How to use this resource
Print the board for small group work or project it onto your whiteboard for whole-class participation. Less-able students can simply name the vocabulary items in French, whilst more confident learners can create full sentences or questions. The written squares use a variety of tenses but are easily adaptable to suit your class's needs. You can also adjust the level of challenge by removing or keeping the vocabulary support around the board's edges. Perfect for revision sessions or as a festive end-of-term activity that keeps students practising their French whilst having fun.
