If you need something or forgot something, please ask before class starts.
When you’re absent you’re expected to catch up on homework (PRONOTE will be daily updated, you can ask your parents).
We will use this class website, Google Classroom for digital activities and sometimes Moodle, which you can access with your lfb email address.
Material
You need a notebook, a folder with paper and transparent pockets, or a display book (=cahier, classeur, porte-vues) with paper, whichever you prefer.
You will need it in each class and in it, you’ll keep track of the vocabulary, grammar lessons and activities we do in class – each chapter needs to be kept in your folder until the final evaluation. Have paper to write on, keep your notes clean and organized. I’ll collect them from time to time and check how you organize yourself. Don’t hesitate to ask if you need help or have any doubt.
Seating in class
At first you will choose your seat and will be assigned one if you talk to your classmates. If there is a seating chart, you are expected to seat there – except during group activities, and it will change periodically throughout the year.
Don’t hesitate to say if you need to be in the front (i.e. to see the board better).
Oral Participation and Homework
Participate as much as possible in the written and oral activities. Don’t hesitate to use the school library to read, watch and listen to documents in English.
Use the Internet or any other resources to be as much as possible in contact with the English language.
At the end of each term you’ll get a ‘note de vie de classe’ which evaluates your progress (participation to the class activities, homework, oral tests conducted at the beginning of a class to check that you’ve done personal work).
