Teaching tips & learning objectives
Learning objectives
Students form comparatives and superlatives of superiority in French using plus...que and le/la/les plus.
Students form comparatives of equality in French using aussi...que and autant de/que.
Students distinguish when to use de versus que after autant/plus, depending on whether the comparison follows a noun quantity or an adjective/adverb.
Teaching tips
Review the difference between plus de + noun and plus...que + adjective before starting, since both exercises test blanks requiring de and que in different grammatical roles (page 1).
Use the completed 'Corrigés' page for self-correction or as a teacher answer reference (page 2).
Assign Exercise 1 and Exercise 2 as two shorter practice sets — superiority comparatives first, then equality comparatives — rather than one long worksheet.
Skills covered
Comparative/superlative formation — students insert plus...que, le/la/les plus, or plus de into ten French sentences (page 1, Exercise 1).
Comparative of equality — students insert aussi...que or autant de/que into ten French sentences (page 1, Exercise 2).
De versus que distinction — students choose between de (before a noun quantity) and que (before a comparison term) based on sentence structure.
