Why this why now

In this unit pupils will secure and further develop their knowledge of the perfect tense, communicating within the new contexts of Francophone writing and sport. Having already revisited the present tense, pupils now ensure mastery of the perfect tense, essential for successful communication at KS4. They will respond to perfect tense texts and extend their own written and spoken production in this tense, whilst expanding their cultural knowledge of Francophone countries and personalities.

Prior knowledge requirements

  • Pupils know that the perfect tense refers to actions in the past.
  • Pupils know that the perfect tense can be formed with the auxiliary verbs avoir or être.
  • Pupils can recognise the past participles of verbs like prendre, choisir, entendre, partir and venir.
  • Pupils can recognise the irregular past participles eu, fait and bu.
  • Pupils know that questions can be formed using inversion, intonation or by using est-ce que.
  • Pupils know how to use ne...pas and ne...jamais to negate sentences.
