French Decodable Sentence Strips are interactive French activity cards to promote decoding and encoding skills aligned with the Science of Reading (la conscience phonologique) in the French Immersion K-2 classroom. This resource is designed to optimize learning, develop independent learning strategies, and boost student confidence in the classroom. Cultivate a love of learning French with these fun and exciting sentence strips!

How to use this resource:

Make a few copies of each card 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, encoding skills, and to inform your upcoming lesson plans. Students use whiteboard markers to sound out each sound in the word, each syllable, or each word in the sentence. What a great way to build confidence! Whatever way you choose to use this resource, I am so grateful that you have given this item a try!

Science of Reading:

These sentence strips are aligned with sounds being taught in any Science of Reading aligned curriculum. They are set up for student success based on the research for increasing reading fluency and building student confidence in the classroom!

Once you have established the strategies for identifying sounds, initial sounds, and blending sounds, segmenting sounds, students will be able to use these self-driven sentence strips on their own. What a great way to build learning autonomy!

What does the resource contain?

Target sound for this resource is 'Le Son UI'

-5 pages with 2 sentences each with focus on the UI sound

-tapping boxes for students to tap and map each word in the sentence

-space to write the sentence out themselves once they have decoded and segmented the words/sentence

-5 additional cards without boxes for students to work on their own

-each page can be cut in half to make 10 separate sentence strips

-just laminate and go!

Who can use this resource:

French Immersion teachers in the K-3 classroom and those teaching beginner French students. Can be used at the Grade 4-6 level with Core French students learning to segment and blend complex sounds.

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.
