About this resource

What's inside this resource

"Tout sur moi" gives French learners a front-and-back get-to-know-you form written in French, with twelve cards that each open with a sentence starter such as Je m'appelle, J'aime… or Cette année, je veux apprendre à…. Students write their name and nickname, birthday and age, three describing words, likes and dislikes, something they are proud of, important people and animals with reasons, the languages they speak or are learning, an imaginary superpower and a favorite school subject. A drawing frame asks for a self-portrait during a favorite activity, and a short checklist shows how each student learns best.

A Mots utiles strip gives English meanings and masculine and feminine adjective pairs to help with agreement, and two short models show the date format and how le, la or les follow aimer. Designed for core French and French immersion students in grades 3–7.

Includes a full color PDF and a print-friendly black and white PDF.

Teaching tips & learning objectives

Learning objectives

Introduce oneself in French with name, age and birthday using given sentence starters
Express likes and dislikes with J'aime and Je n'aime pas followed by le, la or les
Choose describing adjectives with the correct masculine or feminine ending

Teaching tips

Read the Mots utiles strip aloud together before students write, so the adjective pairs and parce que are familiar.
Point out the two printed examples, the date and the J'aime model, as patterns students can follow.
Model the superpower card orally, since Avec ce pouvoir, je pourrais… uses a verb form beginners may not have met yet.

Skills covered

Writing about oneself in French: students complete sentence starters with personal details, preferences and goals.
Adjective agreement: students pick masculine or feminine forms such as curieux or curieuse to describe themselves.
Giving reasons: students explain choices about important people, animals and school subjects with parce que.

Good to know

Questions teachers ask about this resource

Are the directions in French or English?

The directions and prompts are in French. The Mots utiles strip on page 1 gives English meanings for key words, so beginners can work without a full translation.

How will students know how to say what they like and dislike?

A printed model shows J'aime les chats and Je n'aime pas la pluie, and thumbs-up and thumbs-down pictures mark each column, so students can follow the pattern with their own words.
