This Décris les monstres Google Slides™ product includes three different writing tasks to help your students improve their French writing skills using vocabulary related to body parts, numbers, and colours.
In the first section, students are to describe 5 different monsters while being provided with sentence starters to scaffold their writing. Eventually, they are provided with less prompts to assess whether they can enhance their writing on their own.
In the second section, students are given 5 more monsters to describe and are expected to write at least 5 sentences independently, without sentence starters or prompts, using the knowledge they previously learned from the first task.
In the third and final section, students will design their own monster by copying and pasting the body part images from the following slides. Once they finish their design, they are to write a paragraph about their own monster that they created themselves. At the end of this assignment, I like to have my students present their monster and paragraph to the class.
This activity usually takes my students over a week to complete. It is perfect summative task that can be used for distance or in-person learning. The text boxes are already provided on each slide for your students to type directly on. There is an example provided at the start of the first section and each section includes a Slide with instructions in order to clearly outline the expectations of each task for you and your students.
This is also a great resource to get your students into the Halloween spirit in your French classroom!
