Discover how learning French can be fun and rewarding with Mission: français Pupil Book 1. This book provides clear differentiation for all students from one book per year, with more difficult tasks marked with a star. It brings contexts to life with video openers for each module, which include French-speaking worldwide contexts. For those who find the activities easy or are doing a 2-year course, there is a faster route via the Voie Express feature box. Each topic starts with grammar to give all students the building blocks to express themselves and progress. The clear labelling and layout of the pages make it easy to navigate through the four skills: speaking, listening, writing, and reading. Abundant extension materials for all abilities are provided, including extended reading texts based on authentic material. Pupils gain an understanding of the mechanics of language through the 'How Language Works' pages. An ongoing comic book story motivates students to progress and links modules together. The book also prepares students for the revised French GCSE with a focus on grammar and translation to and from French.
