French notes: 9/1/09

Tuesday: French notes: 9/1/09
Periods 5, 7, 8


Today in class, we learned about conjugating verbs.  Once we tried some regular verbs, we moved on to an important irregular verb, être which means "to be".  We heard a song that is about conjugating that very verb... if you want a copy of the song, bring a blank CD to Ms.P and she'll load it up with French songs.  Also, each table did a "bonjour" skit and turned in the script for a grade.  If the whole group wanted 5 extra points, they performed the skit in front of the class.

We also learned how to ask and give names.
Comment tu t'appelles? means what's your name?
Je m'appelle Ms. P.   means my name is Ms. P
Comment elle s'appelle? means what is her name?
Elle s'appelle Maria  means her name is Maria.


We have a quiz on Friday!! The quiz is about pronouns and être.


Here are the notes we took today.
