Week 32nd / 32ème semaine ♥ May 16th- 18th ♥ 2nd semester 15th week

Wednesday May 18th: 

We did Unit 14 lesson 2 in the Méthode. We did p. 55 in the Cahier. They practiced their presentations for the party the 25th,  and some little skits.

(We won't be doing the Harry Potter skit they wanted to do because the dialogue was getting too complicated, two "actors" will be missing the 25th, and they didn't all want to do it. )

Homework: p. 56 in the Cahier
Animaux = Animals
Jouets = Toys
Transports = Transportation
[Please forgive the lack of update for last Wednesday May 11th, I wrote it, and for some reason it didn't save to the blog. Today my laptop died, and I am on the 1998 desktop. Lots of fun for the end of semester. NOT!]

Monday May 16th: Beginning of Unit 14, p. 62 ex. 1A & 1B.
Catching up on homework.

Homework: Cahier p. 54.
