NEWS FROM THE FRENCH CORNER

Juste deux dodos...Only 2 more sleeps until the start of a very exciting year. On Wednesday, students will start coming to the French classroom. I encourage everyone to be risk-takers and keep an open mind every time they will be entering the French Corner Room. This year, more than ever, we will make French "the primary language"in room 7. 

Having all the French material in one location will enable the students to have immediate access to all the tools they need, as well as an atmosphere promoting French immersion...at least for the daily 30 minutes. 

 As usual, please come back to this blog to see what is new and perhaps challenge your child or children in teaching you what they learned that day. Say a sentence, ask a question in French to show your own interest in their learning. In this global village we call "The World", a second language is often the element that can open doors. All international organizations require French and English as primary language. On a more local basis, the service industry requires or will give preference to a bilingual candidate. 

Personally, I can't wait to see the students on Wednesday morning and je vous souhaite une année scolaire fantastique!

À bientôt!
