New story

The students have been shown the new story called "le garçon qui joue des tours".  Ask you son/daughter what it's about.  The grade 9s have completed their first assignment and the grade 8s will see it in a few weeks.

So far we have been mainly talking french  in class, establishing the daily routines, and learning how to ask and answer basic questions.  Reading and written work should start in a few weeks.

There won't be any "homework" until students get a copy of the story, at that point their daily homework should be to read the story once per night so they get very familiar with it.
