Bonjour -
Be sure to check out the post below regarding the Foreign Language Trip to Quebec!

Seventh Grade scholars are working on our FOOD unit, just in time to dazzle you at Thanksgiving with their new vocabulary. They are creating a mini-poster showing and labelling 10 items (plate, cups, napkin, silverware, food...). Some of the food vocabulary includes:
le poisson (fish)
le poulet (chicken)
le lait (milk)
un oeuf (an egg)
un crepe (flat pancake)
le fromage (cheese)
la pomme (apple)
la pomme de terre (potato.."apple of the earth")
la glace (ice cream)
le bonbon (candy)

**Also, we are coming to the end of the marking period (Dec 5th) and we will be having another notebook check. Be sure you are ready!

Eighth and Ninth Grade scholars are working on the unit "Ma Chambre" talking about items in the bedroom. We will be having our quiz this week on Thursday covering our new vocabulary, plus prepositions. They have a graphic organizer to help focus their efforts. Vocabulary includes:
une chambre (a bedroom)
une porte (door)
une fenetre (window)
un lit (a bed)
une chaise (chair)
plus possessions in their room such as:
un ordinateur (computer)
un baladeur (CD player)
un portable (cell phone)
un appareil-photo (camera)
un velo (bike)
un cahier (notebook)
une montre (watch)
