Getting to Know You Activity for French Class Identity Practice


Help students talk about who they are with a creative getting-to-know-you activity for French class!

In this video, I share a flexible identity activity that works well at the beginning of the year, during an identity unit, or any time your class needs a change of pace. Students describe themselves “inside and out” while learning more about one another in French.

This activity can be adapted for French 2, French 3, or French 4, and students can make it their own with drawings, printed images, or personal photos.

In this video, I share how to:
Use a getting-to-know-you template in French class
Help students describe what they are like on the outside and inside
Adapt the activity with a paper bag or a poster format
Use the activity during identity units or community-building lessons
Give students creative options without requiring them to draw

Ways to use this activity:
Paper bag version: use both sides to show outside and inside traits
Poster version: create a more extensive visual identity project
Image option: let students cut out printed pictures or use their own photos
Community building: help students get to know one another in French

This is a practical way to bring identity, description, and personal expression into the French classroom while giving students room to be creative.

Perfect for:
· French 2 classes
· French 3 classes
· French 4 classes
· Beginning-of-the-year activities
· Identity units
· Getting-to-know-you lessons
· Creative French class projects
· World-language classroom community building
