We looked at the French education system, specifically the elementary levels and what they are called in France. Then we added a question and answer to our vocab 2a notes about what you need for a certain class. Then students practiced asking their table group what they need for certain classes. Then they filled in their school schedule on page 12 part 5 in their chapter 2 packet. We used those schedules to ask at what time they have a class and who their teacher is for that class. Then they completed the English side of a question table they have titled "Grammaire: Les cours et les profs". These 10 questions will be our focus for this unit and these will be the questions they ask and answer for their speaking assessment next week.
