10 stories of FRENCH monsters in a French setting...

Your classes will enjoy meeting Mademoiselle Myrtle, a French witch, and all the other monsters.

When she goes shopping, she just flies out of the shop without paying!

Follow her shopping trip in the French town where les Monstres live (Story 10), and see how she comes to a sticky end...

Author Rosemary Bevis believes:
"To learn a FL successfully the child must hear and repeat it continually, revisiting the language in different contexts."

In this collection of stories, young beginners will enjoy meeting language they know. They'll explore how much they can communicate with their small vocabulary.

Follow-up - teaching ideas for working with les Monstres

The Teacher's Guide has plenty of ideas for class activities to use the stories to complement and add variety to your language course.

It shows you can use the texts and content of the stories in line with the QCA MFL KS2 Framework - with references to particular strands, including Literacy, Oracy , Knowledge about Language and Inter-Cultural Understanding.
