Lesson Details

Key learning points

[au/eau] sounds like 'gauche', [ou] sounds like 'nous', [u] sounds like 'tu', [ch] sounds like 'chercher'.
Extended reading texts can be exploited to enrich our vocabulary and use of complex structures.
Writing task instructions must be read carefully and answers planned to ensure coverage of all the main points.

Common misconception

[ch] is pronounced the same in French as it is in English.

[ch] is a softer sound in French and students will need directed practice in order to pronounce it correctly. It is more like the sound 'sh' in English.
