OBJECTIFS: To know how to form the proper future tense (“will” not “going to”). To practise listening and speaking skills.

Le futur: Read the phrases in the future tense. Discuss the meaning and any patterns you notice. L’année prochaine je visiterai Paris avec ma famille. Je voyagerai en Eurostar et je resterai dans un hôtel de luxe au centre-ville. Pendant la journée je verrai les monuments historiques tels que la Tour Eiffel et je visiterai les musées comme le Louvre. L’après-midi je ferai du shopping – j’acheterai des vêtements et des bijoux. Le soir, j’irai au restaurant, où je mangerai de la bonne cuisine française.

Future tense To say someone is “going to” do something, use aller + the infinitive. eg: Je vais jouer. On va jouer. To say someone “will” do something, use the infinitive + the ending ai (for “je”) and a (for “il”, “elle” or “on). eg: je jouerai on jouera Common mistake – “will” There is no word for “will” in the future tense in French. Please don’t write “je testament aller”!

Translation task Le week-end prochain j’irai à Londres avec mes copains. On voyagera en train et on écoutera de la musique en route. Le voyage durera environ deux heures. Samedi, on visitera le Palais de Buckingham, et on fera du shopping à Oxford Street. J’achèterai des vêtements et des souvenirs. Le soir, on regardera Billy Elliott au théâtre – ce sera génial! Dimanche, mes copains visiteront Madame Toussauds, mais à mon avis c’est trop cher, donc je visiterai le British Museum parce que c’est gratuit et c’est très intéressant. L’après-midi, on prendra le train et on retournera à Nottingham.

La réponse. Next weekend I will go to London with my friends. We will travel by train and we will listen to music on the way. The journey will last around two hours. On Saturday, we will visit Buckingham Palace, and we will go shopping on Oxford Street. I will buy clothes and souvenirs. In the evening, we will watch Billy Elliot at the theatre – it will be great! On Sunday, my friends will visit Madame Toussauds, but in my opinion it’s expensive, so I will visit the British Museum because it’s free and very interesting. In the afternoon we will take the train and we will return to Nottingham. Mark yourself out of 10 for how close you got to translating this accurately. 10 being the best. Just because you may not have used the exact same words does not mean it isn’t a good translation. As long as you got the same meaning across.
