This is an information PPT for students, designed to prepare them for the AQA GCSE listening and reading exams, although I’m sure it’ll work with the Edexcel papers too. The PPT includes some tips, ‘pesky words’, synonyms, etc.

Use this PPT to present directions in German. The PPT features an animated arrow, followed of course by the German phrases for the corresponding directions.

Pupils use the worksheet (and their knowledge of countries in Europe) to label the map of Europe in French. This could be done previous to or following teaching of countries in Europe or maybe a quick pre-worksheet quiz about the countries in English.

This PPT introduces pupils to arguably the two most important verbs in the French language.

This PPT introduces the topic of ideal holidays, using 'je voudrais' and 'j'aimerais'. Introduce the vocab section by section. Each image appears with the relevant part of the sentence, also highlighting how to build the sentences. Pupils then match up what they have learned to the English. There is a translation activity after this and then a game of the famous 'Donate or Steal' at the end. Instructions are in the notes section of the PPT.

Simply match up the times as a starter, following a lesson on how to tell the time in French.

Use the texts as a basis for introducing different types of sport. Then, pupils work to remember whether each sport uses 'je fais' or 'je joue'. You could look at patterns here. From memory, pupils complete the phrases they've just learned. Finish with a game of the famous 'Donate or Steal' (instructions in the notes section of the slide.

The text is on the topic of smoking and is aimed at KS4. In 2 teams, pupils choose a word to find in the text. The pupils don’t know what each word is worth. Click on the word they have chosen when they have correctly identified it in the text and their score will be revealed. The winning team is the team with the highest score once all words have been found in the text.

Use this PPT to introduce and practise French letter/letter string pronunciation. The first slide introduces each letter/letter string with an example, then there is a Kim's Game-style game to practise pronunciation. Finally, play Connect 4 with pupils using the given words. Instructions are in the notes section of the PPT.

Using Monet’s painting, ‘Jardin à Sainte-Adresse’ and example sentences underneath the painting, pupils have to change one word (if it’s a noun, they can change le/la) to make a sentence of their own. This activity focuses in particular on colours and agreements.

This PPT introduces some facts about Christmas traditions in Germany as a multiple choice-style quiz. At the end of the PPT, there is then an advent calendar-style game about the facts and vocab.

Simply a template for a Diamond Nine activity!

Use the PPT to introduce family members in German. Print and copy the family tree from the presentation, so pupils can follow and make notes. Pupils then use the clues (e.g. my dad’s brother) to identify the family member.

This PPT introduces pupils to prepositions in French, using Where’s Wally? Pupils must find Wally first. After he’s been found, introduce the preposition. At the end of the presentation, pupils must then match the French preposition to the English.

This activity can be done in pairs or as a class. As a class, one pupil leaves the room while everyone else decides what the correct sequence should be. The pupil re-enters the room and tries to guess the sequence. If incorrect, they have to start again. It's better as a pairwork activity. One pupil decides which options they want to use in the complete paragraph. The other reads through the paragraph, guessing the options as they go. If incorrect, they must start again. Cue lots of laughter!

Use this PPT to introduce the advantages and disadvantages of technology. Start by seeing if students can work out if these are advantages or disadvantages of technology. Students then discuss in pairs how they (could have) worked out the English meaning, using the clues.

This worksheet allows lower ability pupils to practise German directions.

This Connect 4 game practises the simple future of both regular and irregular verbs in French. Pupils work in two teams (red and blue) and their objective is to get 4 (or 3, if you prefer) of their coloured rectangles in a row. This can be vertically, horizontally or diagonally. In presentation mode, click on the relevant coloured circle to change the colour of the rectangle.

Get pupils to stick these tables into their books for reference. Definite and indefinite pronouns and their cases (masculine, feminine, neuter and plural + nominative, accusative, genitive and dative).

Not just food and drink, but quantities in general. A simple set of a few phrases, some of which make sense and some of which do not. Then students can make their own phrases for their partner.
