In between, we had our much-anticipated card exchange, which was very cute. Yesterday we all decorated paper bag "mailboxes" so that we would have a place to collect our cards.
Over the last week, Mme Dominique has worked with the kids to make some cute heart-shaped books. They contain drawings of their friends and what friendship means to them. Check out our heart tree when you come for your interview!!
In other recent fun, we listened to another oral story recently. In French it's called 'Loupscaroux', but I think many students recognized it from JK and knew it as 'The Gunny Wolf'. It's basically a tale of caution - I'm sure students can retell it to you quite well.
Anyway, immediately after hearing it, the children suggested we act it out! We had several wolves, flowers and petites filles. We also had a mother, and on our second try we also had a couple shopkeepers and a director! The actors did a great job acting their role and helping with the sound effects and little song. Mme Dominique got some pictures for us!
Maman tells the petites filles that they should never go into the forest because there are des loups in there!
But one day, maman has to go run some errands. Au revoir maman!
Les petites filles want to pick some fleurs for their maman, so they go deeper and deeper into the forest. As they pick flowers, they sing a song.
Some of us also enjoyed playing "Quelle heure est-il Mr. Loup?" outside last week.
