Introduction:
Begin with a quick “Guess Who?” picture game to spark interest in describing people. Review previously learned greetings and basic personal questions. Explain that today’s success criteria are: using correct adjectives, possessive/demonstrative forms, and present‑tense verbs to talk about self, family and friends.
|
Lesson Structure:
- Do‑now (5'): Vocabulary matching on flashcards – students pair up and match French adjectives to English meanings.
- Mini‑lecture (10'): Review possessive and demonstrative adjectives with examples on the board.
- Listening activity (10'): Play “Ma Famille” audio; students answer comprehension questions individually.
- Reading & discussion (10'): Read the provided text excerpt; students answer comprehension questions in pairs.
- Speaking practice (15'): Pair work – students use the sample dialogue prompts to interview each other and record a short dialogue.
- Writing task (15'): Students write an 80‑100 word paragraph “Ma Famille et Mes Amis” using the target grammar and vocabulary.
- Plenary & feedback (5'): Share a few excerpts, check objectives, and note common errors.

Conclusion:
Recap the key language points covered and ask students to self‑assess their confidence with the success criteria. Collect exit tickets where each learner writes one sentence using a possessive adjective and one present‑tense verb about their family. Assign homework: create a illustrated family tree labeled in French, incorporating at least five new adjectives.
