Personal revisions - Remediation - Term S

Click here to access your remediation priorities.


In autonomy => use the websites on the "GAMES" & "HELP" pages here, use the search bars in each website to select the appropriate exercises to help you revise.

When you have finished 1 exercise, copy the link and add it to the recap paper (page 2 - Exercises in autonomy). To make sure you master one notion, don't hesitate to do many exercises and mention them.

Again, you must work in autonomy. The more exercises you do, the better your English will become.

I will check your progression every week. At the end of the term, I will give a mark to this work in autonomy (it can encourage you to work regularly :))

Work well!
