Kindergarten French update

Bonjour!

Today wraps up another week in the adventure that is Kindergarten French.  Through a mixture of songs, poems, and other activities, we have been learning numbers through 20, as well as colors and basic greetings.  You have probably seen your children's butterflies and the poem to which they correspond.  I was very proud to see them reciting lines from memory after only one or two sessions!  "Les Papillons" was our introduction to colors, and then we expanded our color vocabulary, which culminated in singing "La chanson des couleurs" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zduapTwsSwA).

The past week or two we have been learning the numbers 1-20.  We started by counting up to five bunnies ("Un petit lapin") and then moved on to count up to 10.  We learned a brief rhyme to help remember the numbers 1-9 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Db0hH90apiw), and also learned "Dix petites fleurs" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-cUWhcq2IDk).  On Wednesday we played bingo with the numbers we have been learning, which was good fun for all of the students.

It has been a joy working with your students so far, and I look forward to working with them further as we continue to parts of the body next week!
