Vocabulary and transcripts for this lessons
Key learning points
- [tion] is pronounced as in 'attention'. [on] is pronounced as in 'non'.
- The Concorde was a project between France and the UK after the 2nd world war to build supersonic planes.
- Prepositions of place tell us where things are in relation to other things. Some like 'loin' need 'de' before the noun.
- Say French years the same as normal numbers, not split like in English. There is no –s after mille/cent in years.
- Prepositions of movement are used to translate ‘to’ and ‘from’; 'à' and 'de' can change before the definite article.
Keywords
Preposition - a word that is used before a noun, a noun phrase, or a pronoun, connecting it to another word
Common misconception
Words with [tion] are cognates, therefore pronounced the same in English and French.
Although [tion] words are usually cognates, the sound is different and useful to revisit regularly.
Teacher tip
The teacher might want to explore this lesson more by finding out what pupils know about Concorde, if they know anyone who flew on it and show more images and videos from online sources.
