NEWS FROM THE FRENCH CORNER

Enfin, c'est le mois de mai!

This morning, we had our monthly assembly and house games and therefore the grades 5/6, 3/4 did not have French. But, we will make it up next week.

Grade 7/8 used all their knowledge to de-code the following pronouns: on, en, y. THEY WERE SUCCESSFUL! They were able to reduce sentences to their bare bones, structureally speaking, then, put all the elements back in place. They found the exercise quite challenging.

Grade 1/2 took a team challenge and acted out several actions. There was quite a bit of animation in the class and everyone participated.
A BIG THANK YOU TO THE STUDENTS WHO DONATED PENCILS TO THE CLASS BASKETS.  AN EVEN BIGGER THANK YOU TO THE PARENTS WHO SENT WHOLE PACKAGES OF PENCILS.

PK/JK/SK were treated to Fablanimo. This is a song/story CD about animals learning to  get along on the farm. The students are also learning to name the animals in French when they hear the sound they make.
