I’m sure you’ve seen this poster in my room.
In the center is a sentence that I think is a great way to sum up what we do in language classes.
Tell us what YOU think this means!

Pourqoui le francais?
So, why do YOU take French?
Did You Forget?
Did you forget that I allow people to bring in French food to share with the class, to earn extra credit? We had a few days in 8th grade where someone brought in food each day and everyone got to try it. The person who brought in the food got extra credit!
I just ask that you talk to me about it before you just show up with it during class, especially if it’s messy or needs to be heated! Get out the cookbooks and get searching for some great recipes. Or look over on the left, in the sidebar, and you’ll see some links to some great French recipes.
French All Stars
Now that report cards have gone home and we are well underway in term 2, I’d like you to share some ideas about how you earned the excellent grade that you got in French last term. Any suggestions for how people can improve their grades are welcome!
As always, please don’t put your last name. Just the last initial is fine.
This is what was in the box!
Lots of fun magazines, TV guides, catalogs and even a phone book! We have a calendar with Saint’s days to celebrate, post cards and a picture of Mlle. Haquet’s 9th graders.
They also sent enough of their famous butter cookies to share with 3 of my 4 7th grade classes. The other 7th grade class got to try Pain d’Epices, a spice bread kind of like gingerbread.
Did you get a special gift from your penpal?

Mlle. Haquet’s students made some VOKIS . Click here to listen to them! They work best with Firefox, so make sure you aren’t using Internet Explorer. What do you think? Should we make some?
