Le Grand voyage! - Le Canada

Today we started our new unit: Le Grand voyage! We started in Canada, and will be travelling our way through the USA, Europe, and then countries of Africa!

We did a Kahoot to start- we reviewed the provinces and territories of Canada!

You watched this video and highlighted on a map the province or territory you would most like to visit based on the content of the video. You then did some matching of screenshots of the video to sentences describing the activity shown. We went over the answers together.

e.g. à + le = au, à + la = à la...

Step 2: Find activity in French (is it le/la/les?)

Step 3: Add them together and write the sentence.  

e.g. 

Tu peux _______?

(Can you play soccer?)

Step 1: Jouer à (it's a sport!)

Step 2: le soccer

Step 3: Jouer à+le soccer = Jouer au soccer 

Réponse: Tu peux jouer au soccer?

de+le = du

de+la = de la

de+l’ = de l’ (vowel)

de+les = des

à+le = au

à+la = à la

à+les = aux

ATTN : DAY1

DAY1- We have been practicing Jouer à/de, Faire de. I did tell you I am going to quiz you on it, but that quiz will not be tomorrow, Nov 30th. We need to do more practice. I have had a few students ask me about it today. Please tell your friends to check the website.

Tomorrow we will be practicing how to order crêpes if you happen to stop by the crêpe stand at lunch or between classes (a French food truck will be set up by the gym Thursday Dec 1st.) This is also useful knowledge in general! Knowing how to order something in French!

We will then review Jouer à/de, Faire de.

À demain,
