DUE: rien!
[20 minutes] Oral Exam Practice!
- Play the French 2 Semester Oral Exam video; pause to allow student responses.
- Make sure every student has signed up for a time on the Semester Oral Exam Sign-up Sheet (southeast wall).
For example: if I give you the verb répondre, don't just write Je réponds, j'ai répondu, nous répondons, nous avons répondu, elles répondent, elles ont répondu. Write three full present-tense sentences, each with a different prepositional phrase or direct object or some such complement following the verb; then reword each sentence in the past tense. Next to each sentence, write what you mean in English!
1. Je réponds à maman. | I respond to Mom. |
2. J'ai répondu à maman. | I responded to Mom. |
3. Nous répondons aux questions. | We are responding to the questions. |
4. Nous avons répondu aux questions. | We answered the questions. |
5. Michel et Murièle ne répondent pas aux enfants. | Michel and Murièle don't answer the children. |
6. Michel et Murièle ne répondent pas aux enfants. | Michel and Murièle didn't answer the children |
- Pay attention to pp. 58 and 60! Those pages tell you which verbs take avoir and être to form the past tense; 58 also lists irregular past participles.
- Do not use Google Translate. Make all sentences from vocab available in our textbook.
- You may use WordReference.com to check verb conjugations. For example, you can enter the verb aller into the WR verb conjugator and see all six present forms of the verb.
- Do not copy anyone else's sentences. You may ask other students questions, but working together does not mean one student comes up with original sentences and the other copies them down.
- manger
- finir
- arriver
- faire
- être
- dormir
- attendre (remember: you don't need a preposition for "for" after this verb!)
- aller
- sortir
- vouloir
- savoir
- rester
