About this resource

What's inside this resource

Vocabulary practice made fun! This French #vocabulary #game practices 16 high-frequency #food and #drink words. Editable pages make it easy to add in extra words your learners are working on.

Learners will practice reading the French words saying "J'ai ____. Qui a____ ?". Then classmates will search their cards to see if they have the food or drink in question!

Repeated exposure is necessary for vocabulary retention. In addition, a QR code has been provided in the instructions. Simply point your phone or computer camera at the code to open a link to the Google Slides presentation. Pull up the corresponding photo for each vocabulary word to expose learners to 2+ photos of the object in question.

It's common knowledge that while tangible objects are best, realistic photos are next-best when teaching vocabulary. No more clip art or cartoons here! Use the realia presentation to introduce the vocabulary words as well as to support learners during the game. Play multiple rounds, and shuffle well to give extended practice!

With a minimum of 2 players, this game is perfect for pairs, small group, or whole-class practice with up to 16 players!

Words included in this pack are: le fromage, l'hamburger, le jus, la salade, la carotte, l'avocat, le pop-corn, le lait, le mais, l'ananas, la banane, la fraise, la pomme, le pain, le chocolat, and l'œuf.

This PDF download includes game instructions, the easy to use QR code link to the realia presentation, two pages to print, as well as a blank page for you to add in additional vocabulary words and drawings!

Be sure to check out additional "I Have, Who Has" vocabulary games in English, French, and Spanish: School and Classroom, Calendar: Days, Months, & Seasons, Food & Drink, Numbers 1-10, Colors, and Patterns, Weather & Landforms!
