C'EST LE PRINTEMPS


J'suis content

C'est l'printemps

Aujourd'hui j'ai rien à faire

Quelle aubaine 

Turlutaine

Je marche le nez en l'air


J'suis content

C'est l'printemps

Les arbres sont en couleur

Dans les nids

Les petits

S'égosillent tous en choeur


REFRAIN:

Le matin, le matin 

Ne rime plus avec chagrin

A midi, à midi

Je n'aurai pas plus de soucis

A 4 heures, à 4 heures

Ça rime avec tartine au beurre

Et le soir, et le soir

Ça rime toujours avec espoir


J'suis content

C'est l'printemps

Qui vient juste après l'hiver

Le voilà

Youp' lala

C'est joli pis c'est pas cher


J'suis content

C'est l'printemps

C'est pour moi qu'elles butinent

Les abeilles 

Dans l'soleil

Me préparent mes tartines


REFRAIN


J'suis content

C'est l'printemps

Je compte les rossignols

J'suis gâté

C'est congé

Je n'irai pas à l'école


J'suis content

C'est l'printemps

Poussent des petits bourgeons

Dans les prés

Sur mon nez

Poussent des petits boutons


REFRAIN


J'suis content

Dans l'étang

Y'a de nouveau des grenouilles

Elles s'enlacent

Elles s'embrassent

Y'en a mêm' qui s'tripatouillent


J'suis content

C'est l'printemps

J'aurai bientôt une p'tite soeur

C'est maman

En chantant

Qui me l'a dit tout à l'heure


REFRAIN


J'suis content

C'est l'printemps.

On your marks, get set…  The time has come for the long-awaited Paris 2024 Olympics and Paralympics with more than 16 million visitors expected over the summer. Official Trailer Look of the Games A bit of history How did the Olympics all start? The very first Olympics took place 2,797 years ago, in Olympia, Greece, where they will be held every 4 years thereafter until the 4th Century. Then, they disappeared. Under the initiative of the French educator and historian Pierre de Coubertin , New Olympic Games were launched in 1896, in Athens.

Learn French with Music: Sous le Ciel de Paris, Edith Piaf

Image
Sous le ciel de Paris This week, in our French class for adults , we will study this emblematic song, by Edith Piaf.  Learning a new language also means traveling to the heart of a new culture. This song will transport you to an idyllic Paris. The French language is renowned for its complexity. But we can make learning it exciting by exploring vocabulary and grammar through popular songs. During our French class, we have studied the verbs "être" (to be) and "avoir" (to have) in French . So, I have asked my students to locate these verbs in the lyrics of the song.To help them, I had previously bolded and colored all the verbs in red. We have also studied the definite and indefinite articles in French. They are essential to build sentences: Definite articles: le, la, les (the) Indefinite articles: un, une, des (a /an, some) Song lyrics Sous le ciel de Paris S' envole une chanson Hum, hum Elle est née d'aujourd'hui Dans le cœur d' un garçon Sous
