2. Once they’ve finished the multiple choice activity you can give them a final challenge and have them complete the fill in the blank exercise.

3. Now it’s time for students to check all of their answers using the answer keys provided.

100 Common French Expressions

Common French expressions, interjections, and sentence starters are a great way to spice up conversations, increase vocabulary, and sound more French. The grammar in these expressions is varied, so this resource is fine for all levels (even beginners).

The idea is to not worry about WHY things are said this way in French, but instead to encourage our students to accept it and memorize these 100 short expressions, interjections, and sentence starters. My students have a lot of fun using these!

All of the words and expressions are spoken slowly, and students are given time to repeat them aloud. English translations are included for all 100 expressions on the video recording. Students will notice that the English versions are almost never direct translations, which is interesting to note! An audio recording is included so you can share this to have your students practice almost anywhere (even on the way to school)!

Included:

1. Video recording with all 100 expressions written in French and English - 18 minutes
2. Audio recording for listening comprehension and pronunciation practice - 18 minutes
3. Set of 100 practice cards to print, cut out, and use over and over again

How to use the set of practice cards:

Have students print and cut out the set of 100 French expressions cards, and hook them together with a ring. Expressions are written in French at the top, and in English at the bottom. As they practice and master these expressions by using the video and audio recordings, they can test themselves frequently with the stack of cards. When they feel confident with a word or French expression, they can take a pair of scissors and CUT OFF THE ENGLISH translation on the dotted line. They'll eventually have a handy set of French only cards to pull out any time they'd like to review.

What teachers are saying about this lesson:

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "The students appreciated the clarity and slower speech. It was a great activity to provide some formative assessment for my students."

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "This was an awesome resource that was perfect for what I needed. Students felt a little overwhelmed at first but they got the hang of it and did great. They felt very accomplished at the end. I used the dictation and gave it to students who were struggling and I gave the challenging listening to students who need a little challenge - so it was GREAT for differentiation."

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "What a wonderful listening comprehension activity/test! Loved having the questions read and the choice of using short answer or T/F! "

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "A great activity that we don't get to do (practice) very often. Unique and helpful."

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "The pace of the speaking in these activities is perfect for my students!!"

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "It's difficult to find authentic resources like this. Thank you for providing one!"

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Kids found this very challenging but it was so practical and a great real life connection."

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐. "Good authentic listening activity for my travel unit!"

Use French fortune tellers to have students practice conjugating regular and irregular verbs in the present tense in a fun and different way. Your students already love them, and fortune tellers are a perfect activity for reviewing French verb conjugations at any time of the year!

This growing bundle saves you 50%, and many more verbs will be added at no additional cost to you. Be sure to follow my store and keep an eye on TeachShare notifications for updates. Check out the preview to see all of the verbs that are included.

Each verb fortune teller includes:

• 1 fortune teller
• Instructions on how to use the activity
• Instructions on how to fold the paper

➯ These activities are included in my BIG Fortune Teller Growing Bundle which includes other tenses, other verbs, and themed vocabulary.

What teachers are saying about my French fortune tellers:

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “I had created a Google Classroom project that had a quiz at the end.  Students were all at different phases of the project and I needed something related that early finishers who had already taken the quiz could do so that their classmates could continue their work.  This was absolutely perfect.  My students had a really good time with this project.  I highly recommend this as a way to have students use a hands-on creative project to complete.  I have a lot of ideas moving forward of how I can create activities using the fortune tellers.  This is a lovely tool with many potential uses.”

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “The students loved creating their own fortune tellers and practicing conjugations with their classmates. This is a great resource!”

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “This is a great resource for review purposes or 'game day'! Also good to be used as a supply lesson plan so that students have an engaging activity for a non-French supply teacher.”

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Fun manipulative for encouraging target language!”
