Main event
Differentiation
Pupils needing extra support: Can work in supported groups to ensure they have a good understanding of both the present and near future tense, identifying the addition of the infinitive in the future tense. By saying each phrase out loud will help retention and recall.
Pupils working at greater depth: Challenge them to construct sentences using both present and near future tense, using et and mais, encouraging them to present their extended sentences to practise fluency. They could also write down the rules of the near future tense using aller, and then explain the key points to a pupil who may need support.
