FRENCH - GRADES 7 & 8

Students will have class time the week of Feb. 3 - 7 to prepare their group presentation of the play. There should be no need to meet as a group outside of French class periods. Have all materials necessary to have a productive week in class (i.e. props, costumes, filming equipment, art materials - material needs vary depending on presentation option).

All students have been given feedback regarding pronunciation, fluency and expression of their play lines. Students should continue practicing at home on their own (using the DVD as support). Mme Tate has a few extra copies of the DVD if you'd like to borrow one. You can also book an appointment outside class time for one-on-one practice with Mme Tate. You also have the option of bringing in a USB memory stick for Mme Tate to copy a recording of your character's lines so you can practice at home.
