How do you express what you like and don’t like to do.   J’aime danser, Je n’aime pas danser.

The first verb is “aimer” which is conjugated with the subject Je.  

The second verb is “danser” which is not conjugated.  The ne, pas goes around the first verb.

We did partner activities in troisième étape.  You must study all vocab in this section for TEST on Friday.

We did some activities with the overhead transparencies and began writing a small book about what I like, what I dislike, what I prefer and what I detest.  (3 sentences for each).  Try to find some pictures to go along with your text, or else draw this yourself.

It is easier to associate gestures with verbs.  We did this in class for verbs found in 3ieme etape.  

 

Les devoirs:  find pictures for little book.    Do pages  6,7,8 in workbook.  This is for Wed. Amusez-vous bien, a plus.

Devoirs:  in the workbook (travaux) do pages 3 , 4, 5  : you may have done one of these pages already.   I gave out a euro half-sheet page to keep track of homework assignments.  (four total).  Please put in your cahier, don’t misplace this. 

We are still discussing  regular er verbs and how you conjugate them.  Once you understand this, you are able to say a lot in french since most verbs in french end in  “er”.    Our main theme is what things you like, then what activities you like.  Continue to practice vocab on quizlet or with your flashcards.  Continue to write out numbers 1-20 while you watch tv.  Everything I have given to you so far will be on the test next Friday.  Alphabet, numbers, Chapter 1, culture we have talked about.  Spelling will count.   If you need some practice, e-mail me at susan.grimes@cobbk12.org.   We will set up a time to come in the AM.   Merci  ….
