Download ----> DUO LINGO

Attention grades 7, 8, 9 and 10!

Including technology in the classroom is mandatory as per the educational standards we follow at ACIS.

Therefore, for our French classes, students are required to download an app called DUO LINGO on their mobile phones, laptops, or IPads to work on daily in the classroom and at home (minimum 30 minutes a day), and bring them to class.

Using the app is mandatory; it will count for 20% of quarter 4's grade as a quarter project.

Downloading the app requires internet, but using it to practice can be done offline. 

By next Sunday, April 29th, every student must have downloaded and used the app.

Students will be quizzed on the content regularly. 

Thank you and good luck!

WITHOUT USING GOOGLE TRANSLATE, translate the whole text "Pierre a un rendez-vous" pages 108-109 in your copybooks. You should be able to understand everything from what we have covered in class together, as well as from the context itself. It's ok if you make mistakes, but it's not OK to use Google Translate. (I will know! If you do, you will get a big fat 0!)

Guide to answering the questions
1. Où = Where/ Quand = When / se passe = takes place / la scène = the scene
2. Veut savoir = wants to know

4. A fait = did / hier soir = yesterday night
5. A la fin = at the end 






Pour le Lundi 29 janvier 2018


Classe 9B


• Use Google Translate to help you understand what the text "Pierre a un rendez-vous" pages 108-109 is about. In your copybooks, write what happens in each box of the text. Follow the examples below:

BOX 1:

We will get to know Mr. and Mrs. Duval, Pierre's parents, in this unit. Today is Saturday afternoon. Pierre is at his.

BOX 2:

This afternoon, Pierre has a meeting with Armelle. He was getting ready, when his mum asks him what he is going to do.

Continue to do this for each box.

*For those who were absent on Wednesday, have someone send you a picture of the sheet on Whatsapp, or come and get your sheet on Sunday form me. Absence will not be an excuse. You will get a big fat 0 if you come without this homework done! NO EXCUSES!

Bon retour en 2018! :)

Bonjour à nouveau!

Hoping that you had a wonderful winter vacation, I would like to welcome you to a second semester of French at ACC!

In this new semester, we will learn to communicate and express ourselves effectively on many aspects of daily life in French. We will expand our knowledge with many new topics and readings, and we will enrich our vocabulary as much as possible. We will do a lot of comprehension. We will read more about France and its culture.

The theme for Semester 2 (Quarters 3 and 4) is THEATER.

So a lot of reading, a lot of acting out, singing and role-playing... a fun semester ahead!

Et maintenant, bonne chance et en avance avec le français!
