SPIRIT WEEK - Tomorrow is Jersey Day!

French 9A

The students got to express their artistic talents as they placed a narwhal in various places relative to a box.  They also wrote down the vocabulary for positions:

in front of - devant
behind - derrière
under - sous
on - sur
in - dans
above - au dessus de
between - entre _________ et _________
at the corner of - au coin de
to the left of - à gauche de
to the right of - à droite de
next to - à côté de


Il est dans la boîte.  He is in the box.

de la = de la
de le = du
de les = des

ELA 9A

The students wrote their exam on Romeo and Juliet.  We also did a quick review of paragraph structure and they wrote a paragraph on an ELA goal they have for the rest of this year.  Goals may be concerning writing, reading, listening, viewing, representing, and/or speaking.

French 8A

Students  practiced using "re" verbs in past tense.  We also discussed the things they had done on their break in French.

French 8B

Students went over their pop quiz on AVOIR / ÊTRE.  Many students need to memorize these verbs to make using past tense easier.  We then worked with some Dr. & Mrs. Vandertramp verbs using ÊTRE  to put them in their past tense form.  This is also the form that must have agreement with the pronoun so some have e and s added to the endings.

French 10/20/30

Our theme of food continued with a discussion of what everyone planned to eat for dinner.  No one is having dessert.  :(
We then added some vocabulary terms to our food knowledge.
