Vos élèves ont du mal à résoudre les mots complexes et techniques? Ces mini-leçons de lecture se concentrent principalement sur la résolution de vocabulaire complexe qui tend à apparaître dans ces niveaux avancés.

⁕⁕ Please see the preview for a full view of this document, with details in English. These descriptions and this product are entirely in French. ⁕⁕

J'ai remarqué que mes grands élèves de 6e année ont tendance à se décourager face au vocabulaire scientifique plus spécifique qu'ils découvrent lors de leurs recherches et dans la lecture de textes scientifiques - ils perdent leur enthousiasme, leur confiance - et une fois que cela se produit, nous sommes tous fichus ! J'ai créé cette ressource pour ces élèves qui se sentent découragés par le vocabulaire complexe, afin de les rediriger et de leur donner la confiance nécessaire pour continuer à progresser dans leur lecture - même lorsque cela devient difficile.

À mesure que les élèves grandissent, ils ont toujours besoin de stratégies de lecture; mais celles-ci sont très différentes de ce que l'on voit dans les premières années du primaire.

Les mini-leçons de cette unité se concentrent sur :

• Utiliser les indices de contexte: Lire autour d'un mot, relire une phrase et développer des stratégies efficaces pour traverser des phrases difficiles.
• La décomposition des mots: Se concentrer sur les préfixes, les suffixes et les racines.
• Les familles de mots: Trouver la racine d'un mot et l'utiliser pour comprendre des mots complexes.
• Les mots composés: Analyser les mots composés.

Chaque mini-leçon vous fournira des activités (généralement en paires) utilisant des cartes pour trier ou travailler sur une stratégie spécifique, des clés de réponse, un plan de leçon détaillé (suffisamment simple pour être laissé à un enseignant suppléant), des extraits de lecture avec questions de compréhension (avec une fiche de suivi de lecture pour évaluer un élève individuellement pendant que ses pairs lisent de manière autonome) et, surtout, des affiches vibrantes et captivantes pour offrir à vos élèves une visualisation de la stratégie en question. Je préfère projeter mes tableaux d'ancrage pour qu'ils puissent les voir numériquement, et imprimer de petites copies pour que mes élèves les aient à portée de main dans leurs classeurs. Le choix vous appartient entièrement.

Vous en voulez plus ? Voici quelques ressources de mini-leçons en FRANÇAIS à déCouvrir :

• Écriture: Générer les idées
• Écriture: Endurance et motivation
• Écriture: La structure et la fluidité
• Écriture: Améliorer le choix de mots
• Écriture: Introductions & Conclusions
• Lecture: Solutionner les mots
• Lecture: La visualisation
• Lecture: Faire des liens
• Lecture: Connaissances antérieures
• Lecture: Faire des prédictions
• Lecture: Faire des inférences
• Lecture: Informations clés
• Lecture: Stratégies de réparation

Your French students need to practice conjugating the verbs ouvrir, souffrir, offrir, and couvrir, you need an easy and no-prep activity that will keep them engaged and having fun while learning. Look no further! Students already know how to play "rock, paper, scissors" in English, so why not have some fun with "pierre, feuille, ciseaux" while mastering verb conjugations in your French classroom?

Check out my money saving bundle for more games like these!

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:

► Instructions on how to play

► One version for ouvrir

► One version for souffrir

► One version for offrir

► One version for couvrir

► One version for ouvrir, souffrir, offrir, and couvrir

The instructions are written in English, so this will be an easy activity for you to leave for a non-French speaking substitute teacher on days when you can't be there.

What makes these games work so well in the French classroom?

⭐ An engaging way to practice common irregular verbs

⭐ Students love that it’s highly interactive

⭐ Modify the tenses you use to meet your needs

⭐ Perfect activity to review for quiz or test days

⭐ Make copies and laminate them for ready to go games 

⭐ Absolutely no prep required, a real time saver for you

2 French Children's Story Videos (Petit Poulet and L'Oiseau et la baleine) from The French Experiment are linked.

For your beginner Core French class, I recommend having students watch one of the videos in French first with no subtitles. Have them try to answer as many questions as possible from the accompanying worksheet. You might want to play the video at .75x speed if you teach elementary students.

Next, play the video once more, this time with subtitles. Students will be able to fill in the blanks they missed the first time around.

The last question for each of the stories allow students to think critically about the lesson each story teaches.

The worksheets are in English. The videos are in French.

I found this allows students to think about what they are watching more carefully, learning more French words along the way.

An answer key is not included, but the questions are very simple and you will be able to answer them easily after watching the video. I wrote the answers while watching the videos along with the students.

The French Experiment offers these two French videos for free. The rest are on a paid version. You can check it out below.

Teaching French chez le médecin - doctor 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 le médecin, try out my French Doctor Speaking Activity - Chez le Médecin.

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 chez le médecin.

French Taboo Games Growing Bundle

Classic French Taboo Games Bundle - 3 Versions

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:

• How to play French Taboo (beginner and advanced levels)
• 41 printable taboo cards in French and English
• Page for recording new words in French in English

What teachers are saying about my French Taboo Speaking games:

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

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "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.

Teaching French Thanksgiving 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 Thanksgiving, take a look at all of my French Thanksgiving resources!

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 Thanksgiving.

Try out a free full version Taboo Game - Pays et Villes

French Taboo Games Growing Bundle

Classic French Taboo Games Bundle - 3 Versions

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:

• How to play French Taboo (beginner and advanced levels)
• 30 printable taboo cards in French and English
• Page for recording new words in French in English

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.

This beefy 125+ page unit on weather and seasons is perfect for your older Core French students who might not have had the luxury of learning this vocabulary and these concepts when they were supposed to. This product (and my other Core French products) are built for exactly that demographic: middle school kids who are too old and "too mature" (so they think!) to be learning these babyish concepts. If this sounds like your demographic -- WELCOME! Look no further.

I teach with a game-based model, and within this unit, you'll have full guided lesson plans showing you how to engage them at every step of the way. This document is divided in two parts: One Slide Deck features interactive games and instructional materials, and a second Slide Deck features all of your lesson plans (including classroom management suggestions, alternative plans, and differentiated models), worksheets, project instructions + success criteria, flashcards + printable games, templates, activities, and word wall vocabulary. I am not your run-of-the-mill crossword puzzles, "find-a-word" and "coloring contest" gal - these games are high energy, encourage movement and will get them (seriously) speaking in French.

Specifically, I cover (in-depth!) everything they need to know about *seasons*(including the verbs we use to talk about seasons - faire, manger, boire, porter), temperatures, weather, seasonal activities, clothing we wear in different seasons, food and drink we enjoy in different seasons, months of the year, days, etc.

Activities and games you'll find included in this mega-unit:

• 4 Coins (or Tapette à mouche) - featuring review material on seasons.

• Énigmes - seasonal riddles.

• In-depth explanation with examples and practice prompts for:

• Le verbe "faire" - and the situations where we use it in context in the present tense.

• Le verbe "manger" - and how to use it in context in the present tense.

• Le verbe "boire" - and how we use it in context in the present tense.

• Le verbe "porter" - and how we use it in context in the present tense.

• "Quel temps fait-il?" - a super fun interactive whole group whiteboard game where your students will click and be directed through a series of questions - testing their knowledge about meteorological conditions!

• "Charades saisonnières" - with explanation and guided prompts (for you!)

• "La poésie saisonnière" - A poetry-writing exercise on using our 5 senses.

• A seasonal activities matching game.

• A reflexive writing activity on seasonal preferences.

• "Des vêtements parfaits" - A worksheet for students to create their dream outfit for their favorite season (#OOTD!)

• A "J'ai... Qui a?" Card game with 28 cards featuring weather, seasons, days of the week and relevant vocabulary to this unit (and a guide sheet for you to make sure it runs smoothly!)

• "Mon cahier sur la météo" - A simple 2-page look into the daily weather and temperature that students can complete independently or as homework.

• Centres activities with direction for you on leading them. Centres include:

• An English-French matching game

• A trivia round

• Weather charades

• Season riddles

• Success criteria for final project, "Ma bande dessinée saisonnière," in which students create a comic strip featuring all 4 seasons and their changes. It comes with worksheets, templates and brainstorming prompts.
