jeudi le 8 septembre

FSF 2D  - Today, students completed their first speaking task that will be measured and compared to what they are able to do at the end of the semester. Our mot de la journée was TOMBER !! Facile!! 
Students remembered that word, which is a great sign. Individually, students were asked to write their first journal entry; how can you enrich your life with some French on a daily basis, and identify 3 goals for this class. Exam audit took place after. 
Tomorrow, we begin our reviews. There will be a quiz in your near future!!

FSF 1D - Today we discussed the course outline. Students are becoming more and more familiar of the processes and how we will have fun and learn in this class. We used manipulatives (die, letter cut outs) to become familiar with speaking out loud with classmates, practicing the names of the letters in French, and numbers. We begin with baby steps to establish a comfort level from day one. As an activity to better know students' experiences with French, we completed an activity called the Foolscap Scrap, where students wrote about previous poor experiences in the class, and crumpled them up and left them behind. =) New school, new classe de français, new teacher!!!  Thanks for sharing today.  Diagnostic assessment takes place tomorrow in class. 

Here are some questions I will see if you know tomorrow. They will be on your speaking task Monday.

1. Comment t'appelles-tu?
2. Quel âge as-tu?
3. Où est-ce que tu habites? 

Hope to see you tonight! ☺
