NEWS FROM THE FRENCH CORNER

Grade 1/2- Since the class was so excited about their Lutin (elf on the shelf), it was decided that they would do an Advent calendar while practicing their concert song. Good work everyone!

Grade 7- After an in-class challenge with definition, students continued on with a cloze activity to use the unit vocabulary and the verb 'devoir'.
Grade 8- The class was interested in participating in the vocabulary challenge. They also started mapping out ideas for the summative. Things to think about for a radio ad: find what is interesting about your film, vocabulary for a 'terrifying movie' etc.

Grade 5/6 We are continuing with the partitif and sports. Today, students explored the different expressions for their slogans. We will start the art work for the T-shirt transfers soon.

Grade 3/4 In addition to practicing the song, students brainstormed holiday vocabulary and used the words to draw their own Advent calendar.

JK/SK Today was singing for the concert and if you have a sibling in gr. 1,2,3,4, please practice with them at home. We also read a story about an evergreen who dreamed of becoming a Christmas Tree in a beautiful home.
