French 2: Dec. 16-19 Lesson Plan

DUE: Story presentations! Students will go to front of class in pairs. One student will read his/her 10-sentence/20-vocab-term story in French; other student will translate each sentence into English.

• French reader may use script; English translator must speak without notes!
• CAH evaluates each student: French speaker gets grade on pronunciation, English speaker gets grade on accuracy.
  

{45 minutes}: present stories!

{30 minutes}: Vocab Quiz 4.1! CAH says vocab terms in French, you write accurate English translations

• p. 121, "Entre copains"
• p. 149, Vocabulaire 1

Les Devoirs: Review passé composé! (past tense!) Translate the following sentences into French. Remember to form the past tense using avoir or être as appropriate!

Examples:

• I won the contest: J'ai gagné la compétition.
• My friends went to the supermarket: Mes amis sont allés au supermarché.

For a refresher on the grammar, see pp. 58 & 60. And focus on using vocab from Chapter 4, not Google Translate!
