[15 minutes] More Oral Practice: Where are you going?
  • CAH/TA lead by asking "Où vas-tu?"
  • Students respond with one of the destinations in our vocab.
  • Each student must give a destination different from previous student's response.
  • After one round, we circulate again, asking same question, same answer allowed. But now we follow up with "Et s'il fait..." some weather condition that might hinder that plan.
