Salut! On Monday & Tuesday this week, Y2-3 and Y4-6 went on trips to enjoy French language and culture at the Alliance Francaise (AF) on Wireless Road. It was the first time for most of the children to put their French listening and speaking skills to practice in a real life context with native […]
Salut! During weeks 2 & 3 of Term 3, we incorporated the theme of Art Week into our classes. All the children learned about Claude Monet, Master of the Impressionists. Y2 & Y3 listened to a story called ‘Where’s The Frog’ inspired by Monet’s masterpieces and for their ‘At Home’ topic, they created rooms of […]
Bravo les enfants! Well done children! Je suis très fière de vous tous! I am very proud of you all! You put on a really fantastic show for St. Andrew’s Dusit’s first ever French Assembly. Everyone from Y2-Y6 gave it their best effort, I was so impressed that you all remembered your lines, actions, songs, […]
Salut, ça va? By now, everyone learning French should know how to answer this simple question as we ask it at the start of every lesson. In fact, it’s become rather boring, ‘ennuyeux’, so Mme. Mel has decided to teach us more ways to ask how someone feels, such as ‘comment tu te sens?’ and to ask others to […]
Cette semaine, c’est Book Week! Et oui, this week it is indeed Book Week. In French, the children chose to listen to/watch famous French stories including ‘Le Petit Prince’ and ‘Madeline’. We linked our learning to the current topic of ‘FEELINGS’ by stopping to ask how each character/the narrator was feeling during the story-telling. Y2 Loved watching […]
Ça va? All of you can answer this question easily, because we ask it at the beginning of every French class, it means ‘How are you?’. Usually you will say ‘ça va bien/très bien/mal/comme-çi comme-ça’ (I’m fine/really good/bad/so-so). Over the next couple of weeks, we are learning new vocabulary for a wider variety of feelings and to describe our character. […]
Coucou! (Hiya!) Finally, Mr. Alistair has kindly helped me fix the problem with logging into Muzzy & Linguascope. If you’d like to practice your French anytime outside of school or even during your class golden time, here are the proper log-in and passwords you need to use – et OUI, they do work now, I […]
Salut! Aujourd’hui c’est vendredi le douze février et demain, c’est les vacances! It’s been a busy first half of Term 2. In weeks 4 & 5, we’ve had lots of fun in French exploring the i-pad apps called Chatterpix and Faces I Make Enjoy the class updates, photos and videos below. Y2 The children worked very well in […]
Salut! Today I’d like to share with you some information about the talented French singer/songwriter, Alain Le Lait. We learn French so much quicker thanks to him. Building our vocabulary and remembering it is far easier when you can remember a tune in your head like days of the week ‘lundi, mardi, mercredi…’ (I bet you’re singing […]
A belated Bonne Année to you all! (Happy New Year) During the first 2 weeks of term, I was impressed with how much the children could still remember after their Christmas holiday. During Week 1 we played lots of revision games using Talking Dice that we made in Term 1, tossing them to one another […]
