Dear Parents and Guardians,


We are currently working on learning the objects of the School. The students are required to learn the vocabulary words and recall the right articles that precede every word as we have masculine singular articles (un, le) and feminine singular articles (une, la). Please find the list of words for every grade:

- 2^nd Grade:  une école, un crayon, une gomme, un cahier, un livre, un bâton de colle, des crayons de couleur

- 3^rd Grade: une école, un crayon, une gomme, un cahier, un livre, un bâton de colle, des crayons de couleur, un papier

- 4^th-5^th Grade: une école, un crayon, une gomme, un cahier, un livre, un bâton de colle, des crayons de couleur, un papier, un cartable

 Greeting the visitor

Bonjour, je m’appelle……….

Bienvenue en classe de Français.  “Welcome to French class”.

Asseyez-vous s’il vous plait (Pointing to the chair and inviting the guest to sit)

Et chez vous! …. And at Home!

Even if you don’t know a word of French, you can still support your child’s learning in many ways. Have the child review their notebook daily (5-10 minutes) and repeat the words several times while you are listening. Repetitions lead to mastery and Forvo.com or google/translate are helpful with pronunciation.

Have fun with the learning and always remind your children to sit tall and straight during instruction time, participate often and do their best at all times.

Mille mercis.

It was my honor and pleasure to get to meet with some of you to discuss the children’s progress in French. As we continue on, here are the guidelines for the learning happening in class.

     Songs and Poems: We are learning

2^nd Grade: “Meunier, tu dors….”
Meunier, tu dors
Ton Moulin, ton Moulin va trop vite
Meunier, tu dors
Ton Moulin va trop fort

Ton Moulin, ton Moulin va trop vite
Ton Moulin, ton Moulin va trop fort

Meunier, tu dors
et le vent, et le vent soufflé, soufflé
Meunier, tu dors
et le vent soufflé fort

Ton Moulin, ton Moulin va trop vite
Ton Moulin, ton Moulin va trop fort
 

           3^rd Grade:  “1,2,3 Nous irons au bois”. The students will be required to connect the             vocabulary words to the right image and put the sequences of the song in the right order.

1,2,3           Nous irons au bois
4,5,6           Cueillir des cerises
7,8,9          Dans mon panier neuf
10,11,12     elles seront toutes rouges

 

4^th-5^th Grade:  “Les crayons” de Corinne Albaut as a poem. We are still working on memorizing the poem. Yes, we are going to sing it at the end. Meanwhile, the students will be required to fill in the blank and copy the right vocabulary word. Next, they are going to write the colors mentioned in the poem and use the right color appropriately.

Les crayons

Mais à quoi jouent les crayons

Pendant les récréations?

Le rouge dessine une souris

le vert un soleil  

le bleu dessine un radis

le gris une groseille

le noir qui n’a pas d’idée

fait des gros pâtés.

Voilà les jeux des crayons

Pendant les récréations.
