Mastering Past Narration

Form and use the passé composé with 'avoir', including common irregular past participles.

Form and use the passé composé with 'être', including past participle agreement rules.

Form and use the imparfait to describe past settings, states, and habits.

Distinguish between the passé composé and imparfait to narrate a story with foreground and background actions.

Recognize and use the plus-que-parfait for events that occurred before another past event.

Use key time markers (e.g., hier, pendant que, soudain, d'abord) to structure a past narrative.

Write a short narrative (approx. 100 words) combining passé composé, imparfait, and plus-que-parfait.
