Everyone loves a good game of BATTLESHIP, and the French classroom is a better place than any! You can use this classic game format to practice forming the PRESENT TENSE of REFLEXIVE VERBS. This resource includes 40 verbs. There are regular verbs and irregular verbs to practice with. ⇒This resource is included in my French 2 grammar, vocabulary, task cards, games and activities GROWING BUNDLE

. Do your students ♡♡ Bataille Navale Games? Save big with my GROWING BUNDLE!
This resource includes 5 versions of the game with both black and white and color copies and instructions on how to play. All battleship games are also sold separately for $4 each. Check out my collection of BATAILLE NAVALE games!
Just print out one page of the version you want to use per student. Students place boats (which are squares on the game sheets that they will have darkened with a pencil) on the game board. Students play against each other to try to find and eventually sink their opponent’s boats. This game is also part of my Reflexive Verbs BUNDLE - $ SAVER
Subject pronouns are written in the vertical column and infinitives are written in the boxes at the top. To choose a square, the player must say the subject and correct verb form in the present tense. All of the vocabulary they’ll need is written right on the game sheet and it is all in French. Each game sheet includes two battleship grids and a line separating the two. Students can fold the paper on the line if they want to. One of the grids is for a player to place his boats and the other is to mark and keep track of his opponent. You and your students may also enjoy my collection of reflexive verb resources sold separately.

French Halloween game - Taboo Speaking game - L'Halloween Français
By Love Learning Languages - French Resources
Teaching French Halloween vocabulary? Looking for an engaging way to get your French students to build their communication skills and vocabulary? Taboo is a fun French speaking and listening game where one student has to guess a word based on clues given in French by other students. The catch is that they cannot mention anything that is included in a list of taboo words.
To get your students speaking even more about Halloween, try out my French Speaking Activity - Halloween - 30 French Speaking Prompts.
All of the words on each card are written in French and English. This is very useful as many of the words will be new to students whether they are beginners or very advanced. You can easily modify this game to play it with all levels! You are going to love hearing your students speaking in French to each other about Halloween.
Try out a free full version Taboo Game - Pays et Villes
French Taboo Games Growing Bundle
Classic French Taboo Games Bundle - 3 Versions
Click here for details, examples, and links to ALL of my French Halloween resources.
Object of the game:
One player tries to get his teammate to guess the word at the top of a card. The player must give clues, but he can't use any of the Taboo words in his description. The taboo words are written beneath the underlined word at the top of the card.
Teams score points for each word successfully guessed. The team with the most points at the end of the game wins.
Beginner students should be allowed to use the French TABOO words printed on the cards. This will encourage them to use new vocabulary and will help them in forming sentences to use as clues.
This French Taboo vocabulary and speaking game includes the following:
What teachers are saying about my French Taboo Speaking games:
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "This is exactly what I've been looking for to consolidate and expand vocabulary! I teach a beginners intensive course (IB) as well as intermediate students who've done 2 years of French. Students love being able to guess, even being supported with a dictionary. LOVE the range of levels variety of vocab. Looking forward to the growing nature of this bundle. UN GRAND MERCI!!!" - L.J.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "Love this! Great design, great differentiation of playing for lower levels (or higher levels), and love that there are so many topics! Great words included in each one." - Ashley Lefevre
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "This is a great supplement for multi-level classes. I have students who are francophone and students who have never taken a French class before this year, so a resource like this is very much appreciated." - Missalineous
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "Absolutely loved this and so did my kids. Vocabulary is a weak spot so this is a great resource to help build school related vocabulary. Taboo is awesome!" - Classroom of a Caper
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "A great way to make the students use different vocab to express their ideas!" - Made by Mademoiselle
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "It was sooo good when I used it in my French class. I teach English and French in Spain and I'm decided to use it in both subjects for the coming year. I needed two lessons because the students had so much fun that they asked me to play another day!" - Ester B.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "Thank you! I like how there is a beginner version of the game - perfect for my core French students!" - Janesse M.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "This is my second set of Taboo cards from Love Learning Languages, as the first round with reflexive verbs was a huge hit. Kids again enjoyed this review of vocabulary terms. This can be differentiated for students at various levels of confidence and ability." - Rebecca C.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "This was a very useful resource to purchase and I would recommend it to any junior teacher! Everything you needed was there and it was very organized resource. Looking forward to using it again this year!" - Kathleen E.

What teachers are saying about my French fortune tellers:
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “I had created a Google Classroom project that had a quiz at the end. Students were all at different phases of the project and I needed something related that early finishers who had already taken the quiz could do so that their classmates could continue their work. This was absolutely perfect. My students had a really good time with this project. I highly recommend this as a way to have students use a hands-on creative project to complete. I have a lot of ideas moving forward of how I can create activities using the fortune tellers. This is a lovely tool with many potential uses.”
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “The students loved creating their own fortune tellers and practicing conjugations with their classmates. This is a great resource!”
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “This is a great resource for review purposes or 'game day'! Also good to be used as a supply lesson plan so that students have an engaging activity for a non-French supply teacher.”
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Fun manipulative for encouraging target language!”

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!”

CORE FRENCH | FSL | BOÎTE À BENTO | BOX | GAME-BASED LEARNING | JEUX + UNITÉS |
By French Made Fun!
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:
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!

Besides loving that your students will be engaged in this highly interactive activity, you'll quickly come to appreciate that you can use these games across many levels with any tense that meets your needs!
Students play in pairs. They play quick games of "pierre, feuille, ciseaux" to see who will be able to move forward a certain number of spaces on the game board.
The following sentences are written in French on the game board, and it’s fun way to get them speaking more French during the game if they say them when they win:
⭐ La pierre écrase les ciseaux.
⭐ La feuille enveloppe la pierre.
⭐ Les ciseaux découpent la feuille.
When a student lands on a space, he conjugates and translates the verb written on it using the subject pronoun provided. Winning is easy, as long as you're the first one to reach la fin!
Included with this resource:

► One game for the verb être
► One game for the verb aller
► One game for the verb avoir

CORE FRENCH | FSL | PROF DU JOUR | DAILY ROUTINE | GAMES + COMMUNICATION PROMPTS
By French Made Fun!
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.
How This Resource Benefits Your Classroom:
What’s Included:
In addition to your yearly calendar with interactive daily slides, this resource provides a list of 30 easy-to-implement activities, including:
Why Teachers Will Love It:
How to Use:
Simply choose an activity, explain it briefly to the "Prof du jour," and let them take the lead. Each activity is designed to be intuitive and easy to facilitate, so even without notice, the student leader can jump into their role confidently. You can rotate the "Prof du jour" daily or weekly, giving every student the opportunity to shine and grow in their speaking abilities.

✮ French Brainstorming game - Remue-Méninges Classic ✮
FRENCH | BACK-TO-SCHOOL/RENTRÉE | 4 CORNERS/4 COINS | ICEBREAKER | GET TO KNOW
By French Made Fun!
This is a freebie for you!
This game of "Four Corners" is not new or unique; however, this one will work great for your middle schoolers who need to get up and move, and you'll find they are more apt to share without raising their hands or writing it down. This quick and easy, no prep and no printing activity will allow you to truly get to know them on a personal level very quickly.
It's HIGHLY visual so this could even fly in a Core French classroom (Grades 5 - 9); however, I use it in an immersion setting (Grades 5 and 6). It could comfortably be used in any Immersion or French first-language classroom (Grades 3 - 9). As with all of my products, it's not at all babyish and doesn't feature fonts that are frilly or hard-to-read.
For this activity, simply project and GO. I let my students know that they will have to choose their response and move to the corner of the room that suits their answer. You can either click through the slides, have a student touch your SmartBoard to move them along, or you can use a remote clicker or mouse (I do while I'm playing!) to keep the slides rolling.

I hope you have a G R E A T back-to-school, and hope your kids love you! I sure appreciate all of you!
Don't forget to have fun and be real!

Students play in pairs. They play quick games of "pierre, feuille, ciseaux" to see who will be able to move forward a certain number of spaces on the game board.
The following sentences are written in French on the game board, and it’s fun way to get them speaking more French during the game if they say them when they win:
⭐ La pierre écrase les ciseaux.

When a student lands on a space, he conjugates and translates the verb written on it using the subject pronoun provided. Winning is easy, as long as you're the first one to reach la fin!
Included with this resource:
