Inside the 38-page teaching guide, you'll find daily lesson plans (in English, for you or a sub!), classroom management tips, printables, games, partner scripts, food ordering practice, and themed worksheets that cover real-world scenarios like:

• How many tickets each ride costs

• Naming different rides (manèges) in French

• Ordering snacks at the casse-croûte

• Explaining ride preferences

• Measuring height to see who can ride what

• Planning a day at the park

• Role plays and skits to practice key questions and responses

  
  

A multi-page French/English student dictionary supports every task and introduces fresh, conversational phrases your students can actually use.

The included 43-slide Google Slides deck is bright, visual, and easy to follow, with embedded instructions, games, discussion prompts, and movement breaks to keep students engaged and speaking in French every day.

Built for a game-based classroom model, every day includes low-prep speaking and active learning tasks that blend vocabulary, conversation, and fun.

With enough content for 3+ weeks of instruction, this unit is completely ready to go – just print, project, and teach!

For goodness sakes, don't forget to have fun!
