• Each card contains a vocabulary word and picture as a visual aid.

• There are 9 terms on the conversation cards as well as the slides.

How to Use:

(See embedded video in slide as well.)

Bell Ringers - Daily Journals for French class.

1. Day 1:  Show them the presentation and model for them.

2. Day 2: 

3. Print, copy, and have them ready for students as they walk in.

4. Saving on paper? Copy machine never works? Download the slide as a png and have students write on them on a touchscreen device or their own papers. My students use the app Chrome Canvas on their Chromebooks. I loan styluses to students during class. They aren’t too expensive. Some students just write with their fingers. (Please see my terms of use for using digital downloads.)

5. Day 2: Discuss the responses as a class. If you need to repeat Day 1 for the talking part for a few days, that’s okay. They will get it.

6. Days 3-5: Continue discussing responses after the journal each day. This will help them with writing and speaking.

7. Days 6 and on (or when you know they are ready): When used consistently, students will be able to speak with the phrases very quickly. Have them sit in groups and discuss their journals as you walk around the room. I often keep track of points on Class Dojo and give them a goal to shoot for.

8. Scaffold so that students will be able to talk without the journal eventually.

9. Use the words and phrases that they have learned in other activities.

10. Add the questions and answers to write stories as a class or individually. I tell students to include the day, date, weather, etc. in all of their stories.

11. Ask students what another student said work on other perspectives, i.e. I, you, he, she, etc. 

12. Student A: Je me sens triste.

13. Student B: Elle dit, «Je me sens triste.» or «Elle se sent triste.»

For Conversation:

1. Day 1:  Show them the presentation and model for them.

2. Every day: Start with the journal at the beginning of each period. I usually do this for a few weeks. It will help with the conversation cards.

3. Day 2: Discuss the responses as a class.

4. Scaffold - Gradually, have students talk without the aid of the journal. I generally let students use their journals for 2 or 3 weeks, depending on the level, before having them talk without their work in front of them.

5. Slide 13 - Ask, Ask, Trade- Each student gets a card and switches cards throughout the activity to practice various types of weather.. 

6. Student A: «Comment est-ce que tu te sens?» (Or teach the formal «Comment est-ce que vous vous sentez?» (This could be on the board in front  so students can refer back to it as they learn it.)

7. Student B (who has a happy face): , “Je me sens heureux.” or “heureuse.”  Then Student B asks: “Comment est-ce que tu te sens?”

8. Student A (who has a sad card): “Je me sens triste.”

9. Students A and B exchange cards and find new partners.

10. During Ask, Ask, Trade- After students have had more practice with the cards, have them tell new partners what previous partners said. (Ex: Je me sens triste mais Sarah se sens grincheuse.)

11. Win, Lose, or Draw: Draw a conversation card from a pile. Draw it on the board and class guesses. Students or the teacher can draw.

12. Aïe! Game Instructions are included when slides are in “edit” mode.

Need a fun way to start the year in World Language class?  How about a team-building  game!  This reading about why students should learn another language goes from dull to exciting as students work together and move around the room to solve a mystery!  This is a simple “print and go” with no work for the teacher!  This is a great way to get the year started with new students, or to provide motivation when you see interest and effort waning.  This activity is in English, and can be used by any World Language class!

All World Language teachers want to motivate and encourage our students, and help them see the value of becoming proficient in the language they’re studying. This story gives 10 teen-friendly reasons why it’s so beneficial to prioritize learning a new language! 

The story revolves around two teens trying to decide what classes to take.  Your students play the role of the mystery solvers.  They have to read all 10 parts of the story to figure out the answer to the final question;  what will the students grow up to be in their career?   While your students read the story parts, they are looking for “code words” in the story.  Students record the code words on a special answer sheet that will eventually lead them to solving the mystery of teens’  future career.  It’s so much fun! 

After, you can decide which of the 4 follow-up activities you want to do with your students.  There are 4; a True or False Activity to check for basic comprehension, a “tell me in your own words” summary activity, an opportunity to work with a group and write a story about a adventure the teens will have in their career (which can be done in the TL),  and an activity where they can explore possible careers for bilingual people.   Answer key to the True/False is also included.  Best of all?  If there’s something you’d like to change for your students, you are free to edit!

Who can use this product?

• Students taking a World Language
• Middle or High School 

How can I use this product?

• Print out the reading cards (10)
• Hang them up around your room
• Print and copy the answer sheet
• Let students loose to solve the crime! 
• Assign follow-up activities if you wish

What’s included in this product?

• Everything!  No prep beyond print and photocopy!
• Teacher instructions and hints
• 10 reading cards
• Student instructions (in English)
• Student answer sheet
• Answer Key for the code word questions and answer trail
• True/False Comprehension Activity
• Answer Key to True/False
• Summarize in your own words activity
• Writing Follow-up: Tell about a future adventure
• Research jobs for bilingual people

This no-prep, self-grading French digital game will allow your students to practice choosing between un, une, des, de and d'. Each sentence contains a fairly basic French vocabulary word (classroom supplies or food) or a word that has an adjective to help students determine the gender of the noun and they will need to choose un, une, des, or de/d'. If they choose correctly, they continue along the path. But an incorrect answer will send them back to redo that section!

Includes a Google drive, PowerPoint and PDF version of the game. Share with students as an individual assignment or work through the activity as a class on a smartboard.

If you enjoy these digital games, you might be interested in the Growing Bundle. Buy early = pay less. You will receive action to new vocabulary and grammar games as they are added. Don't see a topic you'd like to use? Drop me an e-mail at Heather@Frenchified.com with your request!

30 DIFFERENT AWARDS! This resource is a great way to end the year and to acknowledge each student for their unique abilities. The best part of being in a CI classroom is the community it builds. Choose the awards yourself or have the students vote using the Google Form for Student Voting. Each award has the French feminine and masculine forms. The awards can be applied to French class or simply observations about students in other areas of their lives. Let the students know that they have been seen for more than what is going on while they are in your room.

Note: The award for proficiency levels progressed is an award that I, as the teacher, would give but if you feel like students are able to give it, you can leave it on the google form. The google form can be edited and it is not necessary to give every award.

The slides are in both full sheet form as well as half sheets (with the feminine and masculine forms on the same slide) to save paper. All pictures are in black and white and look great on colored paper.
