French 3 students - we spent the day in the computer lab working on passé composé and imparfait. YOU NEED TO BE ABLE TO CONJUGATE VERBS IN THESE TWO FORMS! If you cannot I urge you to spend some time on Conjuguemos between now and Friday, Feb. 10. We will be in the library on Feb. 3 and Feb. 10 doing skills tests for the passé composé and the imparfait. Feb. 3 will be a completion grade but Feb. 10 will be an accuracy grade.

Dear Parents -

I apologize for not having the syllabus posted to my blog. I tried to upload it this afternoon and am having technical difficulties. I have scheduled for Tech Support to come tomorrow so the syllabus for both French 3 and AP French should be posted by this weekend.

FRENCH 3 - Today's in-class activities -

• Groups finished Nemo summaries and turned in (periods 1 & 4)
• Practice with differentiating between passe compose and imparfait
• 2nd period completed activity 5 from the packet.
• FOR TOMORROW periods 1 and 4 should have completed activity 5 in the packet. Period 2 should have completed activity 6. Also, if you are still struggling with how to conjugate verbs in the passe compose and the imparfait you need to practice on Conjuguemos. I do not have specific activities for these conjugations - just use the ones already in the Conjuguemos library.

AP - MAKE SURE YOU ARE PREPARD TOMORROW! My technical difficulties prevented the cultural presentation from recording - again. This means your grade tomorrow will be even more important!
