Guided writing: Talking about friends and family (Foundation)

In this lesson, we will explore a foundation style GCSE writing question focusing on tense formation before co-constructing a written answer. This is an opportunity to practise some independent writing at the end of this lesson. The writing task is: 'Your French friend has asked you about your friends and family. Write a reply'.
