This PowerPoint covers all the vocabulary from the ‘general vocabulary’ section of the AQA KS4/GCSE French vocabulary list for the new 2026 specification.
The slides are designed to be used for revision and starters or plenaries in general teaching. You can also use them with KS3 to ensure that they are seeing this core vocabulary as early as possible. They can also be used so that you can audit the vocabulary you already teach to help see what tweaks you may need to make to your existing SoW to ensure all the new content is covered. There are 204 slides in total (including 101 slides of vocabulary with another 101 slides of answers (the answer slide comes straight after the accompanying question slide). The answers appear on a mouse click.
The slides cover:
Adjectives (slides 3-32)
Adverbs (slides 33-52)
Conjunctions (slides 53-54)
Determiners, interjections and multi-word phrases (slides 55-72)

Across the 4 PPTs, all the vocab on the specification is covered.

Each duplicate of a word across themes has been removed but each entry shows which themes each word appears in. This resource is aimed at those who would rather tweak their existing schemes of work rather than invest in lots more expensive products. For each word there is a drop down menu to select whether it is currently covered in your KS3 SoW and/or your KS4 SoW. If Yes is selected, the entry will turn green, if No is selected, the entry will turn red. This means it is easy to see at a glance which words need to be embedded in schemes of work. Alternatively, you can type ‘Yes’ or ‘No’ but each must begin with a capital letter for the colour coding to work.
