What name do you think he will adopt?

Erreurs Fréquentes en Français

Today we went over some common errors we make as FSL learners. Our goal today, was to go over our Me Voici texts and see if we could correct some of those mistakes.

Comment if you can retell some of the corrections!

Mes Besoins pour Apprendre le Français!

Our class discussed our 'needs' in our classroom to make for a successful year in French. In large groups, we labelled all the important things we use that will make us successful French learners.

In the end, we discovered important strategies, like communication and peer collaboration, that will help us achieve our French goals. Great team work grade 6!
