How is everyone doing? I hope you are all finding time to get outside, hang out with your family and find extra time for things you are passionate about.
I have been trying to help teach my kids. I make a point of getting outside for a walk, bike ride, to do yard work or to BBQ supper. I have found time to work out every day (except 1) that we have been away from school. I hope you are all able to find time during the day for the things you really enjoy.
For the work today. I want you to read the 1st page of the play only. Please do not do any other pages. Feel free to read it a 2nd time or a 3rd if needed. After you are done reading, I want you to write a list of the words, expressions or sentences that you do not understand. Then, you need to do some research and find out what those words means. Where do you look? It could be online, it could be in a French/English dictionary, it could be a French/English app. It's something I want you to figure out.
After you think you know what they mean, go back and read the sentence where the word is. Does it make sense? Remember words can sometimes have 2 meanings. If it doesn't make sense, go back and try again. Don't just guess, you have to put the work in, think and problem solve.
Please email me the list of your words. There are no maximums or minimums. This is about your trying to learn more today.
For those of you that are thinking about going to university at some point, the skills you are building through this remote learning will help you. The lesson today is not just about French. It's about being honest with yourself and finding a way to take a text that could be difficult to read and try to make it make sense.
Good luck today, I'm looking forward to seeing your lists.
