Weekend French writing challenges for Friday 15th of June 2018 - Shopping

This week's theme is Shopping - here are the writing challenges:

Level A1: Exchanging a scarf at the shop

Level A2: Taking Grandma phone shopping

Level B1: Interview with a jewellery creator

Level B2: High cost of cigarette packaging change

Level C1: Review of the iPhone 8 Plus

These tests are self-scoring, so after you translate each phrase in turn, you'll be shown the correct French to compare to yours so that you can give yourself a score.

After each question, you'll find links to lessons on the grammar covered so you can easily add tricky ones to your own Notebook.

This is the fourth set of challenges in the new format which offers corrections for each phrase, to help you pinpoint your mistakes as you self-score.
