Embedding the language
All this language is designed to be used as part of everyday
classroom practice.
You could do the register with oui and non on some days (on
fait l’appel for the register is in the Greetings PPT).
For this topic, embedding the language would be the focus as
opposed to the language being taught as such.
There are example activities however to help teachers
reinforce the language being used.
Sample activities
You will find a bank of sample activities which you can use to
practise the vocabulary in the classroom.
This is not a prescriptive list of activities and you can use or
adapt them to suit the needs of your class.
S’il vous plaît ou non merci?
Pupils look at the following slides and decide if they would like
it or not by saying either S’il vous plaît or non merci!
You could make this more active by having 2 sides of the room
with each designated as the S’il vous plaît side and the other as
the Non merci! side. Ask pupils to then choose a side which
matches their opinion and say their opinion (S’il vous plaît or
non merci) as a group.
You could follow this up with asking them to choose pictures
from cut outs or create their own drawings under the headings
S’il vous plaît and non merci!

Mot de la semaine
Mot du mois
1.
2.
3.
Mot de la semaine means word of the week. Mot du mois
means word of the month.
As a way of building up classroom vocabulary gently, you could
have a word of the week/month which everyone will use in class
(or out of class too if they like!)
Once you move onto your next word, keep the previous words
going! This way the pupils will build up their language gradually!
The Big Bonjour Challenge!
1. Set pupils the challenge of saying Bonjour, merci, s’il vous plaît
and de rien (or whichever vocab you like) to everyone they speak
to.
2. You could get them to tally mark how many they do in a week
and have an inter-class competition.
Jacques a dit
Jacques a dit is French for Simon says.
It works exactly the same way whereby if you say Jacques a dit
(Jack said) at the start of a command then everyone has to do
it. If you just say the command then pupils should stand still. If
they do the action, they then sit down. Sample commands are
below:
Jacques a dit écoutez! (pupils can cup hand to ear)
Jacques a dit regardez! (mime searching)
Jacques a dit mettez-vous en ligne! (pupils get into a line)
Ecoutez!
Regardez!
Mettez-vous en ligne! Asseyez-vous Levez-vous
Songs and videos!
You will find a bank of sample songs and videos which you can use
to practise the vocabulary in the classroom.
This is not a prescriptive list of songs and you can use or adapt
them to suit the needs of your class.

time they have to stop e.g. Rodin’s The Thinker, Rafael’s
David or famous posers (some examples are included). Might
be too much but could be quite funny!

them to join in with you when you call out “strike a pose!” (see
vocabulary). They can also help spot who has moved!
4. Lastly, if you want to, you can add in some French challenges
e.g. count to ten when they are frozen, say the alphabet, say
as many colours as they can etc.

French challenge to each seat e.g. count to five, say your
name, say what the weather is like today etc. and get them to
