Unité 5 - Lecon 4: Tu as faim?

Chers Parents,

This week and the coming week we are working on the expression:

Are you hungry?
What do you want to eat?

We view different vocabulary words:
Carrots, salad/lettuce (same word used in French), potatoes, rice, fries, chicken, meat, fish, ice cream, chocolate cake and ice cream.

Many of these are similar in French and English.

I sent home a homework that your student might find a little more challenging.

Here is the explanation if you are confused too.

The sentences ask the students what they want to drink (boire: sentence 1 only) or eat (manger) as main course (=plat) or as dessert (=dessert... that is a hard one to guess :-) ).

They can answer writing:

I want to drink => Je veux boire ..............

I want to eat => Je veux manger ..............

The back of the page has a word bank in case your student forgot his/her French notebook home.

Bon weekend!

Unité 5 - leçon 3: Tu as soif?

Bonjour chers Parents!

Welcome back to school8 It was great meeting some of you during the P/T conference. Thank you so much for your support!

We are currently learning how to ask for a drink in French.

Are you thirsty? What do you want to drink?

From there we will learn some drinks in French:

Water, milk, Coke, Juice, coffee, tea and hot chocolate.

5th grade will also learn: bottle, glass, mug/cup and bowl.

The students seems to be already comfortable using the question and answering it. We will reinforce the vocabulary and the fluency of the short dialogue.

Bonne journée!
