Animaux de la Ferme

Watch this video on farm animals several times over the week. Try to challenge yourself and answer the questions and puzzles at the end of the video. Don't worry if you don't get all of them at first! Keep trying! It takes practice every day. You are my good Language Learners - you know this already! ;-)

Vocab Sheet

Ask your grown ups to please print this sheet. Color and use it to practice the new vocabulary. If you can't print it, draw your animals on a piece of paper and label them. :-)

Week 3 - Les Animaux de la Ferme - part 2

Watch this version of "La Petite Poule Rousse" (The Little Red Hen). Before watching, turn on the closed captions in French so that you can follow along. The button is the "cc" box on the bottom right of the video.

As you watch and listen, pay attention to the names of the farm animals and also be on the look out for the weather terms you know!

week 4 - Animaux de la ferme bingo!

Let's have a little fun this week! If you would like to play French Farm Animal Bingo you will have to print one of the bingo cards attached below. You do not have to print ALL of them. If you can't print one, then make your own board by copying one of the boards in the document. You will also need something to use for marking your spaces. Some suggestions are pennies, squares of paper, cubes, beans or some other small objects you have at home.

I will send a separate email with the information for connecting to our Zoom session.

Plan for our session to take place on Wednesday, April 8th.

If you can't print the pages, make your own version by drawing the pictures and writing the words. Then cut them out the same way.
