This printable resource includes a 4-page workbook that reviews 1st-, 2nd-, and 3rd-group verbs in the present tense, a crossword puzzle, a quiz, complete answer keys, and teacher instructions. Designed for French Immersion Grades 6–9 and adaptable for Senior High School FSL/Core French, this resource helps students strengthen the prerequisite skills needed to confidently form the imperative while giving teachers a quick and effective way to review and assess prior learning.

SKILLS COVERED:
✔ Reviewing the 3 groups of verbs
✔ Conjugating the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd group in the present tense

HOW IT WORKS:
Before introducing the French imperative, students complete a short review of present tense conjugation for 1st-, 2nd-, and 3rd-group verbs. This allows them to refresh the conjugation patterns that are essential for forming imperative verbs. The included crossword puzzle provides additional reinforcement of present tense forms, while the quiz offers a quick formative assessment to help identify any concepts that may need further review before beginning the imperative unit.

I started at a new school this year and thought that this would be a good review for them and have the, create resource sheets for the,selves, but realised that my students were WAY behind where they would normally be (most likely due to their online COVID years). I had to scale this back and hope to reintroduce it to my students in 8th grade next year.
