Jeudi, toujours le gris...

This morning, a few notables from around the school board came by to check out how cool our students and school are. Hopefully, they got a good idea of the awesomeness of everyone and everything that makes Winona!

With classes, Monsieur Wanie took up the Tex and Tammy homework... Most students did well, however there were still a few who came up with excuses! Students take note: if you are away, it's your responsibility to get your work done. Check the blog, phone a friend, come in early, buy someone lunch, whatever, just get it done! The next homework page (due tomorrow) is the first 12 questions from here: http://www.laits.utexas.edu/tex/gr/ver2.html

As well, students chose their "Grand Canadien" and had him or her approved by Monsieur Wanie. For homework, students need to write out the little French descriptive paragraph that goes with their chosen person. (due tomorrow). And for Monday the 12th of December, students must have a picture of their person printed out in order to do begin the artwork.

Later in the day, students worked on a note-taking exercise using the "Histoire" jump-start folders...

For the second 12 verb homework assignment what kind of verbs are they? Because when I was doing it it said that a couple of them were wrong because it was supposed to have an accent but in the bracketed verb it didn't have an accent... I'm confused!

DRU said...

Katie-Jane: Sometimes the infinitive (the bracketed verb) is slightly differently spelled when conjugated. Notice that all the verbs on Ver2 are irregular!

Najat: I can't confirm that choice without my list. Come in early!

Mosieur Wanie I just forgot-are we supposed to write the paragraph in French or can we do it in English?

Leda said...

Hi Mr.Wanie how big should the picture be?

Katie-Jane Flach said...

OHHHHHHHH!!! That explains A LOT! Thank you!

DRU said...

Isabelle: The paragraph is written in French for you already! All yo need to do is copy it down!!!

Leda: Big enough to be able to draw the artwork from.

Isabelle said...

Oh, yeah, yeah sorry. I had it in my head for some reason that we were supposed to write it ourselves!! È stato un errore, mi spiace

About the accidental Italian:
Okay, it's a little confusing with languages right now, I was just doing some Italian music and when you're singing pieces of music in Italian, French, Russian, Old English, German, Latin, Maori and Hebrew, it gets a little crazy!!
And I'm tired.
