Hypotheses about Jacob

http://photoshoptutorials.ws/images/stories/DriedBloodSplattersPhotoshopBrushes_F902/image_6.pngHi guys,

 

today we first corrected the homework you had to do about the events concerning Jacob during the pogrom. Here is the timeline we finally drew after you spoke:

 

The scene is a pogrom. It takes place at the beginning of the 20th century in a Russian village
 
-> There was an assault
-> The soldiers killed everyone
-> Jacob tried to protect the rabbi
-> They killed the rabbi
-> he screamed because he was angry and scared
-> he tried to escape
-> he was shot by a soldier
-> he couldn't run away because he was hurt
-> he took a torch to scare the horse
-> he killed a soldier
-> he took the horse
-> he left the village
-> the whole village was on fire

 

Then we continued by working on how to pronounce /ed/ endings in verbs. Here is the chart and the rule in French that we elaborated:

 

"to be written by ..."

 

Finally, you made hypotheses about Jacob's possible future and we saw how "may / might" could be used in this context. Here is what you said:

 

- He might escape and flee from Russia.

- He might surrender.

- He may come back and get revenge.

- He may change his name not to be recognized.

- The soldiers may hunt him.

- He may tell other villages that the Russians are arriving.

- He may take refuge in another village.
