This 80+ page, highly visual, very engaging resource has everything you could possibly need to effectively teach - and reach - your low-level middle schoolers who crave games, interaction and movement to keep them interested in learning a new language.

This 76-page (it keeps growing) document has you covered for your next Core French unit. As with all of my Core French products, this resource is designed for a low-level FSL classroom but generates high engagement and interest for your "big" kids. My products work best for low-level Core French groups from grades 4-9.

This document is packed with all games, activities, drawing lessons, puzzles, speaking activities, writing activities and reading activities to REALLY get your students to open up and want to participate. It's differentiated (with potential activities for a variety of learners), and I provide guidance, links and suggestions so it runs smoothly.

Here are the goodies you'll find in here:

• Recap on location prepositions (sur, sous, à gauche, à droite).
• "Dessinons une pizza!" (a step-by-step guide to practice following directions related to location prepositions).

• A matching game.

This 64-page resource will provide you with ample activities, games and subject matter for roughly 2 weeks (or more) of Core French at the grades 5-7 level. As with all of my Core French material, the vocabulary and sentence structure is VERY beginner and some English is used on the worksheets to help them understand the tasks.

I was tired of seeing the same babyish activities and content for Middle School Core French so I listened to them and their interests. Ta-da!

In this document, you'll find:

• Basic vocabulary introduction to Space,
• Message du matin on "Ma planète préférée",
• Quick class survey on "Ma planète préférée",
• A listening activity on "quel temps fait-il dans l'espace?" for all 8 planets with a fill-in-the-blanks activity to keep their attention,

• A game: "Toucher l'image" with the 8 planets (whole group activity),
• A cut & paste activity on our solar system,
• An activity for students to research planets and to colour in a template,
• An activity for students to invent their own planet,
• Mots-cachés espace,

• My Food Truck
• My Bento Box
• Celebrity Trivia
• Cache-Cache Numérique

Students embark on an interactive, digital journey, clicking to find hidden characters within traditional themes like weather, food, and more. Through trial and error, they enhance oral and physical skills in a fun-filled, immersive experience.

• Step into a world of immersive Core French learning with our animated and interactive game-based resource! This 99-page dynamic resource brings themes like weather, food, clothing, seasons, school, Starbucks ordering, planets, and park settings to life. Students will embark on 18 captivating journeys where they actively participate in the learning process.

• The game's innovative approach involves a trial and error method, encouraging students to orally and physically engage with the material. Characters are strategically hidden within the slides, creating an exciting challenge for students to uncover them by clicking on the correct hiding spot. This interactive feature not only reinforces language skills but also enhances critical thinking and deductive reasoning.

• As students explore these thematic scenarios, they absorb vocabulary, practice pronunciation, and reinforce their understanding of Core French concepts. The visually appealing and animated nature of the resource keeps learners thoroughly engaged, making language acquisition a thrilling adventure.

• Designed for both enjoyment and educational effectiveness, our game-based product transforms language learning into a lively experience. With traditional themes seamlessly integrated into this interactive platform, students not only build linguistic competence but also gain cultural insights. Elevate your Core French curriculum with this innovative and entertaining teaching resource!

Each theme has multiple rounds, and multiple games with at least five different hiding spaces.

The themes included in this game package:

• Winter (L'hiver)
• Clothing (Les vêtements)
• School (L'école)
• Food (La nourriture)
• Weather (La météo)
• Planets (Les planètes)
• At the park (Au parc)
• Starbucks ordering

It includes all of the cache-cache games from my store, including those within other documents.

My Grades 5 & 6 Core Kids are low - this product could work for your kids anywhere from Grades 4 to 8 - depending on the vocabulary, themes, strands and outcomes you're working on. If you're teaching Immersion, this could work for French Grades 1-3.

As with all of my products, my brain doesn't shut off and any improvements or additions I make to my documents become immediately available to you as they are shared within your Google Drive. On that note, send me an email if you have a theme you'd like me to add to this set.

If you're on the hunt for more game-based learning and project-based learning for your hard-to-reach, hard-to-impress middle-schoolers, have no fear! I've got a bundle with all of it right here.

Here are some others for you to check out!
