French 1: Friday April 19 2013 Lesson Plan

DUE: Les Devoirs: Look at the verbs on p. 239, Ex. 31. For each verb, write two original sentences, one saying someone is doing the action (present tense), another saying that same person did the action yesterday (past tense). Use a different subject for each verb. Also include some phrase (direct object, prepositional phrase. In all, you will write nine pairs of sentences, eighteen sentences total.

For example, suppose you have the verb chanter. I want to see two sentences, present and past:
  1. Nous chantons l'hymne nationale au match de basketball.
  2. Nous avons chanté l'hymne nationale au match de basketball.
[10 minutes] Les phrases au tableau! Students write two of their past tense sentences on the board.
  • CAH checks homework for points during this time!
[15 minutes] Oral Vocab Practice: "Qu'est-ce que tu voudrais pour ton anniversaire?" CAH gets question rolling, then students ask each other. Respond using vocab in 7.2 list!

[20 minutes] Review Past Tense -er verbs! Check homework sentences on board. Make sure everyone is using the helping verb-past participle combo!

[30 minutes] Expanding passé composé grammar: -ir and -re verbs! p. 262!
  • Verbs like finir and vendre follow the same helping verb rule as verbs like manger and regarder: conjugate avoir!
  • ...but their past participles have different endings! -ir drop the -r and leave the ending -i; -re verbs drop the -re and add -u!
Practice with these sentences (some from the online textbook):
  1. Papa _________ son montre. (vendre)
  2. J’ __________ avec mon père à la fête. (danser)
  3. Nous __________ maman deux heures. (attendre)
  4. Est-ce que Mariama __________ le nouveau CD de Youssou N’Dour? (écouter)

  10. Roxane et Océane __________ un collier en argent pour la prof de français. (chercher)
  11. Vous __________ votre glacière? (perdre)
  12. Est-ce que vous __________ une nouvelle tente pour faire du camping? (acheter)
