The flashcards / posters introduce students to a range of animals in French, and they are able to familiarize themselves with how French words ‘look’, and how sounds are represented in the written form. Students notice the different words for a/an, and ask why some animals are un, and others are une. Use this as a prompt to introduce the concept of gender in French.
There are 20 animals using the masculine and feminine indefinite article, which is a great opportunity to begin to compare French to English. There are some insects and birds, as well as animals that feature in very popular stories, such as ours and loup. Looking at language, and the ways it works, either similarly to, or differently from their first language, helps students become implicitly aware of linguistic concepts in both languages, which is really useful for both current and later learning.
The animals are: a bear : a bee : a bird : a butterfly : a cat : a dog : a fish : a fox : a frog : a horse : a kangaroo : a monkey : a mouse : an owl : a parrot : a rabbit : a spider : a squirrel : a turtle / a tortoise : a wolf
It doesn’t matter if some of the animals don’t feature in your immediate or even longer-term learning plan: the posters / flashcards provide learners with daily opportunities to engage with the written word in French, to develop their recognition and recall of individual words, to identify cognates and near-cognates and to begin to link spelling with sound in French. They also help learners begin to work out the meaning of new and unknown words from visual clues or prompts.
There are three sets of 20 9.5x11 (A4) portrait posters, each with a different background for you to choose from: French flag, animal footprint or black wave.
The Lively Learning Classroom offers a wide range of French resources, including special offer bundles and freebies.
