Mme Jana’s News (kincaid_j@4j.lane.edu)
FLA (French Language Arts): Last week, we we had reading groups twice, and we spent most of the week working on the Francophone country project. We still need to go over the corrected sentences and the last dictée. Please check out your child’s latest reading in French on Seesaw. It’s the same as a reading they did in November, so you can compare the two, unless your child missed the first reading or did it incorrectly. I’ve written comments for one whole class, but I have the red class to do, which I will do early this week. It’s pretty amazing the progress they’ve made; I am super pleased.
Les sciences: Sorry, no update yet.
Les sciences humaines (Social studies): The kids are super into their Francophone country projects. We are doing all the research online and in French, which is time consuming as they are not yet skilled at Internet research and some of the French can be challenging. Each week I will includ all the research materials for the project and a list of which students have which countries : Liste projet pays francophone 2019 order alph, francophone projet. Again, if you look under “Les ressources de Mme Jana” at the top of the blog, you’ll see the “Geographie” section, and you can browse some of the sites we will explore. Most students have finished side 4 of the dodecahedron, the flag, and side 9, the government leader(s). Next, they do side 1, a map of the country, showing other countries or bodies of water that touch it, its capital and its currency. Our next side will be the climate, and we’ll go from there. I’m hoping that most students will have six of their 12 sides completed this week.
