🤖AI as Your French-Lesson Planning Partner This week, we’re exploring how AI can help us create engaging French lessons—while keeping the teacher’s creativity, experience and knowledge at the heart of every decision. AI can help us: ✨ Generate vocabulary and sentence starters ✨ Differentiate one activity for several levels ✨ Create speaking questions and role-plays ✨ Adapt a text for different readers ✨ Design quick review games or exit tickets 💡 Try this prompt: “Create a 30-minute French lesson about __________ for Grade ___. Include a warm-up, key vocabulary, a speaking activity with three levels of support, and a quick exit ticket.” Remember: AI provides the first draft. You bring the heart, judgment and understanding of your students. ❤️ 👇 Your turn: What French lesson or topic would you like AI to help you create this week? Let’s learn, experiment and save some precious planning time together! 🍎✨ 🌟 Monday — Le thème de la semaine

I’m really happy to see you joining Entre Profs all the way from Walsall! I saw that you’re learning French yourself and joined out of curiosity, which I love. Even though the community is mainly for teachers and people supporting French learners, I think having the perspective of someone who is actually learning the language can bring something really interesting to the conversations. Please make yourself at home, explore the resources, and feel free to share what helps you learn French, what you find challenging, and what keeps you motivated. And since you’re building your own Skool group around learning French too, I’d also be curious to hear more about what you’re creating. Très contente de t’accueillir parmi nous, Mikolaj! 🍎

Three levels of support. Less prep time. 🍎 Copy this into your favourite AI tool: ✨ Prompt: Adapt this French text or activity into three versions while keeping the same topic and learning goal: 🌱 Emerging — simpler language, shorter sentences, vocabulary support 🌿 Developing — some support, complete sentences, discussion questions 🌳 Confident — richer language, open-ended questions, extra challenge 💡 Try it with les loisirs, la nourriture, la météo, la francophonie — or whatever you’re working on. One topic. Different entry points. ❤️ 👇 What topic would you try it with?

Have you tried Diffit Diffit for Teachers yet? 🍎 Diffit is an AI-powered tool designed specifically for teachers — and it can be especially helpful when you have different ability levels in the same classroom. You can start with a topic, text, PDF or other teaching material and use Diffit to help create: 📖 Adapted reading passages 🌱 Materials for different levels 📝 Comprehension questions 🔤 Vocabulary support 💬 Sentence starters and scaffolds 📊 Graphic organizers 🎟️ Exit tickets and activities 💡 French teacher idea: Take one French reading text and create supported versions for your 🌱 emerging, 🌿 developing and 🌳 confident readers — while keeping everyone working on the same topic. That can mean less time creating three completely different lessons and more time actually teaching. ❤️ ✨ There is a free version for teachers. 👉 Try it: How to get started on Diffit – Help Center 👇 Have you used Diffit? If yes, what do you use it for? If not, would you try it with your French class?

One simple way to get better results from AI? 👉 Tell it who it should be before telling it what to do. Instead of writing: ❌ Create a French speaking activity. Try: ✅ You are an experienced Grade 5 French teacher working with mixed-level learners. Create a 10-minute speaking activity about weekend activities. Include support for 🌱 emerging, 🌿 developing and 🌳 confident speakers. Why does this help? When you give AI a clear role, grade level, subject and student needs, it has much more context — which usually means the result is more useful and requires less editing. 🍎 Try this simple prompt formula: You are a [role] working with [grade/level]. Create [task] for students who [needs/context]. Include [specific supports or requirements]. ✨ Example: You are an experienced Grade 6 Core French teacher. Create a partner speaking activity about food for a mixed-level class. Include sentence starters, key vocabulary and three levels of challenge. Small change. Much better prompt. 💡 👇 Have you tried giving AI a role first? What role would you give it for your classroom?
