Less than $5 Kindergarten en Français Assessment (by date, oldest first)

Flip Card decks are so handy for the classroom. I use them in small group work to assess and teach specific sounds, combinations of CV sounds, and to decode words together. The large format cards are great for my Grade 1 students as we can do a lot of whole class instruction and the students have so much fun coming up to the front of the class to come up with the 'really hard' CV combinations for their peers to read out loud.

Use the smaller sets for learning centres, individual work, and pair work as your students get familiar with their phonological awareness and phonemic awareness. My students happen to love 'testing' each other by flipping the cards, saying the sound, and then waiting as their 'students' write what they think is the correct letter on their whiteboards!

We love them so much as we can sneak in a little decoding and Science of Reading whenever we get a minute or two of time to fill.

Who can use this resource:

Any French educator who is wanting to practice, assess, and deepen their students understanding of sound work in French. This item is suitable for French Immersion, Core French, and French instruction at any level. Students in the Core French environment can benefit from using these sets independently for writing assignments and group activities. Immersion teachers will find these flip cards useful for any students from Grades 1 to 4 who need an extra boost to building a stronger phonological awareness and phonemic awareness. This coincides beautifully with the 'Heggerty type' approach to French Instruction being introduced in many provinces in Canada.

What you get in this resource:

-sound cards for consonants in small size

-sound cards for consonants in large size

-sound cards for vowel sound in French including the accents on the 'e' (aigu, grave, and circonflexe) in small

-sound cards for vowel sound in French including the accents on the 'e' (aigu, grave, and circonflexe) in large format

These items are SOR friendly and are great for decoding, encoding, and developing a more robust phonemic awareness and phonological awareness.

French Decodable texts that align with the Science of Reading and current available reading education concepts. The easy to use texts can be utilised in the classroom with little to no preparation. Make a few copies of each text and insert into clear pockets to create a quick and easy reading centre; arrange a table with four copies to create a quiet reading group; use one-on-one with your students to assess reading levels, to gain insights to their decoding skills, and to inform your upcoming lesson plans. Whatever way you choose to use this resource, I am so grateful that you have given this item a try!

Who can use this resource:

Teachers who are just getting accustomed to using strategies from the Science of Reading can use these simple texts to open up independent practice, small group evaluation, or up on a digital screen for whole group instruction and reading practice.

Make a set and send them home with students to build fluency in reading and confidence in reading strategies.

Texts are designed to build a number of common French sounds and get more challenging as they go on.

Correction sheet is handy for use with a substitute as they can confidently assess students and command the lesson even when they are not assured of their French skills.

What grade level:

I personally use these texts with Grade 1 and Grade 2 students in French Immersion. I feel confident that students from K-3 will find these most useful and teachers can come back to the texts with any students who may be experiencing challenges in their French reading skills. Core French teachers will be sure to add the resource to their repertoire for Grades 4 to 6 as they learn to read and write at the Junior level.

French Weekly Self-Assessment FREEBIE

This handy self-assessment sheet is designed largely for French teachers at the K-2 level. The quick and easy table means students just quickly mark the emoji that best suits how they feel about their week.

It takes students a few weeks to really get used to being reflective about their role in the learning process but believe me, it is so rewarding when they start to really understand the role they play in making each week successful.

Who can use this resource?

I use this resource for Grade 1 and Grade 2 and have passed it along to our Kindergarten team and we all love its simplicity

How do I use it?

Easy peasy lemon squeezy! Just copy enough pages for your class. I like to do this a few times in small group batches until students really get the hang of it. Then, we can do it as a whole group at the end of the week.

I reflect back to it often during the week so students are primed to put some metacognition into play.
