Ratatouille: It's Not Just a Disney Movie

As the year winds down, I am showing Ratatouille (Disney) in all French classes and it's not just about rat who knows how to cook. Since many students have seen this movie already, they are watching out for famous France architecture and French food.

Grade 7 Project Reminder

Verb project presentations start tomorrow Tuesday, May 1st!

Grade 7 Verb Project

Avoir ~ Etre ~ Aller Project

There are 2 parts to this project. In the first part, your group will create poster of the 3 verbs (Avoir, Aller, Etre) with the correct subject pronoun and verb agreement as well as the English translation. Bonus: One section on the subject pronouns and their English translation. 

In the second part, you will teach the class a mnemonic device for each of the verbs. A mnemonic device is a learning technique that helps memory. It could be an acronym, a list, a song or even a drawing. 

For example, to remember the colours of the rainbow, use the fictitious name "Roy G. Biv". Another one is HOMES to help people remember the names of all of the Great Lakes (Huron, Ontario, Michigan, Erie, and Superior.)

You will be given time during French class to work in your group as well as the option to take the project home only on the weekend before it is due. Every group member will receive the same grade.
