  • 1Recall vocabulary for fruits, animals, and colours in French and identify personal preferences
  • 2Display five coloured pictures of fruits (mangue, banane, orange, papaye, ananas) on the board. Ask learners: Qu'est-ce que c'est? Learners shout out the French names chorally or whisper to their partner
  • LISTENING COMPREHENSION: IDENTIFYING PREFERENCES IN CONTEXT
  • 1Play the audio recording from the textbook showing Kofi talking about his favourite fruit and an animal he dislikes. Learners listen once without stopping and note in their exercise books whether Kofi likes or dislikes each item mentioned using tick and cross symbols
  • 2Play the audio a second time. Pause after each preference statement and ask learners to repeat the phrase chorally (e.g. J'aime la mangue, Je n'aime pas les serpents). Write key phrases on the board and underline the negation structure ne.pas
  • 3Struggling learners work with the French dictionary to label three pictures of fruits before listening; they focus only on identifying likes versus dislikes using simple symbols.
  • 1Textbook
  • 2Audio recordings
  • 3French dictionary
  • 4Exercise book
  • 1Ask a volunteer to come to the board and draw one fruit and one animal. The class votes using thumbs to decide if that learner likes or dislikes each item, then the learner confirms aloud in French
  • 2Learners whisper their own preference for a fruit and an animal to their partner using j'aime or je n'aime pas; pairs swap roles and repeat
Exercise
  • 1Show Ama a picture of a mango and a picture of a snake. Write on the board: Ama aime ___ et Ama n'aime pas ___. Learners write or say the two sentences correctly in their exercise books

  • 1Recall the negative expression Je n'aime pas and identify foods Kofi and Ama dislike from Day 1
  • 2Write on the board: Je n'aime pas le kenkey. Je n'aime pas les œufs. Ask learners to identify the pattern and say the structure aloud three times chorally
  • ASKING AND ANSWERING QUESTIONS ABOUT DISLIKES
  • 1Model the question-answer pattern: Teacher asks Qu'est-ce que tu n'aimes pas? A learner responds Je n'aime pas le riz. Repeat with three different learners, using the textbook food vocabulary list. Write both sentences on the board as learners repeat
  • 2Distribute the French dictionary to pairs and ask them to find three foods they have learned. Each pair formulates one question Qu'est-ce que tu n'aimes pas? and writes a response Je n'aime pas. in their exercise books. Select one representative from each group to read their question-answer pair aloud while others listen and verify the structure
  • 3Struggling learners: work with teacher-provided sentence frames (Qu'est-ce que... / Je n'aime pas le/la...) and select from only five given foods.
  • 1Textbook
  • 2French dictionary
  • 3Exercise book
  • 4Pictures of Ghanaian foods (banku, jollof rice, groundnut soup, fufu, waakye)
  • 1Learners stand in pairs facing each other. One asks Qu'est-ce que tu n'aimes pas? The other responds Je n'aime pas. They swap roles. Repeat twice with new partner
  • 2Ask: Why is it important to say what we don't like when speaking French? Learners discuss in pairs for 30 seconds, then one pair shares their reason with the class
Exercise
  • 1Teacher says a food name in French (e.g., waakye). Learner responds with a complete sentence: Je n'aime pas le waakye. Score: full sentence with correct negative structure and food vocabulary = 2 points. Repeat with three different foods in their exercise books.

  • 1Identify and recall negative preference expressions in French from prior learning
  • 2Display three food images on the board: banku, jollof rice, and fried yam. Ask learners to whisper to a partner one food they like and one they dislike, using any language. Invite three learners to share their spoken response aloud
  • 1NEGATIVE PREFERENCE STRUCTURES: JE N'AIME PAS, JE DéTESTE
  • 2Play the audio recording from the Textbook showing Kwame saying 'Je n'aime pas les légumes, je déteste le koki.' Learners listen and repeat each sentence three times chorally, then in pairs. Write both sentences on the board and underline 'n'aime pas' and 'déteste' to show they both express dislike
  • 3Give each learner an exercise book. Call out five Ghanaian foods (yam, kontomire, waakye, plantain, groundnut soup) one at a time. Learners write 'Je n'aime pas.' or 'Je déteste.' for three foods they genuinely dislike, using the French dictionary to check spelling. Pairs check each other's written work by reading aloud and confirming the negative structure is correct
  • 4Weaker learners: provide a sentence frame card showing 'Je n'aime pas _____' and 'Je déteste _____' to copy and complete with pre-written food words.
  • 1Textbook
  • 2Audio recordings
  • 3French dictionary
  • 4Exercise book
  • 1Ask a learner who is confident to stand and say one thing they dislike using the correct negative structure. Three other learners repeat the sentence chorally to reinforce the expression
  • 2Learners show thumbs up if they heard the negative structure used correctly, or thumbs down if they did not. Repeat with a second learner's sentence to consolidate listening and recognition
Exercise
  • 1Ask each learner to say or write one complete sentence expressing what they dislike using either 'Je n'aime pas.' or 'Je déteste.' with a real Ghanaian food or drink. Confirm they use the correct negative structure in their exercise books.

  • 1Recall vocabulary for likes and dislikes and apply it to identify preferences in a short text
  • 2Display the sentence "Ama aime les bananes mais elle n'aime pas les légumes" on the board. Ask learners to point to the words that mean 'likes' and 'does not like' and call on three learners to state them aloud
  • READING COMPREHENSION OF A SIMPLE PREFERENCE TEXT
  • 1Display the short text on the board: "Kofi aime le football et les mathématiques. Il n'aime pas les devoirs. Akua aime danser et chanter. Elle n'aime pas rester à la maison." Read aloud while learners follow in their exercise books. Ask: "Qui aime le football?" and "Qu'est-ce que Akua n'aime pas?" Learners write the answers in their exercise books, then a volunteer reads one answer aloud
  • 2Distribute the textbook open to a passage about children's preferences. Working in pairs, learners identify one thing each character likes and one thing they dislike, underlining the words "aime" and "n'aime pas" with different colours. One pair from each ability group shares their findings with the class using the sentence frame provided on the board
  • 3Struggling learners: work with the first paragraph only and use the word list provided in the French dictionary to identify key words. Fast finishers: write two additional sentences about what Kofi and Akua like or dislike based on the text.
  • 1Textbook
  • 2Audio recordings
  • 3French dictionary
  • 4Exercise book
  • 1Learners stand in a circle. Call out a preference statement in French (e.g. "Je n'aime pas les mathématiques"). Learners who agree raise their right hand; those who disagree raise their left. Ask three learners to justify their response using "J'aime" or "Je n'aime pas."
  • 2Pairs exchange their written answers from Phase 2 and check each other's work using the textbook passage, marking correct identifications with a tick. Learners show the checked work to the teacher
Exercise
  • 1Provide a new short text about a student named Yakubu: "Yakubu aime les jeux vidéo et la lecture. Il n'aime pas le nettoyage." Learners answer in their exercise books: (1) Qu'est-ce que Yakubu aime? (2) Qu'est-ce qu'il n'aime pas? Answers must use complete sentences beginning with "Yakubu aime" or "Yakubu n'aime pas."
