les meilleurs moments du Carnaval 2022 after which we learn slightly paragraph concerning the Carnaval. I turned it right into a
texte qui disparaît exercise, which I had first realized about from Richard Smith, a retired AIM French instructor. It is a lot enjoyable! The textual content is repeated on a number of slides however every slide has an increasing number of phrases eliminated, with solely the primary letter remaining. The scholars actually appear to benefit from the problem of attempting to recall the lacking phrases. I then confirmed them the video of certainly one of my favorite Carnaval songs –
Salut, Bonhomme! Then I take out
des cuillères and educate them a easy folkloric rhythm that they’ll use with their palms or to check out after I hand out
my wood spoons.
