Product description
From the author
This French language vocabulary crossword is about music! After filling the crossword, you will find a hidden message from the grey vertical row! This product is a print-and-go and ready-to-use pdf that includes answers. This resource is created for vocabulary building but you can of course use it as a part of a music lesson.
This resource is suitable for any student learning French, because the hints are given as pictures, you don’t even have to know these words in English! Some examples of the words are: le piano, les maracas, l’orchestre, la flûte. The hidden message in this crossword is: la musique c’est de l’art.
With French vocabulary, you have to consider if the word is feminine or masculine. In this puzzle I’ve solved this issue by printing the definite article ready for the crossword. This makes it easier for younger students to understand the crossword (meaning exactly one letter for each square) while still introducing the gender of each word. (Except for the words beginning with a vowel, I have used the correct spelling l’ at the expense of mentioning the gender.)
Filling the crossword: Students look at the pictures on the right side of the page. Each picture has a number. When they recognize the word in French, they should write the word into the corresponding horizontal row in the crossword one letter at a time. Don’t forget the accents!
This resource is suitable for individual work or small groups. This resource is at its best with students:
-Age 9 or older if French is a foreign language. In that case, students can use some dictionary or translator to support their work if needed
-For younger students if they have a strong background (For example, French spoken at home etc.)
