Words

This week we are reviewing the sound ‘e’. In French, this letter makes a different sound than in English. Think “book”. Again, for each new sound that we learn, I love the idea of using 3-D letters or flashcards to experiment with the vowel combined with different consonants. We won’t be looking at each consonant in depth the way we are vowels, so this is a great way to make sure your child has a good grasp of the whole alphabet. Don’t worry if your combos aren’t real words, we’re just working on combining sounds in this game!
Grade 1 words: le, je, de, me, te 
Bonus words: ne, se
Grade 2 words: bleu, feu, fleur, deux, un cheval
Bonus words: demain, neuf

PS. If your reader forgot their cahier for the words today, they have their small yellow paper in their pochette. I hope you can glue them in at home.

Don't forget, tomorrow (Thursday) is the last day for September Scholastic book orders. If there are any final orders, please send them in tomorrow. Thanks!
