French 3: Friday November 2 2012 Lesson Plan

DUE: lisez p. 80: "Chronique: Travailler pour vivre ou vivre pour travailler?" les premiers deux paragraphes. 

[10 minutes] Grammar Practice! Students translate past, imperfect, future sentences on Shared Google Doc!

[30 minutes] Reading/Pronunciation Practice: Chroniques pp. 80–81.

• Students read aloud, first the title and intro, then Les loisirs et la vie de famille and la protection sociale.
• Work on translation on the fly: what do we understand? What can we divine from context?
• Proceed to p. 81, Les jobs d'été and Les stages en enterprise if time allows.
• As time allows, answer (in French!) les questions de p. 81.

[40 minutes] French News! We read Le Monde! Students choose headline (CAH may recommend U.S. election news or reports on l'ouragan/la tempête Sandy), we read and translate together

Les Devoirs: Each students writes four questions (en français, bien sûr!) about the article we focused on, plus four answers in complete sentences!
