This French test (3xA4 pages) covers KS3 basics that GCSE groups should/must know ( numbers, weather, time, opinions, days of the week, different tenses conjugation, gender agreement, plurals, question words etc…)
I find it helpful when getting a new group to see which basics must be reviewed before starting the GCSE course.
Score /100
Recommended use:
This test can be given at the start of Year 10/Year11 as a baseline assessment.
It can be used at the end of Year 9 to check knowledge.
I usually give it to my Year 10s at the start of the year and I have them do it at the start of year 11 again.
