Differentiation
Pupils needing extra support: Can work in guided groups to label the house, and then practise short phrases using c’est une cuisine etc- it’s a kitchen, focusing on accurate pronunciation and recall.
Pupils working at greater depth: Challenge them to extend their sentences to include il y a – there is, and adjectives such as petit – small, and grand – big. To stretch them further, they can ask their partner a question, such as il y a un jardin? -is there a garden?
