Our French Assembly
On Thursday the 6th December 2012 Year 5&6 organized
a French assembly with our French teacher Mrs Milne. Before the assembly we spent the other 10
weeks learning about different topics like colour and what is in our house and
bedroom. We also learned a couple of songs.
Some were about the different colours, about how to say hello and some
about what is in your pencil case. Then we moved on to write sentences about
things in our house. Here is an example: “J’ai habite a Workington dans ma
grande maison.” That means I live in Workington in my big house.
On the day of the assembly round about 50 parents came to
support their children. Some children got up on the stage to do French
PowerPoints about their houses. Those people were Jayme, Jonathan, Lucy, Me,
Luke, Amie, Jon, Alyx, Sophie and Sian.
During the assembly Mrs Milne got up on stage and we did
a couple of games where she showed pictures on the whiteboard and she said a
name and if the name matched the subject you put your thumb up, but if the name
didn’t go with the subject you put your thumb down. Also we were having
conversations where Mrs Milne said something and you had to reply with the
right answer.
It was really fun having Mrs Milne come in every
Thursday, the weeks just flew by. Most of us thought that we were rubbish at
French, but we all put the work into it and we all think that we have done well
and that we have all persevered. I would personally say this has been my
favourite topic and I will definitely choose this subject when I go to senior
school.
