Product description
From the author
This French Double Object / Adverbial Pronouns worksheet is a great supplement to your textbook's exercises. Students rewrite sentences replacing words in parentheses with pronouns (le / la / les / lui / leur / y / en). Sentences are in the present, passé composé, futur proche, futur simple, and imperative tenses. Some are negative, and some are affirmative.

Teaching tips & learning objectives
Learning objectives
Replace direct and indirect object nouns with the correct double pronouns (le/la/les/lui/leur) in a French sentence.
Use the pronouns y and en correctly for prepositional and partitive phrases.
Maintain the sentence's original tense -- présent, passé composé, futur proche, futur simple, or impératif -- while substituting pronouns.
Teaching tips
Point out the usage note on item 15 in the solutions page -- past-participle agreement is skipped there because "m'" functions as an indirect object, a common trap for students.
Assign the présent, passé composé, futur proche, futur simple, and impératif sentences separately if introducing double pronouns tense by tense rather than all at once.
Use the solutions page for self-checking or independent fast-finisher practice, since every one of the 20 sentences is fully worked.
Skills covered
Double object pronoun substitution -- students replace two noun phrases (e.g., "sa voiture" and "à son ami") with the correct paired pronouns, such as "la lui."
Adverbial pronoun use (y/en) -- students substitute prepositional and partitive phrases like "à l'école" and "des biscuits" with y and en.
Imperative pronoun placement -- students order pronouns correctly in commands, both affirmative ("Offre-les-lui") and negative ("Ne leur téléphonez pas").
Good to know
Questions teachers ask about this resource
Does the solutions page just give final answers, or explain the trickier ones?
Both -- most items list only the rewritten sentence, but item 15 adds a short note explaining why past-participle agreement is skipped, since "m'" functions as an indirect object rather than a direct one.
