Wonderful Weather

In the 7th Age we have been busily working on making a French book called Mon Livre de Temps (My Weather Book.) Students have learned how to read all of the weather expressions in their books and are now working on learning to recite a French poem which will be on the last page. Be on the look out for this special French book . . . coming to a home near you in May.

Fantastique French Towns

The 9th Agers recently finished creating their imaginary French towns in class. Four to five students worked together designing two or more French buildings for their town. This experience taught them new vocabulary in a fun, hands-on way.

Monet Magic

In Seventh Age we have recently been studying about Claude Monet. We have learned that he loved to paint outdoors. He also loved to see how light affected what he was painting. Here is one of his paintings. It is called "The Japanese Bridge" and is in his garden in France.
