NEWS FROM THE FRENCH CORNER

The students are all on a roll this week, with a well established routine.

Grade 5/6 are hard at work on their presentations for Monday 15th. They are great collaborators and inquirers. Some work will sent home but mostly pictures or drawings. The final editing should be done tomorrow Friday.

Grade 3/4 were all inquiry today. Their agendas have a map of Canada, provincial flags. They are incredible observers and detected similarities and differences with the design of the flags. New words: nouveau (Nouveau Brunswick), nouvelle (Nouvelle Ecosse), neuve (Terre Neuve). Bonus words: Maritimes.

Grade 7/8 worked with vouloir, pouvoir, devoir in the affirmative and negative forms. They also re-visited the list of auxiliary verbs.

JK/SK took turns at naming the rainbow colours in French of course. They were quite keen at earning house points.

Grade 1/2 worked very hard at word recognition, passing from picture to word. A few grade 2 students advanced to the word search and are working ahead.
