Increase control of regular and irregular elements of spoken and written French, using elements such as pitch, pace and gestures to maintain momentum, liaisons and accents
(ACLFRU084)

Increase control of context-related vocabulary and extend knowledge of grammatical elements, including:

• understanding the function of verb tenses to situate events in time, for example, Ils vont partir demain matin; Je suis allée en France quand j’avais six ans and to express intention or desire, for example, Je voudrais bien aller à Tunis avec toi l’année prochaine !
• recognising variations in conjugation for verbs such as nettoyer, envoyer, essayer, appeler, acheter, manger, for example, nous mangeons, j’essaie
• consolidating the use of le passé composé, using verbs conjugated with être as the auxiliary that involve agreement between subject and past participle, for example, Elles sont parties hier matin
• using l’imparfait to distinguish between a completed and a continuing action in the past, for example, Nous étions déjà au lit quand Papa a téléphoné
• understanding the function of the reflexive pronoun and practising using the reflexive verb structure, for example, Je me suis levée à sept heures; Je me suis entraînée…
• understanding the function and use of relative pronouns such as qui, que, dont
