It doesn’t have to be hard to bring seasonal vocabulary into the classroom, but if you do, the work should be meaningful. Sure, it’s fun to decorate for the season, and all students love playing games, but isn’t it more effective when the new vocabulary helps them practice the skills you need to teach? Keep reading to learn about some French fall resources that help students practice the skills they need to be successful in Core French or French immersion.
French fall write the room activity
Sometimes it’s not easy to figure out just how to present new French vocabulary terms. Write the room is a fun activity that helps visual learners and provides movement while requiring students to write the words themselves.
Just place the word and image cards on the wall around the room. Give students a vocabulary sheet with the images of the words you’ll use. Then, have students go from card to card creating their own vocabulary lists. It’s a fun and engaging way to provide movement while you expose students to new French vocabulary words.

French speaking cards
Conjugating French verbs and learning new vocabulary are both really important in helping students become better communicators. However, if students are going to become more comfortable with the language, and in turn, more proficient, then they need plenty of opportunities to speak French during your class time.
These speaking cards are one of my favorite French fall resources, because they are a fun way to get even the most hesitant speakers to talk to their classmates. This set includes French conversation prompts for fall, Halloween, and Thanksgiving, so you can use them all throughout fall!
