Animals video challenge for your kids

Do you have pets?

Kids all love pets! You can learn to talk about pets in French in this previous blog article: Pets in French

Make a video with your animals (pets, farm animals...)

I regularly invite my English-speaking students to participate in video challenges so that they practice French and help French-speaking kids learn English.

You can say:

"Hello, my name is...

This is my cat / dog / bird... (+ name)

These are my hens."

In French:

"Bonjour, je m'appelle...

Voici mon chat / chien / oiseau... (+ its name).

Ce sont mes poules."

 

Example :

Hello, my name is Margot

This is my cat Youyou.

And these are my hens.

Bye!

Bonjour, c'est Margot.

Voici mon chat Youyou.

Et voici mes poules.

Salut !

You all know the traditional song Old Mac Donald Had a farm in English, well I just found out that there is a French version of it called either Le vieux McDonald or La ferme de Mathurin.

I selected the best ones I found on YouTube for you:

Talking about your dream job - Help to write your 3rd letter to your pen pal

Image
Most of the kids don't really know what they want to be when they grow up. Some do know but change every day, don't they?  I love to listen to what they have to say about their dream job - which is a great way to get to know them and at the same time help them to express themselves in French. JOBS / LES METIERS is the theme of our Bilingual Zoom class today, and also the theme of their 3rd letter to the French pen pals. I have just added the bilingual jobs flashcards in my shop (23 jobs illustrated, 54 flashcards). Pay attention to the way they reply to the question :  What do you want to be when you grow up?  Aren't they super cute?! I love the answer:  "I want to be a super hero".  Why not? :) This week, during our Bilingual Zoom Class, I taught my students how to talk and write about jobs in French: What is your dream job?  Quel est le métier de tes rêves ? My dream job is… Le métier de mes rêves est... Or  What do you want to be when you grow up? Qu’est-ce qu
