French Vocabulary Sheets: how to use them
There are many ways you can use these vocabulary sheets.
You could create a portable word wall.
Or you can add these full-page “lexiques” to your classroom writing centre.
What kind of writing centre?
Here are some things you can have your kiddos to do, depending on their level of proficiency and independence:
- copy words to improve their penmanship.
- copy words and illustrate them.
- choose 3-7 words and write sentences with the words.
- select words and write a story using all the words selected.
- spell words for a classmate to write (pair dictation).
- choose a letter and see how many words they can find that include the letter. Copy all the words.
- find rhyming words, or words that start/end with the same letter.
- sort the words by number of syllables. Write the words in columns marked 1, 2, 3, etc for the number of syllables.
You don’t really do writing centres in your classroom?
No worries, the tasks above would also be great time-fillers or activities for early-finishers!
