NEWS FROM THE FRENCH CORNER

C'est bientôt la Fête des mères!

J & K students teamed up to identified a table setting items. After a lively game of 'round the world', most of the children could name: assiettes (grandes ou petites), le bol, la tasse et la soucoupe, la fourchette, le couteau et la cuillère et la serviette de table.

Grade 1 are very active and will identify actions for specific animals. We also had an animated game of prepositions: sur, sous, devant, derrière, à côté de, dans.

Grade 2 are also working and using these prepositions. They were also interested in setting the table...so they did! Each demonstrated how to display the dishes. They all had the basics down path and we made (and discussed) a few alternatives.

Grade 3 & 4 are nearly ready for an audience! Next week, our challenge is to present our play a few St Jude's visiting teachers.

Grade 5 worked independently then shared their answers for Chapter 9.

Grade 6 were finishing their power point presentation for Monday. Bravo, Landen for managing your time wisely.

Grade 7 & 8 played a game of hangman using the new vocabulary from the unit 'Sous-Terrain'. Amazing! They already know so much!  DO YOU KNOW WHAT 'Spéléologie' is?  Ask them!!!
