A KS3 French icebreaker designed to ease students into the new year and to get them speaking to their classmates. Perfect for welcoming students back to school.

Students ask questions in French to find classmates matching the different descriptions on their sheet. The activity revisits accessible language around likes and dislikes, family, birthdays, travel, hobbies and personal information while encouraging genuine spoken interaction.

What’s included:

• A Find someone who worksheet featuring:
â—‹ 24 different descriptions to match with classmates
â—‹ Question prompts for support
â—‹ A short vocab list
â—‹ Available in PDF and PPTX, in colour and black-and-white versions

• A classroom presentation slide to support delivery, featuring:
â—‹ Clear instructions for the activity
â—‹ Question stems with English translations
â—‹ Support with masculine and feminine adjective forms
â—‹ Additional key vocabulary
â—‹ Available in PDF and non-editable PPTX

Designed for KS3 French first lessons, speaking practice and back-to-school activities, this resource also works well with KS4 classes as a quick, low-stakes speaking activity at the start of the year.

I hope you find it useful.
