What you can and can't do: 'pouvoir' and 'savoir' singular persons

French

In this unit, pupils extend their knowledge of two-verb structures as modal verbs with dependent infinitives are introduced.  'Devoir' 'vouloir' and 'pouvoir' in singular persons are taught so pupils can express what they want to, have to and can do on holidays. SSCs -ien and -tion are revisited.
