Product description

From the author

This is an exercise on French demonstrative adjectives CE - CET - CETTE - CES that can be used as a practice worksheet or as a quiz. There are 30 fill in the blank sentences that you can print on the front and back of one sheet of paper. Two versions and an answer sheet are included.

Version 1: Includes helpful hints (number and gender of the noun in question are indicated). Works great as a practice worksheet.

Version 2: No helpful hints are included. Works great as a quiz.

Teaching tips & learning objectives

Learning objectives

  • Select the correct French demonstrative adjective (ce, cet, cette, or ces) based on a noun's gender, number, and the initial sound of the immediately following word for masculine singular ce/cet.

  • Apply demonstrative-adjective agreement across 30 varied sentences covering masculine, feminine, singular and plural nouns.

  • Self-check answers, or take the unhinted version as a quiz, using the included answer key.

Teaching tips

  • Assign the hinted worksheet first for practice, then the unhinted version later as a quiz, since both cover the identical 30 sentences.

  • Review the four forms (ce, cet, cette, ces) before assigning either worksheet, since the file itself moves straight into practice sentences without restating the rules first.

  • Contrast “cet écureuil” with sentence 20’s “ce petit écureuil”: cet depends on the immediately following word’s vowel sound or mute h, not a later noun across an adjective.

Skills covered

  • Demonstrative adjective agreement — students select ce, cet, cette, or ces to match each noun's gender and number across 30 sentences.

  • Vowel-sound exception — several sentences (ordinateur, abricot, appareil) test the cet-before-vowel-sound rule for masculine nouns.

  • Self-assessment — students can compare their answers, or complete the unhinted version as a quiz, against the included answer key.

Good to know

Questions teachers ask about this resource

What's the difference between the two worksheet versions?

The hinted version prints each noun's gender and number (ms, fs, mp, fp) beside the blank; the unhinted version omits that cue and uses the identical 30 sentences, making it suitable as a quiz.
