A selection of 20 FREE clipart sets: Fall, Pumpkins, Halloween, and Thanksgiving!

Apparently, I'm not the only one with a clipart addiction. My selection of 30 FREE clipart sets for back-to-school is one of my most popular posts!

I'm back again with a new selection of FREE clipart sets. This time around I've selected some for fall, Halloween, and Thanksgiving.

Writing posts like this is my way of saying thanks to all clip artists who are SO generous with us! Thank YOU!

As before, I've selected sets from artists you might not know yet or sets from your favorite artists that you might have missed.

You can check out my latest clipart finds by following my Crazy for Clipart Pinterest board:

Free French eBook and 5 French websites every French teachers should know!

Salut! Hi everyone!
If you teach French, you know how tough it can be to find resources for your classroom. Of course, I'm talking about QUALITY resources. That's why a group of great teacher-authors has decided to put together a FREE French eBook of tips and links to freebies for the back-to-school season or should I say "pour la rentrée"? Laudalina from Profs et Soeurs is the mastermind of this amazing initiative and Ms. Joanne has been so generous to host the eBook. What about me? I was honored to organize it!

But before we get to the eBook, I would also like to share 5 FREE websites you can use for extra activities when teaching French. They are presented in no specific order and I'm not affiliated with any of them. I just really think they're very useful.

Here we go:

1. IL ÉTAIT UNE HISTOIRE...

This site has a LOT of stories for kids. It's well-organized into categories, e.g. "Contes et Légendes", "Fables et poésies",  etc, and the best part is that they present the text and give you the option of listening to a narrator reading it.
Oh, and the "Comptines et Chansons", of course, are sung!

The site can be used in so many ways in the classroom.

You can:
- have students listen to the narrator while reading the text during computer time
- play the audio to use it in listening comprehension activities
- just use the text for reading comprehension activities
- have students sing along the "comptines"

Click on the image above to check out one of the "Comptines et Chansons". This one is great to practice "les jours de la semaine".

2. FRANCE TV ÉDUCATION

This is a section of the site that is dedicated to education. It's got videos, texts, games about many subjects, such as "Histoire" and "Sciences".

They've also got quizzes to test the level of proficiency in French. Click on the image below to check out one of the quizzes.

3. BONJOUR DE FRANCE

They have several free online exercises you can have your students doing. They are identified with one of the six levels of the CEFR. Check out this simple quiz about "les animaux" (click on the image below).

4. BrainPOP

Next is BrainPOP. It's an amazing site with videos, quizzes and much more. It covers many subjects and it's fully animated. Click on the image below to check it out.

5. TV5 MONDE

Last but not least is the section of the TV5 website dedicated to "la langue française". There are a lot of resources from which to choose. They've also got sections for those who teach French and those who learn French.

My favorite section is "Les Fables de La Fontaine" with 8 fables with text and audio. Click on the image below to check them out.

And now, for our FREE French Back-to-School eBook! It is packed with tips and links to freebies by 15 teacher-authors.

There are FSL and FI resources for k-12. I'm sure you'll find something you can use in your classroom!

It's available on Teachers Pay Teachers. If you've never heard of Teachers Pay Teachers, or TpT as I prefer to call it, you have no idea what you're missing out. Click on the image for a FREE copy of the eBook.

A selection of 30 FREE clipart sets for back-to-school or year-round use

Here's a selection of FREE clipart sets that you can use to create your resources. I've chosen some sets that are related to the back-to-school season and other sets that can be used throughout the year.

They have not been downloaded a gazillion times YET (as I write this post), so you have the chance of using them before everyone else!

I can say that I'm totally addicted to clipart and I love discovering new artists as much as I love getting new items from my favorite sellers. I have even created a Pinterest board for clipart. Be sure to follow it if you want to be the first to know about a new seller or a new set (if you know me a little, you know I'm always on Pinterest).

Follow Lucy S.'s board Crazy for Clip Art (mostly free sets) on Pinterest.

I believe I'm going to introduce you to some artists you don't know yet, or show you some sets from your favorite artists that you might somehow have missed. Click on the images to check out their pages on Teachers Pay Teachers (note: the clipart set from Educasong can be downloaded from her website).
