Do you have a student who knows basic French, but doesn’t get many chances to use it? Come and join me in this immersive French experience! In this class, we will play games and practice conversation, as well as occasional art projects in French. I will be speaking in French only during this class unless a student needs help. This is NOT a beginning class. Your student must already have some knowledge of French and exposure to an immersion-style classroom. STUDENT LEVEL 3 This class is for students who have conversational French knowledge. Your student MUST: -Have experience in a 100% French immersion class (5+ months) -Know basic French vocabulary: colors, numbers, alphabet, animals, food, etc. -Be able to have a simple conversation (what they did that day, favorite things, preferences, etc.) with little to no help from English translations or an adult -Be able to understand and pick up games and instructions in a French-immersion environment FALL 2022 Week of 9/4 - Theme: Les Couleurs et Les Formes (Colors and Shapes) Talk about colors and shapes Play a drawing game Listen to and discuss a video Week of 9/11 - Les Chiffres (Numbers) Talk about numbers Play a counting game and review any numbers students forget Play Would you Rather Week of 9/18 - L'Alphabet (Alphabet) Learn and sing the alphabet song Practice the alphabet sounds Show and Tell Week of 9/25 - L'Automne (Autumn) Talk about autumn Paint an autumn scene Week of 10/2 - Les Lieux (Places) Talk about places Play 20 questions Listen to and discuss a video Week of 10/9 - Le Temps (Weather) Talk about weather Tell a story together Play would you rather Week of 10/16 - Le Mouvement (Movement) Talk about movement activities Play Simon says Draw a self-portrait *No class week of 10/23* Week of 10/30 - Faire Semblant (Pretending) Talk about pretending Play would you rather Dress-up show and tell Week of 11/6 - Les Véhicules (Vehicles) Talk about vehicles Learn and sing a song Watch and discuss a video Week of 11/13 - L'Espace (Outer Space) Talk about outer space Paint a night-time picture *No class week of 11/20* Week of 11/27 - La Famille (Family) Talk about our families Play would you rather Stuffed animal show and tell Week of 12/4 - Les Insectes (Bugs) Talk about bugs Learn and sing a song Play 20 questions Week of 12/11 - L'Hiver (Winter) Talk about winter Paint a winter scene *No class week of 12/18, 12/25, or 1/1* SPRING 2022 Week of 1/9/22 Theme: La Pizza (Pizza) Talk about pizza Play a pizza memory game Make a paper plate pizza Week of 1/16/22 Theme: La Dentiste (Dentist) Talk about the dentist/teeth Tell a story together Listen and discuss a video Week of 1/23/22 Theme: La Poste (Post Office) Talk about the post-office/mail Play would you rather Letter writing activity Week of 1/30/22 Theme: Les Fruits (Fruit) Talk about fruit Play-dough fruit game Show and tell Week of 2/6/22 Theme: Le Zoo (The Zoo) Talk about the zoo Play would you rather 20 questions Week of 2/13/22 Theme: Les Amis (Friends) Talk about friends Learn and sing a song Free color/draw while talking Week of 2/20/22 Theme: Le Médecin (Doctor) Talk about the doctor Tell a story together Watch a discuss a video Week of 2/27/22 Theme: Les Animaux Domestiques (Pets) Talk about pets 20 questions Pet/animal show and tell Week of 3/6/22 Theme: Les Contraires (Opposites) Talk about opposites Play would you rather Play opposite Simon Says Week of 3/13/22 Theme: Les Sentiments (Feelings) Talk about feelings Learn and sing a song Happy and sad face craft Week of 3/20/22 Theme: La Ferme (The Farm) Talk about the farm Tell a story together 20 questions Week of 3/27/22 Theme: Le Printemps (Spring) Talk about springtime Spring painting Week of 4/3/22 Theme: Les Vêtements (Clothes) Talk about clothes Play would you rather Play a clothing color game Week of 4/10/22 Theme: Les Oiseaux (Birds) Talk about birds Learn and sing a song 20 questions Week of 4/17/22 Theme: La Terre (Earth) Talk about the Earth Create a play-dough earth Show and tell Week of 4/24/22 Theme: End-of-Year Celebration Sing a song: Ainsi Font, Font, Font Read a book Free painting and snack

Teacher expertise and credentials
I have been learning French for 9 years now, from French 1 - French 5 as well as 4 years of immersion French classes. I am conversationally fluent and at a B2 level. I tutored French immersion from May 2020 through August 2020 when the French immersion school near us closed for quarantine, and I've been teaching French online for two years.
I also continue to take French lessons with native speakers, and I am working towards my Bachelors in French, which includes classes in advanced French immersion, French literature, and French education. I attended a 7-week summer French immersion camp through Middlebury College.
I also have my certification in TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language), the principles from which I apply to my French classes.
