ALEVEL FRENCH GCSE FRENCH PLUPERFECT TENSE CONJUGATION PRACTICE 25 high-frequency regular and irregular French verbs, 150 conjugation questions, 3 differentiated challenges, answer keys. My students really like this kind of grammar activity, as they like to work and learn independently, which is a successful way of varying teaching and learning methodologies - I’ve found it’s really important to avoid predominantly teacher-led learning in the languages classroom. The workbook is ideal for A Level French students who are beginning to work with more complex language and texts in French, and developing their knowledge of tense and mood in French.
The workbook focuses on formation and conjugation, rather than usage, though it’s definitely useful to remind students of a number of things when focusing on or revising tense and verb formation and conjugation. For example, language learners do often try to conflate what they know about grammar in their first language, with the grammar of the language they are learning, and with students whose first language is English , I frequently see students using avoir instead of être for verbs which require the auxiliary être. Students do need to to have a good grasp of the relevant auxiliary verbs in the imperfect tense to ensure that they can form the pluperfect tense accurately. In terms of the past participle, students begin to be able to predict it accurately, the more they see it, and construct it.
The resource has the following structure:
Two alphabetical verb reference lists: French-English and English-French.
Three conjugation challenges, each with 50 individual conjugations:
Conjugation Challenge 1: each verb conjugated in French across a range of pronouns, with students writing the corresponding English verb conjugation.
Conjugation Challenge 2: gives the infinitive of each verb in French, specifying the target pronoun. Students write the corresponding verb conjugation in French.
Conjugation Challenge 3: students write the corresponding French verb conjugation, and its infinitive, from an English prompt.
Notes and Next Steps template which students visit regularly - it really does encourage them to think about where they are now, how confident they feel, and what they might need to work on a little more to be absolutely sure of their conjugation skills.

The workbooks focus on formation and conjugation, rather than usage, though it’s definitely useful to remind students of a number of things when focusing on or revising tense and verb formation and conjugation. Language learners do often try to conflate what they know about grammar in their first / home language with that of the language they are learning. For example, students with ***English*** as a first language frequently use ***avoir*** instead of ***être*** in this tense, and working regularly with both the ***perfect and pluperfect tenses in French*** really helps them to learn which verbs require which particular auxiliary verb. ***Reflexives*** tend to require additional practice - firstly, the ***correct reflexive pronoun***, and secondly, its ***location within a clause or sentence in relation to the pronoun and verbs***. ***The verbs groups are:*** = regular French -ER verbs = French -RE verbs = French -IR & -OIR verbs = high-frequency French verbs = French reflexive verbs ***Each set is structured as follows***: ***Two alphabetical verb reference lists***: French-English and English-French. ***Three conjugation challenges***, each with 50 individual conjugations: ***Conjugation Challenge 1***: each verb conjugated in French across a range of pronouns, with students writing the corresponding English verb conjugation. ***Conjugation Challenge 2***: gives the infinitive of each verb in French, specifying the target pronoun.

It's a great tool to guide and inform whole-group discussion about learning and progress in general, which is a really successful and popular activity. ***answer key***: 6-page booklet which is absolutely essential in my view. Answer keys help students develop more independence in their learning, and provide them with an additional opportunity to engage with language and grammar. They also genuinely enjoy correcting their own - and particularly each others' - work. ***Have a browse in my store for more French grammar activities, with a wide range of French language teaching and learning materials, with French resourc boxes, special offer bundles, and lots of freebies too - I've added a couple here for you to try.*** **MERCI BEAUCOUP ET BONNE CONJUGAISON !**

The workbooks focus on the mechanics of conjugation, rather than usage, and I've found that when my students are able to provide the correct conjugation very quickly, and out of a specific context, they feel really confident that their conjugation skills are developing well. ***The workbooks focus on formation and conjugation, rather than usage***, though it’s definitely useful to remind students of a number of things when focusing on or revising tense and verb formation and conjugation. Language learners tend to conflate what they know about grammar in their first language with the grammar of the language they are learning. For example, with the ***imperfect tense in French***, students with *English* as a first language frequently use the construct***j'étais faire instead of je faisais as a translation of I was doing***. They also tend to look for a direct equivalent of the notion of ***used to...***, before they embed the knowledge that this is ***implicit in the tense itself.*** There are specific differences in usage between ***English and French*** with this tense, and I do always discuss this with students about this when we’re using the workbooks - I tend to work fairly simultaneously with ***le passé composé and l'imparfait***, because students are better able to understand correct usage when they look at a range of past tense contexts together, for example ***I have done, I did, I was doing, I used to do***. I refer frequently the difference in usage between ***English and French***, and this is important particularly when explaining when and in which contexts to use the ***imperfect tense in French***. Though the workbooks focus solely on the correct conjugation of verbs, and does not look at word order in the context of full sentences, there are ***conjugation patterns*** that students can ***learn, recognise and apply***, ensuring that their ***spoken and written French*** is accurate, and that their understanding of ***French*** across the skills of l***istening, speaking, reading and writing*** is robust. Students become very familiar and confident the more they work with conjugation, and these quick conjugations certainly help to embed that successfully. ***The tenses are:*** present tense *(le présent)* simple future tense *(le futur simple)* near future tense *(le futur proche)* perfect tense *(le passé composé)* imperfect tense *(l'imparfait)* conditional tense *(le conditionnel)* pluperfect tense *(le plus-que-parfait)* future perfect tense *(le futur antérieur)* conditional perfect tense *(le conditionnel passé)* ***Each set is structured as follows:*** ***Two alphabetical verb reference lists***: French-English and English-French. ***Three conjugation challenges***, each with 50 individual conjugations: ***Conjugation Challenge 1***: each verb conjugated in French across a range of pronouns, with students writing the corresponding English verb conjugation. ***Conjugation Challenge 2***: gives the infinitive of each verb in French, specifying the target pronoun.
