French gr.6 Homework Oct.31st to Nov. 4h
Au Champ d'Honneur, de John McCrae
As discussed last week with all students in class, please learn the poem in French by this Friday. You all received a copy and were asked to put it in the front pocket of your agenda. Read 5 to 7 times each evenings this week starting tonight and by Friday, you should know it by heart. Other learning options: Learn one stanza (paragraph for a poem) at a time, Re-write the poem on a separate sheet, Ask a parent or sibling to test you line by line. On Friday, we will randomly select student names and ask that you recite it. Next week, on Friday November 11th during our Remembrance Day ceremony in the gym, all gr.6 students will recite the poem together at our assembly. :-) M.K.

Oct. 24-28 French Gr. 6 Homework
Bonjour! Very similar to last week's homework... but please read NEW details carefully:
We are continuing our 'Reading to a younger audience' homework challenge this week. You have a choice of either a) keep the French book you currently have and re-read it once or twice out loud on 4 different evenings or, b) choose a new French children's book and start practicing reading it out loud each night. Like last week, make sure you know all the words and their meaning. Make sure you know how to pronounce each word that you are reading.
Like last week:
1. Once you've chosen what you will read to this age group, read it once and write down the words that are difficult for you.
2. Find out the meaning of these challenging words and make sure you understand what you are reading!
3. Once you know it well, read it out loud 2 or 3 more times.
If you do about 20 minutes, 4 evenings this week, you should be prepared! Bring your book to class on Friday. The plan is to read to this younger audience, this Friday!
A couple of students went to Walter Baker public library and borrowed French books there. Bravo à Madden, Stacey, Zachery and Austin! Great initiative! The collection of French books there is very good... much greater than what we can offer at school. And, it is free! :-)

Oct.18-21 French Homework
Bonjour!
This week, your homework challenge is to find a French book (many of you already have one picked from our school library)that you will read to a younger audience: JK, SK, Gr1 or Gr2. If it is a book that contains many pages of information or a very detailed story, choose a few pages to practice and to read for your young audience.
