Bonjour tout le monde,
J'espère que vous passez une bonne semaine (I hope you are having a good week).
This week, to finish our topic of francophonie with the older students, I decided to tell them more about the island of Tahiti and how it was discovered. Some of you may know this beautiful place. I don't, but it is definitely one of my dreams to go there one day. Here is a short video that will make you want to go there too, I'm sure:
The Prep students have drawn and labelled beautiful farm animals that I will use to make a big display for next year. Their drawings will decorate the shirt of a giant horse:

I suggest you find the words in the following order and, by guessing a few that are similar in both languages, you should be able to complete it: 8, 2, 9, 7, and then you can guess :-) ...
We are now finishing our study of francophonie. The students are learning about the life of Louis Antoine de Bougainville and his discovery of the island of Tahiti.
Today's video is: Monde nouveau (New world) by Feu! Chatterton:
Passez un bon weekend!
A bientôt,
