There’s no English word for « la rentrée », so for this week’s joker – create one!
Also remember that you have a vocabulary test on lists 1 to 10 this week so get revising!
For another free joker – the « trim » are coming – describe what you do when you revise, where do you sit? How long to you work before taking a break? Do you read?underline?highlight?take notes? test yourself?
Have a good week and don’t forget the alarm clock for Monday morning!
Hello, Mrs Harris! For the non-existent word « La réntrée » in English, I created my own one: « The comeback »!
Also, I would like to explain how I revise for trims. The revisions start for me 2 days before the exams. I just reread the theory during the etudes and before I go to bed. Sometimes I go outside, I prefer sitting outdoors than indoors. I don’t listen to music while working: it distracts me! I take notes for some dates, facts and difficult information to memorise… In addition, I take 5-10 minutes break before revising next subject or voc. During that break, I play video games on my phone or eat. I let my brain relax. At the end, I often test my self with Quizlet or Françaifacile.com, it helps me to stay self-confident. During the etude before an exam, I ask questions or just relax because I would learn everything the day before!
P.S: Little advice. Don’t hope that you will be able to revise everything during the heure de revision, it’s impossible for the brain to memorise it all.
Thank you Jean, that’s great advise. I often learn best outside too!
hello, Mrs Harris I created a word tO say la rentrée – schoolstart.
