Why this why now

This unit builds on two-verb structures using aller and infinitive and modal verbs with infinitive. Pupils apply known vocabulary in new contexts of future plans, and talking and writing about work experience. Pupils now use negation more confidently with two-verb structures and add 'il faut/il ne faut pas' to their repertoire in talking about rules and expectations at work and preparing for a job interview. Word patterns are consolidated and feminine adjective agreement rules extended and cultural enrichment provided on the goals and ambitions of a France national team football player.
