Class Experience

In this Cycle we will build on the basic words and phrases students learned in Cycle 1 and 2. We work through a range of conversations that will enable you to communicate with sympathetic native French speakers and expand our vocabulary. I will introduce the passé composé and the immediate future tenses. The students will use and recognise these tenses in conversation and in writing. This Cycle we will also focus on the Paris Olympic Games, which will take place this summer.
