Introduction: Language Growth Plan

Bonjour! My name is Hanne and I will be exploring the French language through the project ‘French Language Growth Plan.’ Please feel free to follow along with me and observe my progress. This journey will explore one of the Big Ideas and one Content connection in each of the grades 5 through 8, with activities I will complete along the way. Additionally, I will be recording most of my development for my teacher and others to observe.

I am always open to feedback as it helps me learn and grow. I am quite new to speaking French so this will be a wonderful reflection tool to look back on when I am more confident and capable. Posting the videos will also help me challenge myself and move outside of my comfort zone.

Thank you for joining me!

October 13th ~ Bonjour, Mes Amis!

This week I focused on learning a French song to teach students (and myself) a conversational greeting and several responses in a fun and engaging manner! Here is my practice run-through of the song below:

As I was not able to go into a classroom this semester, I recorded myself with a couple of my willing participants engaging in my French teaching song! I promise they were not bribed 😉

I found this song online and wrote down the lyrics for my practice. The biggest mistake I made was with the ‘tail’ on the ‘c’ letter, otherwise known as the cédille.
