8red - ppt on comparatives and superlatives used in class

Oop sorry Penny, I meant to put this ppt on here earlier. But if you scroll down to the useful file section at the bottom of the blog and open up the 8 red folder, you can see the ppt in there. The class wrote notes from slides 11, 15 and 18. A demain!

Example of a cartoon from year 9 this morning!

10Fr2 Speaking Questions

Just a word of advice - you MUST keep up to date with the speaking questions we are covering in class. You can also find files that will help with these in the file box on the bottom right hand side of the blog.

Remember:

1. Look at the model answer sheets for each section.

2. Adapt these to your own answers in your red books.

3. Get your draft answers corrected by me.

4. Copy up the neat versions into your speaking test booklet.

5. LEARN THEM OFF BY HEART! YES BY HEART!

Bob’s your uncle (Robert est votre oncle!).

7AA - animal work

In response to Beth’s question as to what we did in the lesson, we were looking at animals and how to talk about your pet. Look at the ppt in the folders box (bottom right hand side of the blog) for a recap on the animals covered and we also learnt the question ‘Tu as un animal?’ - Do you have a pet? Oui j’ai un/une - Yes I have a … or ‘Non je n’ai pas de…’ no I don’t have a …. Reminder to learn your animal words for a vocab test on Fri. Merci!
