- Quick on the draw
- Pupils form two teams on either side of the room.
- The teacher calls out a phrase with a subject pronoun and an -er verb (for example, il and manger – to eat).
- The first children in each team go head to head to be the first to call out the correct phrase in French (in this case, il mange).
- The winner goes to the back of their team line for another go and the loser sits down.
- Play continues until one team runs out of players.
