We went over the study guide in class of Ch 7.  The test will be next Tuesday, the 23rd.  

If you were absent, you must give me your workbook, 7th Chapter completed.

Also, we will perform our “role playing skits” on Friday.  I will post the study guide for those who were at the band competition.

Merci, a demain.

You may have heard that there is a t-shirt sales campaign going on at McClure and not know the background of the ”why”.  At McClure, we have several students dealing with significant medical issues (among those cancer and organ transplant needs).  We as a school community wanted to reach out to help those families and to show our support for them financially and visually.

Each advisement group was asked to develop a theme – one line – that would show visual support for these students as we wear the shirts, but also generate conversation about why we are wearing them.  Each advisement group submitted suggestions and the student body as a whole chose the winning theme “got hope?”

We are currently selling the t-shirts for $10 or a bracelet that says got hope? for $3.  You can purchase both as a set for $12.  All proceeds from the shirts will be given to these families to meet the additional financial needs that they are incurring.  The families may choose to give the funds to the charity of their choice if they personally don’t need the funds.  One of the families has been assisted tremendously by the Rally Foundation and may earmark the funds they receive for that organization.

This is a time where we can all step out and make a personal difference to students at our school.  We hope that you will purchase a shirt and talk to your friends and neighbors about purchasing one as well to help these families!  The shirts are on sale for the next few days and are available in black with white print, black with hot pink print and brown with turquoise print.  Checks may be made payable to McClure Middle School PTSA.

Thanks for your support!

Susan Wing, Principal

Be sure to finish the workbook through to page 58.  Make sure the subject of your sentences in Ex 17 matches the adjective.

Il est gentile.     Elle est gentille.   The adjective gentile changes in the feminine form.

Il est brun.   Elle est brune

Il est sportif.   Elle est sportive.  THERE MUST BE AN AGREEMENT  _M/f       Singular/Plural

Ils sont gentils.   Elles sonts gentilles.   etc, etc.   I am checking for accuracy too.

Study vocab 7.1;7-2   The presentations took longer than I thought they would.

Merci

In class:   We cleaned out our notebooks, a little bit, went to lab to practice all of Ch 7 work.  Also, you can use this blog to access how to type accents.  I assigned a “province” for students to look up info (use culture grams, see this blog/category).  Also, students began to work on family presentation. 

Family Presentation:   State who this is, begin with C’est ma/mon/mes

                                              State name;  Il/elle s’appelle…

                                              State age   Il/Elle a…..ans

                                              State likes or dislikes (think activities from ch 4).

You must memorize this information and talk about at least 5/6 people, including yourself.  No words on powerpoint, only pictures.

If you are doing a poster, no words on poster. 

Work on vocabulary for Ch 7.  (flashcards if needed) Merci.
