What I did well,
The reading aspects of the exam were done practically well.
Even better if,
I improve my writing and listening skills. ]]> 2018-06-13 01:17:59 UTC https://padlet.com/qgraciet1/ly41cd2ixtc8/wish/266926254 https://padlet.com/qgraciet1/ly41cd2ixtc8/wish/266926710 I did well on the reading section 2. 
Even better if I used correct accents and conjugations, and remembered more content for the writing.

What I did well...
I believe that I did well in the listening section, due to the practise exams and revising vocabulary content.

Even better if... 
I need to make sure I conjugate for feminine and masculine verbs, as well as remembering to address all the topics such as reflexives and near future in the writing section. ]]> 2018-06-13 01:25:38 UTC https://padlet.com/qgraciet1/ly41cd2ixtc8/wish/266926902 https://padlet.com/qgraciet1/ly41cd2ixtc8/wish/266926913 What I did well
Improving my writing structure and grammar, near future and passé composé. 

Even better if...
I need to remember the masculine/feminine verbs and add 'e's where necessary, not mix up the columns in the listening section]]> 2018-06-13 01:25:44 UTC https://padlet.com/qgraciet1/ly41cd2ixtc8/wish/266926913 muroit https://padlet.com/qgraciet1/ly41cd2ixtc8/wish/266927455 Considering my shaky start in year 10 french, I was surprised and happy with my performance for the exam. I'm happy with my reading and speaking score.

Generally speaking I don't think that there's anything wrong with the way French is being taught. I think that most of the problems (especially with writing and listening) come from lack of revision and practice.

I could have done even better if I concentrated more when it came to simple grammar in the writing.
I also should have practiced my listening more as I was weakest at that]]> 2018-06-13 01:31:00 UTC https://padlet.com/qgraciet1/ly41cd2ixtc8/wish/266927456 fergusonr https://padlet.com/qgraciet1/ly41cd2ixtc8/wish/266927552 What I did well...
I did best in reading and made mainly silly mistakes like not noticing certain questions or reading them incorrectly. 

Even better if... 
I studied good French grammar for speaking and writing. Would've been better if I put the things in the right order in the listening part.]]> 2018-06-13 01:31:50 UTC https://padlet.com/qgraciet1/ly41cd2ixtc8/wish/266927552 parahitiyawai https://padlet.com/qgraciet1/ly41cd2ixtc8/wish/266927574 What I did well
- Reading, as I felt confident while doing it. I also had the highest marks in this
- My specific strength was how I could identify statements through key words.

How did the Exams go
- I felt that my responses were thorough. The exams were easier than I expected, but were not "easy" as such.
- I felt that my listening and speaking could have been better. I thought that I stuttered in the speaking, and I had trouble understanding what was being said the exam.

It would be better if
- I understood the listening.
- I did well on the grammar and punctuation for my writing.]]> 2018-06-13 01:32:03 UTC https://padlet.com/qgraciet1/ly41cd2ixtc8/wish/266927574 https://padlet.com/qgraciet1/ly41cd2ixtc8/wish/267444563 Despite how stressed I was for the exam, I'm actually very happy with the score I achieved on the exam. I did a lot better than I thought I would. 

What went well :
- My ability to write a cohesive piece of writing with accuracy and a range of language devices really surprised me (this was my best mark out of all the sections)
- The reading was relatively straightforward and easy to understand, and I am happy with my mark for that section of the exam

What I need to improve on :
In the future, I should do more revision for the listening and speaking sections of the exam, as they were my 2 worst scores.
- I should revise more for listening not only by doing practice tests but by listening to French radio, television, movies, audiobooks... anything spoken in French that I can get my hands on so that I can learn how to understand spoken French better and not only improve my ability to listen to it more quickly, but identify the main problems I have with listening so that I can work on them
- For speaking, I should try and speak as much French as possible so that I can gain some sort of ability to speak in French. I should try and implement some sort of system where I write an overview of my day/week and tell it to people, aiming to use a range of language devices and making sure my pronunciation is correct. Not only will this improve my speaking ability, but it will also improve my written fluency.

Overall, I am very happy with my exam results, but I think there are a lot of ways I can improve without adding too much to my workload.]]> 2018-06-16 13:26:49 UTC https://padlet.com/qgraciet1/ly41cd2ixtc8/wish/267444563
