Le Passé simple: Livret de conjugaison junior/intermédiaire/secondaire

• No prep, print and teach, or use as an online resource for distance learning.- Introduce your students to the French literary past, Le passé simple. This booklet is an excellent introduction to the tense. We often encourage our students to read in French, however, often novels and pieces of writing that they like are linguistically unaccessible for immersion students. Part of the reason may be attributed to the fact that very few French Immersion students get in-class exposure to the Passé simple. This verb tense, although strange for some immersion students is by no means difficult, and its usefulness is often overlooked. Help your students better understand French texts, be they novels, narrations, short stories, history handouts/textbooks by exposing them to this literary tense.

In this package you will find exercises with étre/avoir in the futur simple, er verbs, 2nd group ir verbs, and 3rd group irregular verbs. A helpful comparison table between the passé simple, imparfait and the passé composé is included, as well as the answer key to the exercises. I personally had my grade 6 Middle Immersion students thrive with the passé simple and they were surprised, afterwards, how more accessible and less frustrating reading in French ended up being. -
