The pdf files below are based on the 'Sacs en plastique' story, which is one of the 20 French stories available with a trial log-in on the Grow Story Grow website - http://www.growstorygrow.com
Grow Story Grow is an online language-learning library. There are over a 100 French animated stories in total (with animation and audio), each with interactive games, worksheets etc. The site also has stories in German, Spanish, English, Italian, Polish and Mandarin.
The idea behind the stories is that there is lots of repetition of high frequency words and structures, and each story has several levels of difficulty.
This particular story teaches / practises the following:
- numbers 1 to 5
- colours
- Voulez-vous...?
- Oui, s'il vous plaît / Non, merci
The story is also a good basis for discussion of the environmental impact of plastic bags.
The pdfs I've included here are in 2 groups.
First, some simple exercises based around colours and basic vocab...

Dominoes:
Pairs cards (large):
Write the French:
The others are based on the level 3 story from the site.
NB. The site is called GrowStoryGrow because most stories have multiple levels of difficulty, each level building on and adding to the previous level. (UK teachers: we're NOT talking NC levels here - rather different levels of the same story.)
