Introduction for parents and pupils:

Bonjour!

Here is your French revision pack for your upcoming autumn exams.
Please don’t worry too much, the best thing to do is little and often.
The exam will be fun and will allow you to show off all that you have
learnt so far this year.
Just do your best and put in the same brilliant effort that you do in
class.

Bon Courage!
Vocabulary
Revision tips
Look, say, cover, write, check.

Learn this French words as you would your English spellings. Use the 5 steps below to learn how to spell
any word.

     1. LOOK – Look carefully at the word for at least 10 seconds.

     2. SAY – Say the word to yourself or out loud to practise pronunciations.

     3. COVER – Cover up the word when you feel that you have learned it.

     4. WRITE – Write the word from memory.

     5. CHECK – Check the word against the original. Did you get it right? If not, what did you get wrong?
        Spend time learning that bit of the word again. Try again until you get it right.

Cognates

Cognates are words that look similar in French and in English. Try to use these cognates to help you revise
– but be careful with spellings! Sometimes there are little differences for example: Afrique     Africa

Phonics

Like in English French words have sound patterns too. These patterns contain the same letters,
remembering these phonics will help you to spell words correctly. While revising you could write lists of
words that sound similar:

Pêche                                       Patinoire

Planche                                     Voile

Post-it Notes

Still struggling to remember those tricky spellings, or those verbs? Try writing them out on post-it notes
and sticking these notes somewhere you will see them 3 or 4 times a day. On the mirror? On your lap-top?
On your wardrobe door?

Show off

An exam is your chance to show off everything that you know about a topic – so add colour, size and use a
variety of vocabulary etc. at every opportunity to show the examiner how great you are!
N.B: Remember that le/la/ les = the

 To say ‘a’ = le  un

                   la  une

BUT! You will also be asked to write a small text about answering questions about what there is in
your town and where you like to go. Have a look over this example and see how much you
understand and think whether you could write something similar.

Bonjour,

Je m’appelle Sébastien.

J’habite à Caen dans le nord de la France. Dans ma ville il y a beaucoup de cafés et
de musées mais ici il n’y a pas de piscine. C’est nul parce que j’adore nager ! Il y a
aussi une grande bibliothèque.

Qu’est-ce qu’il y a dans ta ville ?

J’adore ma ville, j’aime aller à la patinoire, cependant je déteste aller aux magasins
avec ma mère – c’est ennuyeux !

Où aimes-tu aller dans ta ville ?

Au revoir

Sébastien.
A toi! Answer Sébastien’s email – use all the information in this booklet to help you
check structures and spellings.
