Welcome back!

I hope you had an enjoyable and restful break.

We continued the journey with the family Legrand and we learned about brother (s) frère - sister (s) sœur, even we were even able to recognize an only child.

Staying with the theme of the family, we are going to ask the question  “Tu habites avec qui?” The students are going to name all the family members they live with. We will return our focus on determining the masculine articles (un/le), the feminine articles (une/la) and the possessive masculine (mon), feminine (ma) and the plural (mes).

With the use of the prepositions entre (between), devant (in front of) and derrière (behind), à côté (next to) the students will be able to recognize and tell where every person is placed in the family picture. After several practices, the students will be asked to bring a family picture and take turn introducing their families to the class. The pets that live with us are not yet included: it will be our next lesson.

The vocabulary words are:

- un père/le père/ papa……………………………….    Mon père

-une mère/la mère/ maman ……………………….    Ma mère

- les parents/des parents ……………………………     Mes parents

- un frère/le frère  ………………………………………     Mon frère

- une sœur/la sœur  ………………………………….      Ma sœur

- un grand-père/le grand-père …………………..       Mon grand-père

- une grand-mère/ la grand-mère ……………….      Ma grand-mère

Une Soirée de Beauté


You are invited to enjoy a special evening showcasing the artwork and French performances of your children on Fiday, April 22nd.  There will be artwork displayed throughout the hallways, a French class video in the MPR, along with a live performance by the French Club. You may also enjoy photo opportunities with figures from art masterpieces, refreshments, and an optional art workshop- seating is limited and is on a first-come, first-served basis.

The evening will be divided into two sessions. Please view the schedule below and arrive only during the session assigned to your last name. This will help ensure sufficient parking and allow you to enjoy the evening freely and comfortably. Please look at the schedule carefully to decide which presentations you would like to attend. The evening is rather informal, but please make sure you allow for time to view the artwork and see the French Class video (shown twice during each session).
