A Knowledge organiser that captures the essential knowledge and skills learnt throughout the unit French, Year 5/6 (A), Portraits – describing in French.

This resource is designed to support pupils in describing physical features and personality traits in French. It highlights key vocabulary such as les yeux (eyes), les cheveux châtains (brown hair), and adjectives like fort(e) (strong), sportif/sportive (sporty), heureux/heureuse (happy), and sérieux/sérieuse (serious). Pupils also learn sentence structures including il/elle a… (he/she has…) and il/elle est… (he/she is…), and explore how adjectives agree with gender. The unit includes cultural references, such as the Louvre Museum, and supports sentence-building and spoken fluency through scaffolded phrases and visual prompts.
