work your way up to all the colours!
Introducing vocabulary
You can try this as an alternative to introducing vocabulary.
Make colour cards for and give each group/pair a set. Ask them to listen to the colour and look at the word and then hold up the colour they think it is.

Embedding the language tip
Use French colours for cooperative groups – les rouges, les bleus etc.
Ask pupils “c’est de quelle couleur?” when reading stories, creating art work etc.
Sample activities You will find a bank of sample activities which you can use to practise the vocabulary in the classroom.
This is not a prescriptive list of activities and you can use or adapt them to suit the needs of your class.

Apportez-moi…• For this activity, put pupils into rainbow groups
by giving each pupil a card which is either blue, red, green or yellow and asking them to form a group with 4 colours. They can also say their colour as they are moving around the class.
• Ask them to introduce themselves using Bonjour etc.
• Then teacher asks a different colour each time to bring them an object of a colour. E.g. La personne rouge, apportez moi un objet bleu!
Apportez-moi
1. Apportez-moi un objet means “Bring me an object”
2. Pupils work in teams/cooperative groups 3. Teacher calls out “Apportez moi un objet” and
adds a colour onto the end e.g. Apportez-moi un objet bleu
4. The pupils must race to give the teacher something that colour.
5. You can ask pupils to then say what colour it is e.g. C’est rouge.
6. Pupils can also then take a turn of asking others to “Apportez-moi un object….!”

Qu’est-ce qui manque?
• Qu’est-ce qui manque? means what’s missing?
• Pupils look at the colours on the following slides, close their eyes, teacher moves the slide on and one colour will disappear. Pupils then open their eyes and have to say which colour is missing.
• You can then get pupils to do the same activity in their groups.
Regardez les couleurs.

Asking the class their opinions on colours. Finish the sentence on each slide. You can play this as corners by putting up opinions in corners of the room and then asking pupils to move to an area of the room which matches their opinion of that colour.

Class colour survey1. Pupils can practice asking Tu aimes…+ a colour by
surveying each other around the class. This can then be linked to creating a graph, tally marks etc.
Tu aimes quelle couleur? Means which colour do you like? And could be used as a title for a graph.
Combien de personnes aiment le jaune? = How many people like yellow
