French New Year Speaking Listening Activity Taboo Game Communication Orale
By Love Learning Languages - French Resources
Teaching French Nouvel An - New Year 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 Nouvel An, try out my French Nouvel An Question Cards - 30 French New Year's 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 the New Year.
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:
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. 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.

New Year 2024 Math Escape Room Coordinate Plane Review Activity
By Matemaths
Need an engaging, no prep after winter break activity? Your students will love this Coordinate Plane interactive digital escape room.
This activity is designed to work on laptops, tablets, or smartphones.
Your students will “visit” four different cities: New York, Paris, Rome and Tokyo.
In order to travel from one city to another, they will have to read and plot points on the coordinate plane.
After completing each game, they will find a link that will take them to another location.
Since this escape room is online (interactive pages) there is very little prep; just duplicate the student answer sheet, provide the link, and off they go! There are no locks to configure or clues to hide—everything you need is online. No Google Classroom or Microsoft Teams logins are necessary.
If your students need to complete it on different days, they will need to use the same device and the same browser. A button "continue" will appear on the first page and they will start back where they left.
You can use it as:
★ additional materials for remediation
★ a reward or “Fun Friday” activity
★ before the busy holiday break
★ an emergency sub lesson plan
Due to the Terms of Use of the font/clip artists and stock photo websites that I have purchased from, this product is not editable. Thank you for understanding.
