Practice is what it takes when learning verb conjugations. This audio recorded drill (native speaker) will help students learn regular French -ER, -IR and -RE verbs in the present tense. This is a verb drill of 100 common regular French verbs that you can use either in the classroom or language lab. I've included five great ways for you to use this drill. Take a closer look in the preview!

This resource is part of my French 1 grammar, vocabulary, games and activities growing bundle.

The audio recording you will download will be great for listening comprehension and oral production, written exercises, paired work and even a cooperative learning group writing game.

Examples:

FINIR - TO FINISH - JE - 5 seconds to say or write answer before recorded response - JE FINIS

ATTENDRE - TO WAIT - TU - 5 seconds to say or write answer before recorded response - TU ATTENDS

VENDRE - TO SELL - IL - 5 seconds to say or write answer before recorded response - IL VEND

ABOLIR - TO ABOLISH - NOUS - 5 seconds to say or write answer before recorded response - NOUS ABOLISSONS

MANGER - TO EAT - VOUS - 5 seconds to say or write answer before recorded response - VOUS MANGEZ

RÉUSSIR - TO SUCCEED - ILS - 5 seconds to say or write answer before recorded response - ILS RÉUSSISSENT

During the recording the verbs are not numbered so that you can easily choose a group of 10 or 15 at any point during the exercise to use as bell ringer reviews or to get your students in French mode as they enter the classroom. Use this drill at any time during the year as an excellent review. Use it with upper level students who sometimes need to revise the basics or provide a copy to struggling students who can use it as review while riding on the bus or in the car.

Included:

• 20 minute mp3 audio recording of 100 regular French verbs in the present tense.
• Answer sheet
• Student response sheet
• 5 effective ways to use this verb drill

1. Language lab or classroom listening and speaking exercise

Students listen to the drill either as a class or with individual headphones on. They will hear an infinitive and subject pronoun to conjugate.Students are given five seconds to say their answer before the correct response is pronounced. The verbs are purposefully not numbered in the recording so that you can choose to do them either in or out of order. This is a listening and speaking grammar drill and writing the answers is not encouraged.

2. Language lab or classroom silent written exercise

Provide each student with a numbered answer recording sheet. Students should be reminded to pay close attention as the verbs in the recording are NOT numbered. They will hear an infinitive which they should write in the appropriate column. Next they’ll hear a subject pronoun and will be given five seconds to write their answers. Since this is a fast moving exercise you may want to give students a chance to revise their answers once the recording has stopped.

3. Whiteboard classroom activity - Individual or paired work

Have students write answers on whiteboards after they’ve heard the infinitive and

subject pronoun to be used. Pause the recording and give students five seconds to write their answers. When they’ve finished have them listen carefully and check their work when you stop pause and play the answer. This works particularly well with pairs of students because they can help each other and the work won’t seem so tedious. I often allow my pairs of students to keep track of one point per correct answer and at the end of the activity see which group has the most points.

4. Bell ringer activity

You have five or ten minutes to spare at the end of class, so why not play a sampling of the verb drill? With 100 verbs to choose from you could keep it quite varied. Also use parts of the drill as students enter the classroom to get them in French mode. I've found this to be a great way to keep kids quiet as they come in and get settled.

5. Group writing game

Chances are you have your students’ desks in some kind of rows or groups. Here’s a fun way to change up the verb drills a bit. Let’s say you have rows or groups of five students. Before starting the verb drill recording give the first person in each group a blank sheet of paper and he should have something to write with.

Number the paper 1 - 5 (or the number of students in the group) and as you play the drill the first student has to write his answer next to #1. He has to write something even if he doesn’t know exactly how to spell it. Immediately after the answer is pronounced on the recording he must pass the paper to the next person in his group. It’s important not to hesitate because the recording will continue.

Person #2 records his answer and so on until each person in the group has had a go. At this point, stop the recording and the last person in each group brings the paper back up to the first person who can look over all of the answers written by his group members. He can make any changes he wants to make to anyone’s answer BUT STUDENTS CANNOT SPEAK A WORD TO EACH OTHER.

He then passes the paper back down the row and everyone gets a chance to change either his own or another group member’s answer. They should move fast though because here’s the catch, the first group to turn in a 100% accurate paper to the teacher wins that round!

Desert Island Explorer is an engaging, two-week game-based sub unit designed for grades 5 to 9, offering an immersive and bilingual experience centered around the theme of desert islands. This project-based learning module combines elements of language arts, science, and teamwork to enhance students' critical thinking, creativity, and collaborative skills.

Nothing is more stressful than having to leave work for an extended time: our profession requires us to plan, to create engaging resources, and to assume the subs covering have French capabilities. We all know that's... not the reality of this profession. When you've gotta be out, you've gotta be out, and frankly, when you're in this position, you've not got the time, energy or mental health to allow for this level of planning. That's where I come in! This ressource covers you for roughly two weeks: providing your sub with direction in English, and activities in both English and French to ensure a seamless absence... And if you aren't actually out (or maybe you're checked out and just a body in the room!) but just want someone to tell you what to do for 2 weeks, this checks out for that, too.

I integrate discussion-based prompts, writing activities, reading activities, film watching, reflections, games, math tasks, group work, projects, presentations, art tasks - just about everything to keep them engaged while you're away! This is a clear and engaging this resource for your next emergency absence.

In this mega crypt of activities relating to desert island survival, you'll discover the following activities:

• All lesson plans (in English) for 15 activities and projects;
• Desert Island Charades (An engaging team activity where they must act out different desert island scenarios and go head-to-head against the opposing team);
• Island Survival Expedition (A team-based activity on choosing the items to bring to a desert island - without surpassing a maximum weight limit);
• Shipwrecked (An activity which will have students ranking items based on their importance for survival after being shipwrecked);
• A Brief History of the Message in a Bottle with 2 questions;
• Make Your Own Message in a Bottle (An engaging, meaningful task which involves students writing, decorating, "throwing to sea" and finding bottles with their classmates);
• Bottle + old paper templates (For use with Message in a Bottle activities);
• Dilemme sur une île déserte (4 pages of math activities - French only);
• 2 x Reading comprehension:
  • “Perdus en mer” (French only - grades 7-9) with questions;
  • “L’Île mystérieuse” (French only - grades 4-6) with questions.
• Desert Island Dilemma (A writing prompt with information for idea generation);
• Film project (Success criteria and rubrics included for this team-based, drama-focused task);
• The great survival strategy (Stations activity on persuasive language techniques and strategies)
• The great survival strategy (Persuasive prompt following the stations activity)
• Jeopardy-style flash cards (Whole group team-based game on finding the best answer)
• Watch + Respond (A film to be viewed with examples on how to engage students with their listening)
• Watch + Respond (Student question list - English only)
• Watch + Respond (Collaborative question cards - English only)
• The Ultimate Survival Guide (A final project which will have students creating pamphlets, brochures or an infographic on a desert island. Includes success criteria and rubrics in both English and French).

The story revolves around two teens trying to decide what classes to take.  Your students play the role of the mystery solvers.  They have to read all 10 parts of the story to figure out the answer to the final question;  what will the students grow up to be in their career?   While your students read the story parts, they are looking for “code words” in the story.  Students record the code words on a special answer sheet that will eventually lead them to solving the mystery of teens’  future career.  It’s so much fun! 

After, you can decide which of the 4 follow-up activities you want to do with your students.  There are 4; a True or False Activity to check for basic comprehension, a “tell me in your own words” summary activity, an opportunity to work with a group and write a story about a adventure the teens will have in their career (which can be done in the TL),  and an activity where they can explore possible careers for bilingual people.   Answer key to the True/False is also included.  Best of all?  If there’s something you’d like to change for your students, you are free to edit!

This set of French signs is a fun way to practice reading comprehension, use context clues and get some cultural information to your students!

100 different signs from different places in France, all collected and ready for your use. A wide variety of topics and purposes - ads, notices, informational, historical. Some of the signs are handwritten (let your students practice reading French cursive writing!), some are printed.

This is a fun way to get your class reading, discussing, and learning about the culture of France. Use the signs as class openers, assessment, discussion prompts - each sign is on a form that asks students to consider the purpose and tone of the sign as well as the most relevant information.

Some of the signs are very simple and easy to understand, others are more complex and require more vocabulary knowledge. Many of the signs have some sort of picture on them, but some don't - lots of opportunities for differentiation!

There are three different sign bundles - buy one or get all three at a discount.
