Expertly structured for Pearson Edexcel GCSE 9-1 French, this Student Book helps learners use the language independently and to the best of their ability, with fresh, engaging cultural content throughout. A carefully designed programme teaches the ‘building blocks’ of French grammar and vocabulary, revisiting and recycling key concepts across topics to embed understanding and allow practice in different contexts, while boosting motivation by encouraging students to “learn something new”. Popular topics, transactional language and real-life contexts connect throughout to French culture, and deliberate overlap in demand with the Foundation tier book means all abilities can access content in both books – helping you judge which tier suits each learner. ‘Point de depart’ units smooth the transition from KS3, with each unit and module structured for gradual progression so every student can access some content in every section. Authentic materials and literary texts build familiarity and confidence with unfamiliar vocabulary, and an equal focus across all four skills – reinforced through translation activities – helps grammar and vocabulary learning stick as students move between reading, listening, speaking and writing. Exam preparation units cover Reading, Writing, Speaking and Listening, and a final revision module supports class-based preparation for the new assessments. Audio files to accompany the Student Books are sold separately.
