KS3 & KS4 French curriculum

This unit allows pupils to apply their vocabulary and grammar knowledge in order to learn about the lives of famous French speakers and to enjoy a cultural exploration of Brussels. Negation and adjectival agreement and positioning are revisited along with word pattern rules, as pupils build greater confidence in applying these rules more accurately.
