I have developed this resource from having designed my own worksheets from the Cambridge IGCSE textbook (2015 edition) into a workbook. The listening activites follow the whole book from units 1-15 and most of them are differentiated between lower level and higher level activities, however as the book progresses, the less the lower level activites become available as I strongly encourage my students to undertake the same level of work upon entering the second year of the IGCSE programme, as the examinations are going to be at the same level. Before you purchase this resource, please note that these resources are designed from and follow the Cambridge IGCSE 2015 edition and the NOT the newest 2017 edition. When buying this resource, please make sure you already have access to the Cambridge IGCSE French listening files 2015 edition, as this resource does not include the listening files and it is against copyright for me to upload them. Happy teaching and learning!

This activity basically describes more functions of the subjunctive in a nutshell in terms of importance and desire and it contains step by step methods as to how to form it. Part 2 solely focuses on how to form regular ‘-ir’ verbs in the subjunctive mood. Accompanied with this resource, is a unique workbook, in which the expressions using expressions of importance and desire are incorporated in the form of a cartoon story where the students search for the expressions used.

Welcome to the first installment of the advanced series for adults who are studying French, published by Palmer Language Services. At this level, students are beginning to adopt a more independent approach in their studies and tend to evade from the use of their mother-tongue language influence, thus the use of extracting material from texts. This resource extensively explores the unique life and story of Jeanne Louise Calment who lived to an incredible age of 122 years and 164 days and she was only verified human being to have lived to such an age. She also outlived both her daughter and grandson by several decades. The introduction of the subjunctive, using the verbs ‘avoir’ and ‘être’ are also incorporated in this activity, in addition to using them as auxiliary verbs when the perfect subjunctive is formed. Initially, before reading the text, students should be asked in French if they have any knowledge about Jeanne Calment and if so, what do they know about her. Students should then read the text out loud and then complete the subsequent activities which follow. This resource also incorporates all four key skills such as listening, reading, writing and speaking, in addition to an array of grammar activities. The good news is that you don’t have any particular need to make any preparatory planning, prior to teaching this topic as all the material contained is self-explanatory, which will enable the students to think for themselves.
