Embedding French in the Primary Curriculum A starter activity for PSHE (categories of foods) Teacher’s Notes: Learning Objective for PSHE: Identifying which items belong to which food groups Learning Objective for French: Names of foods; names of food groups Resources: flashcards or pictures on the interactive whiteboard / powerpoint / smartboard of foods (dairy products, vegetables, fruits) Explanation of the activity: Pupils learn the names of various food items (cognates and non-cognates) and also the food group to which they belong. Step 1 : Teacher presents pictures and words one at a time; pupils repeat. Best done with pictures and words together. Step 2 : Pupils match up words and pictures e.g. slide words on an interactive whiteboard next to the appropriate picture. Can also be a ‘beat the teacher’ game where the teacher names a picture; if they name it correctly, the pupils repeat what the teacher says; if the teacher doesn’t name the item correctly, the pupils remain silent. Teacher keeps a points’ score on the board. Or a ‘splat game’ : teacher names an item in French and pupils from two teams try to be the first to swat the picture of the correct item Step 3 : Introduce food groups : produits laitiers (dairy products), fruits, légumes (vegetables). Best done with the pictures arranged into their appropriate groups Step 4 : (could be cards or words on an interactive whiteboard). Pupils arrange names of items into the 3 food groups. E.g. teacher points to a word (“carottes”)and the class together identify the relevant category (“légumes”) Progression: (different Step 2’s over a series of lessons) Vocabulary: (teachers are naturally free to adapt this list at their discretion and add to it over time) Les produits laitiers Les fruits Les legumes Le fromage Les pommes Les tomates Le lait Les oranges Les pommes de terre Le beurre Les bananes Les carottes Le yaourt Les fraises Le choufleur La crème Les framboises Le chou Teacher’s script (generic) Translation into English Répétez s’il vous plaît.
