Teaching tips & learning objectives
Learning objectives
Recall the irregular future-tense stem for 22 common French verbs (e.g., être → ser-, faire → fer-, avoir → aur-).
Translate French sentences using irregular future-tense verbs into accurate English.
Construct French sentences in the future tense, correctly pairing an irregular stem with the appropriate subject ending.
Teaching tips
Review the endings table and the 22-verb stem list together before assigning either exercise, since both exercises assume fluency with all 22 stems.
Assign Exercise 1 (French to English) before Exercise 2 (English to French), to practise interpreting the supplied forms before generating French forms.
Use the answer key's exact wording as a class discussion point where multiple natural English translations are possible (e.g., 'falloir' as 'to be necessary/must/have to/need to').
