I had to sub for our French teacher and she didn’t leave any lesson plans. I printed these off and saved the day! The teachers who subbed after me were very appreciative! Thank you so much for making these!

We are using these in our French centres and everyone is doing well with them. For some of the kiddos it is more practice and review but that’s still great. I would imagine this could be used in a FSL or FI setting, conjugation of verbs is through both!

This is a great resource to supplement any present tense unit. I used for my grade 6-8 to support with understanding verb conjugation concepts. They particularly enjoyed the word searches.
