French Past Conditional Lesson - Should have, Could have, Would have
This resource includes the following:
➯ A set of 25 numbered cards with sentences written in English that students will then translate to French. A numbered answer key is also included so that students can work on their own. It is expected that students also know some other past tenses and some simple pronouns that are normally taught way before the past conditional.
➯ A one page printable reference guide that folds into a booklet that students can use for easy reference. The booklet includes all of the essential information needed for saying should have, could have, and would have.
➯ A two page study guide on forming the present conditional that highlights how to say should have, could have, and would have. If you do double-sided printing you can still just pass out one sheet of paper. The study guide is jam packed with everything you need to know about the past conditional.
Here’s the link to my video tutorial on how to use should have, could have, and would have in the past conditional. The study guide included with this resource follows the information given in the video lesson.
French Present Conditional Lesson - Should, Could, Would

➯ A set of 25 numbered cards with sentences written in English that students will then translate to French. A numbered answer key is also included so that students can work on their own. It is expected that students also know the imperfect tense and some simple pronouns that are normally taught way before the conditional.

Here’s the link to my video tutorial on how to use should, could, and would in the present conditional. To get right to the lesson without all of the extra talk (it’s my YouTube channel) just start at :57 and end at 13:15. The study guide included with this resource follows the information given in the video lesson.
Depuis, pendant, il y a, pour: Complete lesson, study guide, 50 practice cards
This French lesson plan will shed some light on when to use depuis, pendant, il y a, and pour when expressing time, which can be a very difficult topic for native English speakers. This resource includes a link to my 20 minute video tutorial on YouTube (here is the link if you’d like to have a look), a two page lesson guide that is useful whether you choose to show the video or not, and 50 practice cards that you can either print and cut out to have students work in small groups or that you can project for a whole class activity.
All of the cards are numbered and an answer key is provided. This easily allows students to work and practice independently or with a partner.
French Practice Cards: BON - BIEN - MEILLEUR - MIEUX
This is a set of 65 cards for practicing and mastering BON - BIEN - MEILLEUR - MIEUX. This set of cards uses bon and bien as well as their comparative forms meilleur and mieux, but also a whole lot more (see below). That’s why this stack of cards is great for upper-intermediate and even advanced students!
This resource does not incorporate the superlative. When using meilleur and mieux, we are really focusing on how to say “better” in French. This is always so hard since we use the same word in English whether we are using adverbs or adjectives. I have also made a 45 minute video that you can find on YouTube that would be perfect to show before pulling out these cards which I made specifically to accompany this very comprehensive lesson. I’m including a handy 3 page study guide to accompany the lesson and this set of cards.
Topics covered:
Comparing with bon and meilleur
Comparing with bien and mieux
Using bon and meilleur as adverbs with the verbs faire and sentir
Using bien with se sentir
Using all four forms with the linking verbs être and avoir l’air
Using bon to say something is right or correct
Using bien to mean “really” before bon and certain other adjectives
Using bien when talking about approach, method, style, and technique

Included:
Set of 65 cards to print and cut out
Set of the same 65 cards with only one per page for use on tablets or for projecting
