Description

Teach the passé composé with être with a complete French past tense lesson, printable notes, practice activities, a contextual reading, and a PowerPoint. Students learn formation and agreement, practice past participles, read about the French Revolution, and apply the tense in a guided weekend-trip writing task. An answer key is included for efficient teaching and review.

Many textbooks do not include enough examples of the passé composé, or they don't show the passé composé used in use in any meaningful way. This French grammar lesson plan will guide your students by introducing the most basic concept then building on it with examples and practice activities.  Students are then challenged to "level up" by using the passé composé with être to write about a weekend trip to visit grandparents. 

This item includes:

  • Printable pdf handouts for students -
  • explanation of how to form the passé composé with être
  • Practice activity for forming the passé composé with être
  • Practice activity for irregular past participles
  • "Level Up" activity - complete paragraphs about different people by changing the verb forms
  • Reading activity about the French Revolution
  • Answer key
  • PowerPoint that includes explanation of the grammar on the printables and the reading passage
