Friday French
Bonjour! C'est Madame Hebblewhite!
This week, we will focus on the Alphabet.
(Class 4, you may want to take a look at the Class 2 and 3 activities first, to refresh your memory, before you do your tasks).
Class 2 and Class 3
(Reception can listen to the videos)
Let's start with a little quiz, to see which fruits you have remembered from last week. Translate these into French:
1. Banana
2. Apple
3. Strawberry
4. Pear
5. Pineapple
Can you translate what Tom Henry has written about his favourite fruits?
Let's learn how to say the alphabet in French today. Listen to the songs below several times. First listen out for your initials or the letters in your own name. Then, see if you can spot the letters which sound similar in English and which don't.

Can you say your initials in French? Can you spell your name?
Below is a link to a games website for French children. Here, you can practise your alphabet in French. Find the 'Frog game' on the page and click on the triangle play button, to hear the name of a letter. Can you click on the correct letter?

Below is a fun game, to practise recognising letter sounds. The evil sorcerer has captured the letters and to free them, you must listen to the words and select the sound they each start with!
I had a lot of fun playing this one!!
Click 'Jouer' to begin.

For a real challenge, click on the game below. Listen to some 3-letter words and drag the correct letter sounds to the top, to make the words. This would be a doddle for us in English, but it's pretty tricky in French! You click on the 'speaker' icon to hear each word and click on 'suivant' for the next question. Watch out - the letters are characters, some are harder to make out than others!
Click 'Ok' to begin and click 'Ok' to submit your answer.

Do you think you can spell out the names of these animals,
in Enlish, using the French letter names?
Class 4
This week, we will focus on the Alphabet.
There are several activities, so you can pick and choose.
Class 4, you may want to take a look at the Class 2 and 3 activities first, to refresh your memory, before you do your tasks.
Watch and join in with the alphabet.
Try to say it on your own afterwards.

Here is an alphabet poem about going back to school 'La Rentrée'. Can you join in by saying just the letters?
Perhaps you could send me your own version?
(Make the French alphabet sounds rhyme with some English sentences). And for a real challenge, can you use a dictionary or Google to translate parts of the poem into English?
