French vocabulary

[Sabs44]

Hey guys,

How do you learn/improve on your French vocabulary? I'm in French SL, and I want to widen my vocabulary and understanding of the French language to get a 7

Anyone know of any websites/apps that have really helped you?

Thanks!

I use anki (http://ankisrs.net/) to make flashcards from Mastering French Vocabulary (http://www.amazon.ca/Mastering-French-Vocabulary-Thematic-Approach/dp/0764123947/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1323395213&sr=8-1). Sometimes I read articles on lemonde to see which words appear a lot and put them in anki. Qasana.com is also pretty useful, if you haven't already used it.

My teacher send me a couple of websites to practice for paper 1 & 2, two weeks before the IB exams and it worked fine. I'm also aiming for that 7

Here there are, just like my teacher told me to do them :

Faire les exercices de l'Epreuve 1:

Read books, especially ones written for younger children that will be of interest to you. Look up the words you don't know and make flashcards out of them: study these in your free time (ha. ha.)

Also, it may sound pointless but throwing in some dirty/slang words can make you want to study more. Its what I do and it helps a lot
