Description

In this unit, pupils use singular 'aller' to go, going. Focusing on another Francophone location, Canada, pupils use 'où est-ce que' and prepositions 'dans' and 'à' to ask and answer questions about location and destination. Complementary words are places in the town and points of the compass.

This unit introduces pupils to singular forms of the high frequency verb 'aller' to go, going. Important complementary knowledge that 'dans' and 'à' can both mean 'in' and 'to', depending on the verb used in the sentence, 'aller' or 'être' is introduced, alongside points of the compass. Having already learnt the structure 'est-ce que' for yes/no questions, pupils now add the interrogative 'où' to ask and answer questions about location and destination. Phonics for this unit appropriately contrast ai with a and (a)in.

  1. Canada: 'je vais' and 'il, elle va'
  2. Canada: 'dans' and 'à' both meaning 'in' and 'to'
  3. Places in town: 'tu vas'

  • Pupils have secure knowledge of the verb 'être' in the present tense.
  • Pupils know how to use 'est-ce que' to ask yes/no questions.
