French Grammar Cheat Sheet - La Grammaire Française

Confession time. I am a grammar nerd. It goes against everything I do as a teacher, but I love it and it's how I learned French.

Now I teach using TPRS with whole language chunks and rarely do any explicit grammar teaching other than the prescribed popup grammar when a student is curious or when it makes sense.

It's what works for most of my students who aren't grammar nerds. BUT ... some of my kids feed into a grammar-based program when they leave me and some of my current students, (the ones who learn like me), are sponges of all things grammar. Ok ... maybe only a few a year ...

That's why I created this French Grammar Reference Guide. I give it to all of the students leaving my program and all of the mini-me's.

I also give them my French Verbs cheat sheet and they eat it up. I have students come back to visit me and tell me, "Mr. Wood, I wouldn't survive French this year without your cheat sheets." They would survive, but it makes me happy that it's useful.

I also hope it's useful to you. I know it doesn't include everything, but it has the basics, especially for beginning students. Included are Nouns, Articles (definite, indefinite, partitive), subject pronouns, interrogative pronouns (how to ask a question), adjectives and cardinal & ordinal numbers. The preview should show you everything in the final product.

It is a two page reference card that can be printed and copied double sided, hole punched and even laminated if you like. I have included the color version and a toner-friendly black & white version if you prefer.

Long live grammar nerds!
