REQUIRED FRENCH WORK THIS WEEK
- This week we will continue the short story unit about Napoléon.
- At this point, it’s a good idea to continue to practise retelling a little of Napoléon’s story from each book and then add the necessary details from the new stories.
- By the end of the stories, your goal is to retell Napoléon’s adventures in your own words.
- Read one story each day, keep a list of new vocabulary and complete the questions & answers.
- Days that you do not have a new story to read should include studying of the new vocabulary, creating your own questions, and practising to retell & ask and answer questions with a partner.
