[20 minutes] New Grammar Practice: Possessive Pronouns! p. 94

• Point to use of masculine, feminine, and plural forms of possessives in the oral practice we just did.
• Show complete forms for all six grammatical persons.
• Emphasize distinction between English his/her and French son/sa/ses: in English, we pick the possessive pronoun based on who owns the thing; in French we pick the possessive pronoun based on the thing possessed:

  • Marie a son livre.
  • Bob écoute sa mère.
  • Marie écoute sa mère.
