FSF 1P - Ce matin nous avons crée un petit sondage. We created and executed a small survey about our preferred buildings. We are starting to compare buildings now. Students can identify places on a map with descriptions of its physical place, they can ask a preference about a place! We started to watch an episode of Tintin and will have an activity about Tintin later this week. 

FSF 1D - We had a scavenger hunt where students read clues en français and had to find which building it was describing, write it in French and then write the letter they found on the image found in the caf. Students also read aloud and were provided with oral and written feedback. There will be a speaking task on Thursday this week!! Students had an exercise to complete on Y (double sided) and we had a card game where students listened to clues (like those heard in class) provided by other players, guessed the place they were referring to, and took the card if they were correct. We are trying to speak as much French as possible! 


FEF 1D - OVERDUE WORK NOTICE - be sure to hand it in!!!!!  Goscinny et Sempé - la lecture
Nous avons lu en haute voix chapitre 2, nous avons faits des questions de comprehension oralement (en levant les mains, vrai ou faux), nous avons découvert le mot DONT et comment ça fonctionne dans une phrase, et nous avons lu chapitre trois du roman. Pour se préparer pour demain, voici des vidéos que vous aimeriez, je pense. Si j'étais toi, je l'aimerais.    =) 

 Regardez ce vidéo de musique de Natasha St. Pier et Pascal Obispo! Que ferais-tu si tu devais mourir demain?

Que ferais-tu si tu étais président (et dans nos cases, le premier ministre)?

Voici ce que ces enfants feront... devineriez-vous leurs rêves?

Voici la vraie chanson =)

le 8 avril

FSF 1P  - Great day! We created a belle ville in our class and we could describe where we were (if we were buildings) in the city in conjuction with other buildings without written prompts! Students are building confidence and stronger sentence structure each day. We also learned how to say please in other languages today. Students read prompts to identify which buildings they were in our activity and next week, you will compare places!


FSF 1D - We had a lab day and a quick 'unpopped' quiz that students knew about at the end of class. We listened and watched some videos of people going places and getting directions and all of our details are on elearning.  Be prepared for lots of speaking next week!

FEF 1D - Nous avons révisé le Petit Nicolas et nous avons prédit ce qui se passera aux personnages qu'on connait à ce point. Vous avez les devoirs; la photo, le noms des dessins au verso, et la lecture de Goscinny et Sempé (sur elearning si vous les voulez). Beaucoup de discussions, la semaine prochaine. Soyez prêts!!!  

☺    Bon weekend à tous et à toutes!!!   ☺

FSF 1P -  Today we had a lab day! We completed a listening activity for marks, we listened to dialogues of people speaking and we learned some new direction words. Good work, everyone!


FSF 1D -   We worked in the caferteria today where we learned and applied our knowledge of ALLER, the preposition A and its other forms, and a new one letter word : Y. Students completed a worksheet to practice ALLER and read through a dialogue about a potential rendez-vous with friends. There will be a 'pop' quiz tomorrow (coup d'oeil, coup d'oeil).


FEF 1D - Pour demain tu apporteras ;   a)  3 prédictions au futur simple (irregulier) à propos du livre Petit Nicolas (parce que nous avons bien practiqué le futur simple aujourd'hui). 
  b) tes crayons pour completer ta photo de la classe, et une bonne connaissance du livre. 
Demain, nous continuerons le prochain chapitre. 
LUNDI, vous apporterez vos réponses de Goscinny et Sempé. Vous verrez l'exercice (la lecture) sur elearning. 

le 6 avril

FSF 1P - Today, we explored Paris and Montreal by looking at maps, and we learned prepositions to use that we can now listen to and find out where we are, or what building we are at.   We had a fun time !!!

FSF 1D - We corrected some work today on ALLER, and completed a word bank for buildings. We also thought critically about the French language to know why there are different forms of TO THE. We listened to a paragraph and did a quick listening comprehension activity as well. 

Can you choose the correct form of A? Try these 5 questions!

Try this Battleship game to practice ALLER

Please take a look at previous posts for further reinforcement if you feel it is necessary. 

FEF 1D -  Nous avons discuté les rêves des autres personnages du film Les Choristes pour une note orale. Nous avons fait des prédictions du livre Le Petit Nicolas, nous avons lu Souris, Veux-tu un biscuit et on a trouvé tous les verbes au futur simple et nous avons écouté et identifié
Je t'aimerai toujours
Le jour et la nuit
En tant que je vivrai 
Tu seras mon bébé

En plus, nous avons commencé à lire (Mme a lu en haut voix) La photo de la classe. 

Voici des liens pour practiqué le futur simple et n'oubliez pas que vous avez une compréhension de lecture à completer pour LUNDI!!!

FEF 1D - Today we completed a listening activity in preparation for our next speaking task. Students wrote scripts today and will execute a dialogue to describe where they are going in their city and why. Excellent listening comprehension today!

FSF 1D - Students started their new unit on the city. Most of us can listen to actions and identify buildings in which those activities happen well already. We are developing a word bank, and applying what we already know how to do in order to describe one building we are creating for an activity later this week. Students should know the verb aller (review from last post is below with games to play) and we will be practicing the present tense. 

Does this look familiar!?

JOYEUX JOUR DU POISSON D'AVRIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

EVERYONE HAS A TEST FIRST THING MONDAY.... April fools!    =)

FSF 1P - Today we combined everything we have been practicing this week to talk about why we go to the places we go. Students can identify buildings based on clues they have heard, they can explain why they go to those buildings and they can talk about why other people go to those places. Their pronunciation and sentence building is awesome!!!  Please be sure to do Ex. 2 and 3 if you're up for the challenge on your ALLER sheet, and be ready to film yourselves speaking with your maps on Monday!!! 

FSF 1D - We started our new unit today. Students imagined what refugees would have to experience, know, understand, do and learn about when arriving in Canada. We will continue talking about our town, it's conveniences (and inconveniences) and much more in the weeks to follow. 
Students will be required to visit this site for reinforcement activities. 

Here are some to practice 
au présent
je vais - I go / I am going
tu vas - you go / you are going
il va - he goes / he is going
elle va - she goes / she is going
on va - we go / we are going (informal)
nous allons - we go / we are going
vous allez - you go / you are going
ils vont - they go / they are going (masculin)
