Introduce students to les déterminants (le, la, l', les, une, un, des) with these activities designed for beginner French learners. Teach masculine and feminine nouns any time of year, even without French speaking skills and these are perfect to leave with your English speaking substitute teacher!

This resource is part of our Introductory French Full Year Bundle.

This introductory French lesson includes:

  • a complete lesson plan that includes reading, writing, listening and speaking activities written in English to practice determining masculine and feminine nouns. Instructions for how to modify the lessons are included in the plan.
  • background information about French and how to explain the use and context of phrases to students for non-native French speakers or teachers who are new to teaching French. This can be a challenging topic for French learners who only speak English as their other language.
  • several sorting activities to help students construct an understanding of feminine and masculine nouns in French.
  • colour by code activities.
  • activities that take five minutes or less to prepare.
  • opportunities for students to read, speak, listen and write in French.
  • flexible activities so you can pick and choose what you want to use or the ones your students need.
  • opportunities to draw, write, speak or perform in French.
  • student reference pages that you can post in the classroom or keep in student notebooks.
  • simple assessments for students to practice reading and writing.
  • student pages with instructions written in English and French.
  • answer keys and suggested answers.
  • photographs of student examples.
  • a set of French determiners as word wall words so you can use them as a reference throughout the school year.
  • a digital version for most of the activities. The digital version contains loose text that can be read by your assistive technology, but we cannot guarantee it will pronounce the text with the correct accent. To access the digital version, download the PDF and use the link in that file.
