Reading – (Students are encouraged to read in both French and English throughout the week).
· When you read this week, try to find some non-fiction (information) books, magazines, websites to read and learn more about an insect of your choice. Before reading, write down a question that you are wondering. After you read, ask yourself if you answered the question. Share what you learned with someone. · If you do not have French books at home, there are websites that you can access French books. Explore these and read (or listen to) French books that are a “good fit” for you (not too hard, not too easy). https://boukili.ca/fr Practice reading a book more than once and read with fluency and expression. Record yourself and listen to your fluency and expression. What do you do well? What do you need to work on? Keep a journal of the books that you read. Writing – Here are a few suggested writing ideas for this week. You can work on one for the week or do a few short ones. Don’t forget to make sure that you use capital letters and punctuation where they belong. Think about who will enjoy (or learn from) reading your writing after you are finished. 1. Décris un insecte que tu as trouvé. Utilise toutes tes sens quand tu écris sa description. N’oublie pas d’inclure une illustration de ton insecte. (Describe an insect that you found. Use the 5 senses to help you describe it. Don’t forget a picture.) 3. Après avoir fait de la recherche sur un insecte, écris une petite pièce informative sur ce que tu as appris. (After having researched about an insect of your choice, write an information piece to share your findings with others.) 4. Une écriture de ton choix. (Writing of your choice.)
