French 101 Beginning French Workbook

Ideal for independent study, worksheets, notes and visuals to help students learn French.

I created this with myself as a student in mind. I remember what helped me as a French student and wanted to create something similar.

This workbook contains more than 66 pages!

Looking for a way to show your students how real daily French conversations flow? This comprehensive French lesson will have your students reading, writing, listening, and speaking. The theme of this lesson is le billet d'avion. They'll get lots of exposure to real spoken French, while working on the four skills we strive to include in every lesson.

Included:

⭐  Video in French and English

⭐  Audio in French only

⭐  Fill in the blank exercise

⭐  Transcript in French

⭐  Role play situation in English

⭐  Useful sentences + expressions

Le billet d'avion - Airline ticket

• You’ve just reserved and paid for a cheap flight online with Air France. Unfortunately, you notice that you have misspelled your name. This must be corrected or you’ll never be able to take your flight! You need to immediately call Air France and explain the situation. The employee doesn’t speak English, but together you find a solution. Your little mistake has turned into a fairly costly affair!

In the video, students will listen and read along as a typical French dialogue unfolds about un billet d'avion in France.

As students listen to the conversation, listening comprehension will improve, and they will learn lots of new vocabulary words and expressions. This is really the way French people interact, though it may never have shown up in the textbook!

The video lasts approximately two minutes, and it is easy to pause so that everyone has a chance to study the text.

The speech is not too fast in this video, and all of the words are written on the screen in French and with English translations.

The grammar in this conversation is quite varied. However, French learners at any level can learn a lot and benefit from these conversations through context. Your students will find the English translations to be most helpful, and they will see how it is nearly impossible to give direct translations from French to English.

LESSON PLAN (as you explain it to students):

Step 1: Watch the video and read along as you listen to the conversation. When you don't understand a word, just look down at the English translation. Be sure to take notes! It's ok if you don't understand all of the grammar. Just try to pay close attention to how the sentences are put together and how we do it differently in English.

Step 2: Listen to the audio recording without looking at the words and translations on the video. Do you remember what the words mean? You can use this recording to practice and fine tune your listening skills

Step 3: Print out the fill in the blank exercise, and write in the missing words as you listen to the recording. An answer key is provided. Once you have done this a few times, I challenge you to get out a blank sheet of paper and try writing it all! Just have that pause button ready!

Step 4: Read over the role play situation with a partner. Study the page with helpful French sentences and expressions, and invent your own dialogue. You can use some of what you learned in the video in your conversation!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "My students loved using this for being able to help them have conversations in class. Great resource!"

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "This was fantastic, merci! More like this please!!!!"

The holidays are an equally magical and crazy time. Why not capitalize on this excitement by squeezing in a little vocabulary enrichment and give yourself a break at the same time?
This resource includes a list of 25 Noël-themed vocabulary words in French with 10 different fun practice sheets. You can use all these versatile activities in a single instructional day or parcel them out as bell-ringers or fillers throughout the month.

Files include:

1. Vocabulary List: Kickstart the lesson with a curated list of 25 Christmas words in French. From elves and snowflakes to reindeer and the big guy, this list hits all the highlights of the season.

2. Repetition-Based Learning: Utilize the power of repetition to solidify vocabulary retention. Students will practice writing Christmas words multiple times, enhancing their memory and fluency.

3. Categorizing: Engage your students in critical thinking as they categorize their new vocabulary by grouping it into different mugs of steaming cocoa.

4. Word Jumble: Challenge your students' word recognition skills with an exciting word jumble activity.

5. Drawing and Labeling: Tap into your students' artistic side as they sketch and label their new words. This activity promotes creativity while reinforcing vocabulary and spelling.

6. Word Search: This activity enhances spelling, vocabulary recognition, and problem-solving skills.

7. Matching: Learners make connections between words and visual representations. By actively associating and pairing words and images, learners establish meaningful connections that enhance their understanding and retention of vocabulary.

8. Short Answer: Provide an opportunity for students to apply the vocabulary in meaningful ways. By constructing responses, students connect the vocabulary to specific contexts, demonstrating their understanding of how the words are used. This application helps with recall and enhances their ability to use it effectively.

9. Creative Writing: Students draw from previous language knowledge to create complete sentences relevant to the new vocabulary. This is a slightly more advanced activity that allows students to use higher-level thinking and creativity to form sentences using verb tenses and additional they are familiar with.

10. Article Practice: Reinforce grammar basics through organizing nouns by gender.

11. Code Breaker: Decoding the vocabulary is like solving a puzzle. It encourages critical thinking and problem-solving skills as learners work to match the symbols to the correct letters to form vocabulary while providing ongoing review and reinforcement.

Give YOURSELF a gift this season - Busy, Happy, and Quiet Students!

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!

• Students taking a World Language
• Middle or High School 

How can I use this product?

• Print out the reading cards (10)

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!"
