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?

                                    the hour). Then we add

When adding an opinion about something, you need to remember to add the
correct version of the word ‘THE’. These are in brackets after the words above.

                                                              But =
                                                              mais

        Therefore, if I wanted to say “ I hate rugby, but I love football” =

                   “Je déteste le rugby, mais j’adore le foot”

To extend yourself :

Try using the following comparatives to make your writing more interesting!

      Plus = more                  moins = less               que = than

      E.g. J’aime le tennis parce que c’est plus intéressant que les cartes.

  1. I like ice hockey because it’s more fun than chess.

   2. I don’t like volleyball because it is less interesting than basketball.

J’aime ( I like)

Je n’aime pas (I don’t like)

Je déteste (I hate)

What will be in the exam ?
The exam will mostly focus on what we have done in Unit 5 and 6 (all the vocabulary here!)

BUT! You will also be asked to write a small text about your daily routine and school life. Have a look over
your work that you have written in your exercise books to help you prepare.

What can I do if I know all the vocabulary?
At the back of this pack there are the revision pages for this topic, there are blank pages for you to try and
then there are the answer sheets. Give them a go and then check your answers.
