AQA French Get Into Good Habits The key to been a successful language learner is to practice it little and often. Start doing these things today to ensure you get the grade you want at the end of your GCSE. Practice vocabulary: keep a vocabulary book, start making vocabulary flashcards or practice online using languagesonline, Senecalearning or quizlet. It doesn t matter which method you decide to use, just start doing it now! It is impossible to cram for a language exam. Aim to do 10 minutes of vocabulary 2 or 3 times a week to ensure you are confident for the exam. Grammar: learn your verb endings. Test yourself weekly. Again you could make flashcards or go online to practice. Grammar is key to been able to communicate in the writing & speaking exams. Make revision notes: when you finish a unit make a mind map/KO of language/phrases you could use in your writing & speaking exams Be organised: Keep your books tidy and any handouts organised into a folder. This will make your life much easier when it comes to revision time. Use your French: Read newspapers/magazines online. Listen to French music. Watch French films. Speak French. You can only get better at a language by practicing it!
