Grands Anglophones

Friday November 19th was a rainy day and Parent-Teacher conferences to boot, but it did not curb the Grands Anglophones enthusiasm, yes, they are awesome!
We changed rooms and settled into our routine introducing ourselves, counting and then we corrected the exercises from the previous week. We used this lesson, and the lesson from the previous week to create little stand-up dialogues in pairs, or monologues for the independent minded. Your children are able to have a 3-line intelligent conversation in French, this is practical and satisfying.
We then did a cut & paste exercise about rooms and objects around the house, drawing from our Halloween card game vocabulary. The purpose of this exercise is acquisition of vocabulary, but also learning how to make sentences describing locations in space ("the skis are on top of the mirror").
We ended on a happy note, singing the old favorites, "Jean-Petit qui danse", "Alouette" and "Frere Jacques".
Thanks for letting me teach your children, they are a wonderful group!
