1. Objective

By the end, you will manipulate forms related to “Qui or que?” without copying the model.

2. Discover

Take two “Qui or que?” examples and change one element at a time.

3. Understand

To understand “Qui or que?”, start from the examples rather than an abstract definition. Notice how the groups connect. Meaning comes from their relationship, not only from isolated words.

La femme qui parle…Le livre que je lis…Le bus qui arrive…La personne que j’attends…Le collègue qui m’aide…Le film que nous avons vu…
Watch out

First identify the relation between the ideas: cause, consequence, contrast, condition, time… Choose the connector from the meaning, not the other way around.

4. Guided practice
