Description of "Speaking Revision 3"

“Speaking Revision 3” is a structured revision resource designed to support preparation for the GCSE French Foundation Tier Speaking exam (AQA specification). It mirrors the exam format and provides scaffolded, exam-style practice across the three key components:

Task 1: Role-play – Au centre de loisirs – a contextualised task where students practise transactional language in the context of leisure centre activities, responding to unpredictable prompts and expressing personal preferences.

Task 2: Photo card – Un dîner en famille – a structured set of five questions linked to Theme 1: Identity and Culture, encouraging description of a family meal, use of different time frames, and expression of personal opinions about family traditions.

Task 3: General Conversation – Theme 2 – a conversation covering local area, environment, holidays, helping others.

Task 4: General Conversation – Theme 3 – a conversation coveringschool, subjects, uniform, daily routine, future education and jobs.

Assessment Objective Coverage:

AO1 (understanding spoken language): indirectly supported as students practise responding to spoken prompts.

AO2 (speaking in the target language): directly targeted across all tasks, focusing on communication, fluency, spontaneity.

AO3 (understanding written language): supported through comprehension of written prompts and bullet points.

Suggested Teaching Strategies:

Use in mock speaking exams to familiarise students with timing and structure.

Employ as a pair-work activity where students alternate examiner/candidate roles.

Set specific tasks as homework or independent practice, followed by peer review in class.

Incorporate model answers (from the correction sheet) for whole-class analysis, focusing on opinion phrases, tense variation, justification.

Differentiate by encouraging more confident students to extend answers with connectives, subordinate clauses, sophisticated vocabulary from the AQA specification.

This resource helps students build confidence, develop fluency, and practise exam-relevant skills aligned with the AQA GCSE French assessment criteria.

These revision resources for the AQA GCSE French oral exam were created with the assistance of OpenAI’s ChatGPT. Throughout the development process, I used AI-generated suggestions, templates, and prompts to design structured role-plays, speaking cards, and revision activities tailored to the AQA specification. I collaborated with ChatGPT to ensure clarity, consistency, and accessibility, while adapting and refining the materials to meet the needs of my students. All final content was reviewed, edited, and curated by me as the author.
