GR: devoirs from 4/9 and 4/16

1.  Sing and dance with "Frère Jacques Rock 'n Roll."

2.  Choose a song that we have already learned and break all the words down into syllables, remembering to end the syllables with a vowel whenever possible.

example: Fre-re Ja-cques fre-re Ja-cques dor-mez vous dor-mez vous

GR: devoirs from 3/12

1.  Practice reading Roule galette in two ways : reading the script aloud, and listening to the audio files of the galette and the lapine, repeating after the speaker.

2.  Continue editing and expanding the dialogue.

3.  Complete the "I can" chart.

4.  Make flashcards from the vocabulary lists (two cards for each word, illustrated, with the word written below).  Use the flashcards to play Memory, Old Maid, maybe even Go Fish (looking for pairs instead of groups of four); study the flashcards to review vocabulary.  Suggestion: if possible, use card stock or scrapbook mat paper to make the flashcards, because otherwise you'll probably be able to see the image from the other side.  Index cards seem to be too thin.
