Mode d’emploi (note this activity is great for negatives)
Here is a possible teaching sequence.
1. Read aloud some examples.
2. Do some choral repetition for pupils to get used to saying the sentences and seeing the sound-spelling links (phonics).
3. Get pupils in pairs to make up sentences (or do this as a whole class task with hands up or down)
4. Give short sentences to translate into French.
5. In the end get pupils to make up full descriptions.
6. Then take away the displayed items and see what they can do from memory.
7. If the above needs support use the “aural gap-fill technique”, i.e. give them parts of each sentence orally, then they complete.
8. With some classes you could invite them to make up their own additions in each slot.
9. With some classes try some easy dictation with the sentence frame hidden.
10. You may like the idea of pupils recording their mini talks at the end or for homework if you give them a copy of the sentence frame.
