the verb “être.”
A Faire: pg 49 #8 (prepare answers only in writing, do
orally in partners). *Make sure your
adjectives agree with “personnes” which is feminine and plural!!
Devoirs: Practice être—quiz FRI, pg 49 #4 (read
description, write a sentence using adjective to describe the person—make sure
the adjective agrees!)
Mercredi 18/12: Today we continued our practice of adjectives and the verb “être.”
A Faire: adjective/name acrostic. On a piece of plain white paper, write name

*use at least 10 adjectives to describe yourself
*Make adjective agreements when
necessary!!
*Must color
*Must write legibly/be able to clearly
read name/adjectives
*Can decorate
*Can use first/middle/last names

Vendredi 20/12: Today we finished the film “Les Choristes” while I conducted oral interviews and learned some about how Christmas is celebrated in France.
TEC (Travail en Classe):
1)Finish movie handout (Les Choristes
activity). On the movie handout… Record
at least 20 different words/phrases that you understand from the film. For the questions, circle the French word
that best fits the meaning/plot of the movie and translate the word into the
English translation below. At the end of
the film, you will do some reflecting.
2)Noël en France: read the handout, write a paragraph
describing similarities/differences between your holiday traditions and those
celebrated in France, define the 11 vocab words on bottom of page, and do “c’est
Rodolphe!”
Handouts: Noël en France
Devoirs: Watch a French movie (not
an American movie dubbed in French !). It must be in French and you may of course use
English subtitles. Write a summary of
the film (at least 1 large paragraph) and another paragraph as a review of the
film (was it good/bad/interesting/etc? why?
Did you like it? Why? Would you recommend it? Why/for whom?).
