We worked with our vocab 1c today. I explained some of the details about the vocab since students simply copied it down yesterday. Then we practiced with our articles by completing the 1/2 sheet in their worksheets with un/une or le/la/l'. Then we did a listening practiced that models this part of their assessment next week. Then they completed page 3 (all of it) in their chapter 1 packet. This is homework if they didn't finish it.

We worked with our adjectives and describing a famous person today. This is what they will have to do for their assessment tomorrow (speaking assessment). Students used their famous person sheet from Friday to practice with a partner. Then I had more pictures of other famous people and they practiced with those.

Assessment tomorrow - interpersonal speaking describing a famous person

Friday, October 15, 2019

We added 4 sentences to our notes so that we can make sentences negative.
I am not...Je ne suis pas...
You are not... Tu n'es pas...
He/She is not... Il/Elle n'est pas...

Students then completed page 1 of their chapter 1 packet describing each person with at least 4 sentences or more if they could. Then they complete the Des Celebres worksheet where they had to choose 4 famous people, say who they were, what nationality they were and say two adjectives they were and 2 adjectives they were not. This models the speaking assessment they will have next week.

We watched the intro video that goes with the textbook. Then students completed some questions based on some pictures I displayed from the textbook. They were describing the people in the pictures using their new adjectives.
