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.

Bonjour tout le monde!
Hope you all are doing well. Here is an example of work to see what is expected for the first project.
With a partner, read through the example, and answer the following questions.
1. What do the colours represent? (vert, violet, jaune, rouge)
2. Does this meet all written requirements listed in the assignment?
3. How does this person challenge themselves by taking their project to the next level (what additional work to they add?)
Academics, tomorrow you will learn vouloir (to want) and pouvoir (to be able to). Attempt to use them if you feel comfortable. They are in the example.
Applieds, you can use this example as a template. Fill in the underlined work with your own ideas.
Salut les filles! Enchantez! Je m'appelle Augusto, et je suis un grand garçon romantique. J'aime écouter de la musique jazz et mes amis et moi aimons écrire de la poésie (poetry). Nous sommes créatifs. J'ai des cheveux bruns et des beaux yeux bruns. Ma famille et moi avons un chien. Il s'appelle Rico Suave. J'aime marcher avec Rico. Je veux rencontrer une bonne fille intéressante et gentille. Je cherche une fille qui a une belle sourire, et qui est blonde. Elle peut jouer au baseball et elle peut regarder les matchs d'hockey. J'aime lire la poésie romantique. Je veux une fille qui veut lire la poésie aussi (also). Je cherche un rapport (relationship) honnête et amusant. Je n'aime pas les filles méchantes. Je ne veux pas avoir une fille qui n'est pas contente. Aimes-tu les chiens et la poésie? Si oui, et si je t'interesse, appelle-moi! Je t'attends!
I hope this helps!

Bonjour classes!
Please go to the links from yesterday if you want more practice on BAGS adjectives.
Here is one game to play for sure
Adjective brain scramble - click here!
Below you will see two photos. Choose one photo. Can you introduce at least five people and describe them using BAGS adjectives. You could also just write about one or two characters, and be sure that you use 5 adjectives.
Write your 5 sentences on a sheet of paper and hand it in to Mme Bell before you leave class. Be sure your adjectives go before the noun it describes, and be sure it agrees (m/f, s/pl).Take it up a notch - we know it's easy to say Il est beau (he is beautiful). I'm looking for a longer sentence. It takes a longer sentence to use BAGS. Use BAGS sentences so that they come BEFORE THE NOUN IT DESCRIBES.
Mon mari est un beau homme (my husband is a beautiful man).
Tu es une belle fille. Nous sommes des bons étudiants.
Here are some other examples
Voici des beaux garçons intéilligents.
Voici un bon garçon mystérieux.
