Teaching tips & learning objectives

Learning objectives

  • Differentiate a verbal phrase with de from a prepositional phrase with de

  • Choose DONT for an appropriate verbal construction

  • Select the agreeing form of DUQUEL after a prepositional phrase

Teaching tips

  • Label the de phrase as verbal or prepositional before choosing a relative pronoun.

  • When DUQUEL is required, identify the antecedent's gender and number before selecting its form.

  • Complete the thirty items without the corrected opening pages visible, then use the bilingual set for review.

Skills covered

  • French syntax analysis — the governing de construction determines the pronoun family.

  • Relative-pronoun selection — DONT is contrasted with DUQUEL and its agreeing forms.

  • Gender and number agreement — DUQUEL changes to match the antecedent.
