 * ~ Main Activity || * Revise greetings by encouraging children to greet partners in French using puppets:
 * Now introduce yourself to someone at a different table. //‘Bonjour,// //ça// //va?// // ça va // //bien. Je m’appelle… Comment t’appelles tu?’//
 * Revise numbers to 12. //(un, deux, trois, quatre, cinq, six, sept, huit, neuf. dix, onze, douze)// Can the puppets count up to 12? Alone? In pairs?
 * Revise //‘Quelle age as tu?’// (How old are you?) //‘J’ai huit ans’// (I am 8 years old). Use the puppets again to practise the question and answer.
 * As a class, match numbers to text (you can write the figures and text on the board and ask children to come up and join them) and then ask the children to write words 1 – 12 in French in their books. (Links to **L4.3** - some may be at a copying level, but others may have progressed further and be able to remember the words without having to copy) || * None needed
