Numbers to infinity and beyond!

Bonjour mes petits!
Congrats on conquering those number 70-99! Those are tres difficile!  This week is a busy one!  Tuesday we have our first half day of the year, remember, no lunches served on half days. Thursday our Varsity Football team will take on the Desert Edge Scorpions in hopes of continuing their winning streak!  The game is on Thursday evening, as it is being televised live on Cox channel 9!  Make sure to show up and cheer or tune in and cheer!  And on Friday we have our first Unit Exam.  Everyone has been working really hard and I'm confident that everyone will do well!

This week we will finish up practicing those lovely numbers 70-99 as well as learning some family vocabulary.  You will also be creating a family photo album in your ISN! However for this photo album YOU get to choose who your family is!  Now's you chance to have celebrity parents! :) Oh la la!

Feel like you need some more practice outside of class?  Our textbook has a great website to help you practice! www.classzone.com is great resource to practice your French!  Just click on Arizona and find our book!  Go thru the flashcards, online workbook, and practice quizzes for Unit 1, it's a great way to start studying for our exam on Friday!

Thanks for a great week of French! I hope you're enjoying learning French as much as I'm enjoying teaching you French!
A Demain!

Week 2 done!

Week 2 down!  And what a week it was! We started out the week on Monday with no air, which meant wandering the campus looking for a cool place to have class.  And for us, that was the cafeteria! Thanks for being so flexible, I know it's a pain to have to move around!  Luckily by Tuesday we were cool again and back to learning French!  Tuesday night was also our Open House! A special thanks to all the parents who came out to see all the great things you'll be doing this semester.

This week we spent learning the alphabet, numbers 1-69, nationalities, and the concept of noun gender.  Thanks for all your hard work and creating some great examples in your ISN's!  Below are some great letter people from 1st block. Maybe some day I'll draw that well!... NOT! :)

In case you missed the homework in class, see below.  Please make sure your ISN's are up to date!

Next week we'll continue learning our numbers, by the end of the week you'll be able to count to 1 million!  We'll also be taking our first quiz next week and we'll finally have some grades to put into Infinite Campus!  Wednesday we are on an altered schedule as we have motivational speaker coming in.  Should be a great assembly, I can't wait!  Thanks for another great week! I hope your enjoying learning French as much as I'm enjoying teaching you French!  Have a great weekend! Hope to see you at the football game and at Yogurtini @ 7th St. & Bell afterwards!  Remember tell them you're there for the PV Band! It's a fundraiser!  Go Trojans!

 Here's the Pride of Paradise playing our fight song as we enter

Only 7 more days until our first home football game! Can't wait to see everyone out on the field doing their Trojan Jacks!

This week was a busy week in French class as we all moved into our ISN (Interactive Student Notebooks). Thanks to everyone for having their school supplies!  Way to Excel!  We had some great examples of PV PRIDE in our notebooks, check out the great example below.

Now that's some PV PRIDE!

Next week will begin right away with the alphabet and numbers 1-10 in French.  Thanks for a great week! Have a wonderful weekend!
