FRANZÖSISCHE WEIHNACHTSWORTRÄTSEL FRENCH CHRISTMAS WORD SEARCHES FOR GERMAN SPEAKERS

French Christmas Word Searches for German Speakers from The Lively Learning Classroom World Languages collection: a selection of our most popular French resources for English speakers, recreated for German speakers.

Word searches are a simple and effective way of encouraging students to engage with the written word in French, refreshing and reinforcing language as they complete the grids. This set features ten differentiated word searches, with each consecutive grid increasing in challenge. It focuses on 30 French Christmas words, which will also help to develop students’ awareness of some French-speaking countries Christmas traditions and figures, such as la galette des Rois and Père Fouettard. The vocabulary is really useful for stimulating discussion about French Christmas practices and customs. Students also enjoy talking about other Christmas traditions they know or follow. The vocabulary list features the definite article, though some grids also have the indefinite article / plurals for additional challenge.

There are ten differentiated word searches with corresponding answer keys:

= Grids 1-4 are French-French where students are prompted with the French words, and look for them in French in the grid. For additional consolidation, each grid also features a German word list to complete.

= Grids 5-8 are German-French where the prompts are given in German, and students look for the French translation in the grid. They also write the French translation of the German word.

= Grids 9 and 10 prompt students with a specific image, and they look for the corresponding French word in the grid, also completing a French vocabulary list for additional consolidation.

There is an answer grid for each word search, so that students can check their answers, or use for a little extra help if they need it. The answer keys help them develop independence in their learning, and also provide them with an additional opportunity to engage with the French vocabulary. The word searches and answer keys are in portrait format, with arrows indicating in which direction the individual words are located.

There is an alphabetical French-German Christmas vocabulary list which students find really helpful. There are two formats: search grids and answer keys together, so that they can be printed out and copied back-to-back, and search grids / answer keys as separate files.

The word searches are useful in a range of learning contexts - as bell ringers, starters, refreshers, finishers, fun-time fillers and for sub / cover lessons at any time during the Christmas / Holiday season.

The Lively Learning Classroom offers a wide range of French resources, including special offer bundles and freebies.
