French Speaking Game Bundle: similar to J’ai… Qui a…?

J’ai… Qui a…? is a fun game and it’s great for introducing and practicing new words. I’m not disputing that.

However, it can get too repetitive after you’ve played it, like, a million times.

And while “J’ai” is a super important structure, there are many other structures you could reinforce with the same game structure.

That’s what I had in mind when I came up with the games in my new bundle.

The structure of the games is exactly the same as “J’ai… Qui a…?”: students ask and answer questions according to the cards they’re holding until they read from all the cards.

Something like:

– J’ai un chat. Qui a un singe?

– J’ai un singe. Qui a un oiseau?

– J’ai un oiseau. Qui a un poisson?

and so on.

But instead of using just “J’ai… Qui a…?, I’m using other sentences.

For example, to practice vocabulary words for fruits and vegetables, the sentence is “Je mange”.

So it would play like:

– Je mange une pomme. Qui mange une banane?

– Je mange une banane. Qui mange du melon?

etc.

I’ve also created a set to practice sentences with ER verbs.

I’ve tried to come up with sentences people would actually use in real-life, or at least the structure of sentences they would.

If you want your students to practice words for places in the city, what would be more useful for them to say?

A) “J’ai une école. Qui a un parc?”

B)”Je vais à l’école. Qui va au parc?”

Well, alternative B sounds more like something people would say, doesn’t it? That’s the kind of sentence I’ve included in the cards.

You can purchase these games from my TpT store.

Save yourself money by grabbing the bundle, or grab the individual sets if you prefer (find the links to individual sets in the bundle listing).

Each topic includes 2 sets of 24 cards in color and B&W. The sentences in both sets is the same, but the order differs. In addition, the second set is slightly more challenging than the first one because students need to complete the answers based on the illustrations.

I’ve also included a “lexique” with the images and words used in each set (see example in image below)
