Can anyone suggest a cd of simple French songs that i could buy really quickly? I particularly need one for numbers 1 - 10, the children need something to help them chant.
Failing that, a game other than bingo to help them with numbers.

Un, deux, j'ai pondu deux oeufs

1, 2, j'ai pondu deux oeufs dit la poule bleue
1, 2, 3, j'en ai pondu trois répond l'oie
4, 5, 6, 7, j'en ai pondu sept s'écrie la poulette
8 et 9 qu'il est beau mon oeuf !

or this one:

1,2, 3
Le chat n'est pas là
1, 2, 3
Sautez dans mes bras!

or this one:

1, 2, 3, nous avons un gros chat
4, 5, 6, il a de longues griffes
7, 8, 9, il a mangé un oeuf
10, 11, 12, il est blanc et rouge.

Noughts and Crosses

Draw a noughts and crosses grid on the board and fill it with numbers, e.g.

Now split the class into two teams (one team is labelled "Noughts" and the other "Crosses"). A child from "Noughts" should choose a number and say what that number is in French. If they get it right, the teacher can draw a nought over the number on the grid. This process is repeated for "Crosses", and if the answer is correct, a cross can be drawn over the number. Each team has a turn, and the game is won when a straight line of three noughts / crosses is drawn on the board.

edit: adapt to a 'connect 4' style grid? - btw you're only going to want to use the numbers 1 - 20 Wink

thanks Dadenuk. Can you tell me the tune(s) you use for the chanting?
Love the noughts and crosses. We have only done 1 to 12, but the game still lends itself to that. Usually I do something that involves the kids forming a circle, last week it was throwing large foam dice and saying the number rolled in french. But those that had a turn started getting too chatty.
