法文英文 - Parlons Anglais（12-16 歲）

This class is for young students whose native language in French and who want to learn English.   **This is not a total immersion class. Ce cours est pour les enfants francophones qui apprennent l'anglais.  

 We will speak a mix of French and. English.  C'est vraiment un mélange de français et anglais qu'on utilise pour apprendre l'anglais. 
 
Each week, we will watch a short Youtube video about a different theme.  We will learn the English vocabulary associated with the video, then watch the video and talk about the lyrics.  Then, we will work on practicing short conversations around the theme of the video.  For example, we might watch "what's for breakfast", learn breakfast foods in English, and be able to talk about our preferences.  Through questioning, speaking practice and small group interaction, French speaking children will expand their vocabulary and practice speaking to others in English.  Being bilingual, the teacher is able to explain grammar and vocabulary in both French and English to students who have little to no English experience.
