Activity 1: Presentation – Le Petit Déjeuner Part 1

The presentation introduces 9 items of food vocabulary.

Slides 4 to 12 introduce the picture + sound [click on the picture to hear the word].

Slides 13 to 22 can be used as reinforcement/practice; a picture appears and the student must say what it is; click on the picture to hear the word and check the answer.

Click on the little black figure [bottom right] to move to next slide.

Slides 24 to 32 : further practise with feedback; click on the duck in top left-hand corner which will ask the student to click on a picture. If they click on the wrong picture, they will hear the word for that picture. If correct, they will get a « Bravo » feedback'!

Remove the music if you find it annoying!
