Francais au Canada et au monde!

Mme.McConville and her students are enjoying the "French room". Students have been learning about French communities in Ontario, Quebec and around the world! Some students have trips planned to visit these communities or have visited them already - quel aventure! I have been to many of these places and look forward to continuing my travels around the world. It is fun to visit places you have read about or read about places you have been! The Grade 4 students have written pen pal letters to friends in Winnipeg!
Students in Grades 4-6 are reading French books at home for "Ma Lecture". Aimee has read 50 books already! These students have read 20 or more books at home this year:  Aaron, Matthew, Akash, Lauren, Brooklyn, Alexsa and Arielle. Felicitations!

Bonne ete!
I hope you shared your French albums at home in June. Besides showing some of your best work, they are also a great review for you to look at. I have added some new websites for you to try here. Be sure to turn the sound on!
