French This or That Activity - Ceci ou Cela French Icebreaker
By Love Learning Languages - French Resources
French This or That Activity - Ceci ou Cela French Icebreaker
This French ceci ou cela - this or that activity is perfect for back to school, end of the year, or anytime when everyone wants to have a little fun with French.
Use this "this or that" activity as a French speaking activity for partners or groups, as a whole-class activity you project for the entire class.
Alternatively, you can make this a moving around activity. Students start by standing in a big group. When the choices on the cards are read, they move to the side of the room that is associated with their choice (see the arrows on the cards). Those who can’t make up their mind or don’t have a preference remain in the center. Students will see all of the things that they have in common with their classmates and will likely learn some new vocabulary while they’re at it. This is a great back to school ice-breaker!
This activity requires no teacher prep once the set of cards is printed and cut out. If you don’t want to print, there’s a PDF with only one card per page that you can project and play as a whole class activity.
Included:
