Teaching tips & learning objectives

Learning objectives

  • Match a written French number word to the correct numeral from three close alternatives

  • Write selected numerals up to 100 out in full in French

  • Read the higher French numbers built by addition and multiplication, from Soixante et onze and Soixante dix sept to Quatre vingt huit and Quatre vingt onze

Teaching tips

  • The set is ordered recognition first, production second: the five circling pages come before the five writing pages, so a class can be checked on reading the words before being asked to spell them

  • The number words are printed without hyphens throughout - Quatre vingt cinq, Trente et un - so decide in advance whether hyphenated spellings are required in the students' own written answers

  • Only the first page carries Name and Class lines, which is worth knowing if the ten pages are handed out as separate sheets rather than as a booklet

Skills covered

  • Reading French number words - five pages ask students to pick the numeral that matches a written word, from Sept and Onze up to Nonante huit.

  • Writing numbers in full in French - five pages give a numeral and a blank, covering 3 to 100 across fifty items.

  • Decoding compound numbers - words such as Soixante et onze, Soixante dix sept and Quatre vingt onze require the parts to be read together rather than separately.

Good to know

Questions teachers ask about this resource

Which French counting system do the number words use?

Both of them. Septante and nonante appear repeatedly - Septante cinq, Nonante six, Nonante deux, Nonante quatre, Nonante huit - which are the Belgian and Swiss forms for seventy and ninety. The same pages also use the standard French constructions, including Soixante dix sept, Soixante et onze, Quatre vingt cinq and Quatre vingt onze. Anyone teaching one system exclusively will want to look through each page first.

How do the two halves of the set differ?

The first five pages are recognition: a French number word is given with three numerals to circle between. The last five reverse it - a numeral is printed and the student writes it out in full, under the instruction "Ecrivez le nombre en toutes lettres". Reading the words therefore comes before producing them.

What range do the items cover?

The writing items range from three to one hundred. The recognition pages run from Huit and Onze up to Quatre vingt onze and Nonante huit, and the writing pages include 100 itself alongside single digits. One item on the fifth page sits outside that pattern: it gives the word "Beaucoup" with the options 100, 109 and 111, which is a quantity word rather than a number word.
