How to check the work
Ask the learner to show or explain one idea, then try a fresh example with suitable support. Note any prompts needed; retelling alone does not show secure understanding.

How to study with French — Module 2: Free time and hobbies
This parent guide relates the page examples with a practical study routine. The present resource is labelled French, GCSE, Year 10, Year 11, E-Learning Module. Use that setting, the learning summary and published prompts to clarify what successful work should reveal.
Prepare a focused session
Read the title and learning focus together. Ask the learner to recognise the understanding, terminology or method they may need. Scan each sample and recognise action words, amounts, signals, conditions or new terms. Agree a focused time window, reduce interruptions and collect useful equipment such as paper, pencil, ruler, coloured pens, calculator, headphones or a device. Encourage an unaided opening attempt so the response indicates sound understanding and gaps. A quiet pause often supports retrieval better than an same-session answer.
Make thinking published
Invite the learner to summarise the task in their own words. They can underline key information, separate a extended problem into smaller steps, sketch a diagram, sort support, rehearse a sentence or describe a planned method. Ask why their route fits and whether another method could work. When work stops, offer a staged hint: state again the goal, point towards a useful example, reduce the choice, then model only the next step. Return control directly afterwards. Spoken reasoning highlights mistakes and practises clear subject language.
Check accuracy and understanding
Compare the attempt with published answer guidance after honest effort. Inspect more than the final response: review the method, explanation, units, support, sequence, spelling or presentation where useful. Ask the learner to identify the opening point where their reasoning changed path. Complete corrections actively in a different colour or fresh space, followed by a brief account of the correction. For a correct answer, request reasoning and one unaided check. This distinguishes assured understanding from guessing while developing accuracy, reflection and careful working habits.
Consolidate and extend
Finish with retrieval from memory. Cover the example and ask for the core idea, process or fact again. Create one small adaptation by adjusting a value, condition, example, viewpoint or level of support while keeping the learning focus. Invite the learner to write a related question and supply checking guidance. Record one success and one clear next step, perhaps returning to terminology, repeating a calculation, adding support or developing clarity. Recheck that target again in the week because spaced review gives stronger information than same-session repetition.
The interactive player, downloadable file and complete answer material retain their existing access controls. The guide supports preparation, discussion and review.
