French invitations, likes/dislikes, ER verbs – Novice Low Beginning French escape game

This beginning French escape room is a game that your students will be able to play in the very first months of French level 1 – it is about French invitations and talking about your likes and dislikes.  They will use their language skills to find try to win a pair of tickets to a Beyoncé concert.

In order to do this activity, students need to know:

• How to talk about likes and dislikes in French
• How to make, accept and reject invitations
• The ER verb endings for je, tu, il/elle and ils/elles forms

The students will use their reading, listening, and writing skills to complete the tasks. There are 5 different tasks to complete, each one allowing them to practice talking about likes, dislikes and activities and French invitations.

The tasks include:

• Identify each person by their preferred activities (reading)
• Put items in the order of love to hate based on audio (listening)
• Determine whether a person would accept or reject an invitation based on their likes (reading)
• Complete a passage with the correct ER verb endings (writing)
• Determine what activity an invitation is for and whether it is accepted or rejected (listening)

At the end of the game, once they have completed the tasks they will see a congratulations screen with the two concert tickets. You will want them to take a screenshot to share with you as proof that they have completed the game.

The game is hosted in genial.ly – so no Google forms, and students don’t need to log in (other than typing their name at the beginning of the game). It is self-grading and students can’t move on to the next task until they’ve successfully completed the first one. No prep – just share the link with your students and they can start the game.
