The Best of Teacher Entrepreneurs II: FREE MISC. LESSON - “Les phrases d’hiver: pratique de sons français (Winter French Phonics Practice)”

by Ms Joanne
1st - 2nd Grade

French vowels can be complicated for many students. This resource helps students understand the difference between short vowel sounds and the sounds vowels make when they are coupled with another letter or when there is an accent. This file contains 10 lessons, with 3 sentences per lesson. Each lesson increases slightly in difficulty.

Lesson Steps:

1. Review the simple vowel sounds (a, e, i, o, u)

2. Review the more complex vowel sounds found in the practice sentences (e.g. on, es, in, oi, an)

3. Give students a box of sentences. Have them highlight the simple vowels in one colour and the more complex sounds in another colour. An example can be seen in the photos above.

After the lesson, students can read their sentences alone or with a friend. Also included are images for each box of sentences. Students can find the image that matches the meaning of their sentences and glue them next to the sentence box. Once a few sentence boxes have been glued into the notebook, it becomes a very good reading practice for students of all levels.
