SUPPORT BOOK

YEAR 10 & 11

Strategies to build your vocabulary:

Between now and your exam – set yourself a weekly target of words to learn. Strategies to remember spelling include:

word association connection to the English language as there are some similarities

on the Latin based words

Hide the English Colum and try to say meaning from the French words:

o If you know the word highlight in green o If you can work it out highlight in orangeo If you don’t know the word set it as a target for the week

Challenge - The same process as above but this time: Hide the French Colum and try to say meaning from the English

words.

Keep revisiting the learnt vocabulary to secure learning – just because you have highlighted them in green does not mean that ‘it’s a done deal’. Reinforcing learning is key to success.

Important Notice:Should you lose your booklet, the replacement cost is £2.
