Bonjour! I hope you all had a good second day and survived the heat!! Thank you for a nice second day! ☺
FSF 2D - Today, students received some useful organizational tools that will be helpful throughout the semester and during our review unit. They now have a calendar, a sheet with "to remember" and "common errors" to write in as a reference tool, and a code of conduct to ensure the right that everyone has in our class to learn. We completed an activity to ensure that we are always thorough in reading instructions, and to be aware. =) They rehearsed their first speaking activity (and were given a review sheet that can amplify the detail of their conversation) and will record and send it to me tomorrow. We had an assembly during the second half.
FSF 1D (both classes) - Today, students reflected on their first day by writing to me on a sticky note a positive and a negative experience from yesterday, as well as if they looked at the blog. Then, we started our focus on being thorough when we read instructions, and on organization. Students now have a course outline, table of contents, a calendar, and a code of conduct with which we did a speaking activity; students are aware of the classroom expectations and consequences.
They know now that their first speaking activity will be on Sept 12 during our lab day. We discussed learning styles, and students completed a questionnaire about their strongest learning style. Tomorrow we reflect on our previous experiences in French.
BIG NEWS: You will have your diagnostic assessment on Friday. Your first speaking task will be spelling a name in French, reading a number aloud and answering 2 commonly asked questions during introductions.
