We collaborated with our gardener, Joy Moore, to incorporate French with food, fresh air and gardening. First, we would eat in class. Students practiced etiquette such as "merci", "s'il vous plait" and "je vous en prie" when requesting and serving food. Above, Jasmine is the server this morning. Then we would head outside to the garden!
Floating Portraits
Students created floating portraits with the preliminary phrases to introduce themselves in French.

French Children Books
Students created their own French children books and read them to our little neighbors at the King CDC. First I teach them how to greet each other.
