A French only version is included.

This classic game is simple to modify and use both with beginners French students and advanced French students. I've used Taboo games in the classroom for years and it's always a hit. I've made my own cards with carefully chosen taboo words!

Step 2

Beginner students should be allowed to use the TABOO words printed on the cards. This will encourage them to use new vocabulary and will help them in forming sentences to use as clues.

• Make teams of 2 or 3 students
• Set a guessing time, 2 or 3 minutes or alternate turns
• One team names a first reader the opposing team a checker - whose role is to make sure no taboo words are used.
• The reader tries to have his teammates guess the word at the top without using the taboo words. For beginners you can choose to let them use the taboo words
• They score a point for each word guessed

Your French students need to practice verbs that use être in the passé composé, you need an easy and no-prep activity that will keep them engaged and having fun while learning the Vandertramp verbs. Look no further! Students already know how to play "rock, paper, scissors" in English, so why not have some fun with "pierre, feuille, ciseaux" while mastering verb conjugations in your French classroom?

Check out my money saving bundle for more games like these!

Besides loving that your students will be engaged in this highly interactive activity, you'll quickly come to appreciate that you can use these games across many levels with any tense that meets your needs!

Students play in pairs. They play quick games of "pierre, feuille, ciseaux" to see who will be able to move forward a certain number of spaces on the game board.

The following sentences are written in French on the game board, and it’s fun way to get them speaking more French during the game if they say them when they win:

⭐ La pierre écrase les ciseaux.

⭐ La feuille enveloppe la pierre.

⭐ Les ciseaux découpent la feuille.

When a student lands on a space, he conjugates and translates the verb written on it using the subject pronoun provided. Winning is easy, as long as you're the first one to reach la fin!

Included with this resource:

► Instructions on how to play

► 4 different versions of the game

The instructions are written in English, so this will be an easy activity for you to leave for a non-French speaking substitute teacher on days when you can't be there.

What makes these games work so well in the French classroom?

⭐ An engaging way to practice common irregular verbs

⭐ Students love that it’s highly interactive
