le 18 octobre

Bonjour classe!

 Today, you will be discovering or reviewing the verbs VOULOIR and POUVOIR.

You will begin by watching a few videos. The boys you will watch, Peter and Jacob, make an error conjugating VOULOIR. Can you find it?
Please don't write anything yet, you will receive a note shortly.

Here is the verb VOULOIR - to want

Here is the verb POUVOIR - to be able to or to can

Here is Peter and Jacob's video

What was the mistake???

Now read through these few slides aloud with a partner. There are examples of how the verbs are used.

Notice that vouloir and pouvoir follow similar patterns. Can you identify the pattern? Hint: it involves ils and elles.

How does this generate more ideas for your project?  Maybe our friend Augusto wants to whisper sweet nothings to his future belle fille? 
Je veux chuchoter les mots doux à une belle fille. 
Let's try to use vouloir or pouvoir plus an infinitive in your work.

Now, please have one student open their elearning account to access the next task.
