Teaching tips & learning objectives
Learning objectives
Convert a sentence written in the futur proche (aller + infinitive) into the equivalent futur simple form.
Apply futur simple conjugation correctly across both regular and irregular verb stems.
Sustain the futur proche-to-futur simple conversion across negated and inverted-question sentence structures, not only simple statements.
Teaching tips
Review irregular futur simple stems (e.g., aller -> ir-, avoir -> aur-, etre -> ser-, faire -> fer-, pouvoir -> pourr-, vouloir -> voudr-, devoir -> devr-, venir -> viendr-) before assigning the worksheet, since more than half of the 15 sentences use an irregular verb.
Flag sentences 10 and 15 as harder items in advance — they combine an inverted or negated question structure with an irregular verb, testing two skills at once.
Use the included Corrige page as a self-check step or for peer correction, since it mirrors the worksheet's exact sentence numbering.
Skills covered
Futur proche to futur simple conversion — students transform each of 15 sentences from the near-future periphrastic form into the simple future tense.
Irregular verb conjugation in the futur simple — the sentence set deliberately draws on irregular stems (aller, avoir, etre, faire, pouvoir, vouloir, devoir, venir) rather than only regular -er/-ir/-re verbs.
Sentence-structure flexibility — the same conversion skill is applied inside negated sentences and inverted-question word order, not only declarative statements.
Good to know
Questions teachers ask about this resource
Does the worksheet only use regular verbs, or are irregular verbs included too?
Both. The 15 sentences mix regular verbs with irregular ones such as aller, avoir, etre, faire, pouvoir, vouloir, devoir, and venir, so students practice the futur simple's irregular stem changes alongside the regular pattern.
Is this worksheet only simple statements, or does it include other sentence types?
It includes other sentence types. Alongside declarative statements, the set has at least one negated sentence and two sentences using inverted-question word order, so students must apply the same verb-conversion skill inside more complex sentence structures.
