Focus on French

Bonjour tout le monde!

Foundation Students

Foundation students are now familiar with the French classroom routines. They are gradually learning the words of their ‘bonjour’ song, and can answer with a simple greeting when marking the roll. Students have practised simple sentences through shared reading of a French album. They also have completed their first worksheets and taken part in language games and songs. Students are currently practising a question and answer about their names in French.

Grade 1 Students

Students have easily reacquainted with the French classroom routines and learned their new greeting song. They have revised some personal information such as name and age, so that they can introduce themselves in front of the class. Students are currently revising colours and numbers.
