Notes for teachers
Parts 1 and 2 focus on form, and Parts 3 and 4 move on to use in negatives, questions and a connected text. The test targets typical A2 errors. These include using avoir with movement verbs, invented participles such as "prendu" or "pleuvu", and missing agreement with être. It also covers wrong placement of ne…pas and jamais. As a follow-up, ask students to write their own weekend email in the passé composé and underline every participle that agrees with the subject.
