Classroom management in a middle school Core French classroom can be dicey! That's why I engage my students as much as possible to keep em' on their toes! Prof du jour is a part of my everyday routine, where a different student each day is given the opportunity to lead the discussions with their peers and to give them confidence in French. Sit back and watch the magic!

This isn't just a run-of-the-mill calendar! My Prof du jour is at the command desk and interacts with their peers and the Google Slides. Here are some activities that my Grades 4, 5 and 6 students actively use found in this document:

• Complete Calendar (drag & drop icons) for SEPTEMBER 2024 - JUNE 2025.

• Weather, time of day, days of the week, and terms like "yesterday," "today," and "tomorrow."

• Two versions available: One has the Sunday start and another has the Monday start, depending on how you prefer to view your calendar with your students.

• A Wheel Decide question prompter (which you can edit by removing or adding questions your students are working on).

• An "I SPY" prompter (a favorite in ALL of my classes).

• A "GUESS WHO?" prompter.

• A Franco DJ Music activity (great for explaining why they like/dislike something with sentence starters).

In addition to the calendar: This resource provides 27 fresh and fun ideas that can be easily incorporated into your lessons, designed to give students the opportunity to step into the role of "Prof du jour" and lead their peers in interactive activities.

These activities are perfect for students in Grades 4 to 8 and will foster an engaging, positive classroom atmosphere where students feel comfortable practicing their French language skills. Whether you want to boost participation, improve active listening, or simply add some energy to your class, these ideas are versatile and adaptable to different classroom dynamics. With no prep required, they can be used spontaneously to keep students on their toes and excited to take part.

My (very) low-level middle-schoolers love learning about niche objects and concepts in Core French. I use their interests and personalities to create engaging projects that meet the outcomes. I actively use this particular project with grades 4, 5 and 6 but it could easily be used in a grade 7 or even grade 8 classrooms. If you use Pearson's Échos Pros, this works AMAZINGLY alongside "Ah oui, j'aime ça!"

This 30+ page project will prompt your discussions and activities and will provide your students with engaging, highly visual, clear and simple instructions and examples. My products are not babyish -- this is the main reason I started creating products.

You will find:

• A pre-created WheelDecide game on Bento Box food to practice the sentence structures ("Qu'est-ce que tu apporterais dans ta boîte bento?" "Dans ma boîte bento, j'apporterais...")
• A kinesthetic game: "Qu'est-ce que tu as dans ton sac à lunch?"
• 4 visual lunch bag examples for students to practice the sentence structure ("Qu'est-ce que tu as dans ton sac à lunch?" "Dans mon sac à lunch j'ai...")
• Lunch bag vocabulary - En français with images.
• 2 "Messages du jour" - with prompts for mots amis and mots familiers.
• 2 slides for explaining why we like or dislike with sentence starters.
• Criteria for final project with two options (Drawing or Collage using flyers).

My products consistently grow. Anytime I create a new activity, I modify this document so that it is always up-to-date and complete.

Enjoy!

Boost your students' vocabulary surrounding Fall and Halloween with this Make-Your-Own Bingo activity suitable for all ages and all levels of French.

This activity is a great way to have your students create their own bingo cards and then to play with them. It comes with many versions depending on your Core French groups.

1. Two versions, one with instructions in English and one with instructions in French, which prompt your students to color, cut and paste to create their bingo card.
2. Two versions, one with instructions in English and one with instructions in French, which prompt your students to create their own illustrations, cut and paste to their bingo card.

Choose the version applicable to your students' level and then they'll cut out their squares and paste them to their bingo card. Take this to the next level by laminating their cards so that they can use a dry-erase marker as a bingo dabber!

This comes with the call-out cards.

Enjoy!

This is a version that I’ve worked out the kinks on over many years of playing it in my French middle school and high school classrooms.

The answers don’t have to be given in the form of a question unless you want to play that way.

My students absolutely love this game. They get very excited about it and always look forward to reviewing for quizzes and tests on "Jeopardy Day".

What teachers like you are saying about this Jeopardy game:

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Such a great resource and a super fun  way for students to practice French verbs while feeling like they're not actually doing work!!!”

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “This game is just incredible!!! So engaging yet so educational! My Grade 7s and 8s are so addicted that I will be buying/playing A LOT of these games this year! This is am amazing resource; worth every single penny!”

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “I played this class with my Grade 10 Academic Core French class (in Canada). We used it as a test review before a big Imparfait test. They loved it! It engaged even the most reluctant of learners, as they knew they would only be in the "hot seat" briefly. The instructions were very easy to follow and use, and the sound effects were a great touch. My French students loved it so much that they now ask me before every test if our review will be Jeopardy!”
