  • Free resource
  • Teachers create an account to save their creations
  • Pupils do not need an account
  • Easy to create resources which add an element of fun but can target exactly the content you choose
  • Perfect to integrate with OneNote or other platforms, pupils just need a link

Menu

MATCHING PAIRS

Very quick to create and can be used for both reading and listening exercises

Examples

  • Reading
    • directions
    • clothes
  • Listening
    • dates and numbers
    • le confinement
    • near future
  • With pictures
    • Christmas vocab

Menu

GROUP ASSIGNMENT

Create categories and then assign words/phrases to them, good for gender of nouns, prepositions, articles...

Examples

  • jouer à or faire de
  • food,, du/de la/des
  • places in town: à la/au/aux/à l'

Menu

FREETEXT INPUT

Can work as a self marking translation exercise or spelling/vocab text.

Examples

  • short sentences Y7
  • short sentences Y6
  • qualifiers and personality adj Y5
  • longer sentences Y8

Menu

PUZZLE

Good for more scaffolded sentence translations

Examples:

  • clothes
  • places in town and directions

Menu

MATCHING PAIRS ON IMAGES

Another way of matching words/phrases to images but with one picture and some virtual pins.

Example:

  • fruit and veg (Y5)

Menu

MEMORY

Classic memory game but you can use full sentences and make them quite long for more advanced pupils, so it works like a narrow reading/translation exercise.

Example:

  • frequency phrases
  • ma maison idéale

Menu

HORSE RACE

Probably more fun for younger children, possibility to play against the computer or against friends. A little slow.

Example

  • prepositions

Menu

MATRIX

Combine apps together on a similar topic, generate one link for 3 activities.

Example

  • Christmas vocab: picture match, listening and spelling
  • school vocab (Y5)
