French passé composé - Hidden pictures game

By Frenchified

Do your students need practice with French verb conjugation?  Of course they do!  This hidden pictures game will help them to get practice with French passé composé verb conjugations.  It’s entirely self-grading, so students can work independently.

Share the Google™ sheets file with them and they will type their responses in the boxes.  As they type, each correct response will cause one box of the image to appear.  Incorrect answers will cause the box to show “false” - so they can go back and fix their response.  When they’ve correctly conjugated all of the verbs, they will have a complete image.  There are 5 different images and 5 different boards, so you can assign them a little at a time - or fill the entire class period with practice!

Topics in this game include:

  • regular verbs
  • irregular verbs
  • Vandertramp verbs
  • reflexive verbs
  • all verbs mixed together
