Back to school

09.09.2009

Today the answer to the question I asked last time was: Yes, You had a test! A vocabulary test. I have corrected your tests and ...suspens... results : next time!

Then we did a short brainstorming. Brainstorming= tempête dans le cerveau ou quand les neurones s'agitent pour produire des mots en relation avec un thème. Et aujourd'hui le thème était : SCHOOL

Congratulations! You came up with many words: classroom, homework, teachers, sudents, pupils, listening, learning, children, teenagers, pencil-cases, books, copy-books, lessons, subjects, marks, grades...

And one student said : boredom. When I asked you who was bored in class, some raised their hands. So, my mission is to help you HAVE FUN WHILE LEARNING!

Watch this for a start:
Words you need to understand the video better:
I'm done with high school= j'ai fini le lycée
It looks like a prison= il ressemble à une prison
Chemistry= chimie
Library= bibliothèque, ici le CDI
the lecture room= la salle de conférence
Colombus= Christophe Colomb (qui découvrit l'Amérique)
What sucks...= ce qui craint...
To save money for College = faire des économies pour l'Université. College = l'équivalent de l'université, 2 ans après le "bac" aux USA

AND DON'T FORGET TO LEARN YOUR LESSON!
