French II Assignment #2! - Due Wednesday 8/13 or Thursday 8/14

Bonjour Classe!!!

So in class, we spoke about the Passé Composé and we learned how to form the IMPARFAIT tense.

These two videos both cover the Vocabulary section of the Preliminary Unit and the Passé Composé tense vs. the Imparfait.

Take the time to work through this first video that covers the vocabulary section of our unit.
VIDEO - PART 1 - VOCABULARY

1st part of assignment:
There are 10 questions at the bottom of page 19 to complete. Post your responses on the comment section of the blog.

Then watch the second video which covers Passé composé and Imparfait.
VIDEO - PART 2 - PASSÉ COMPOSÉ & IMPARFAIT

The second part assignment is to go to this website and search for an apartment in Paris. Your budget is 1.500 Euros and you must choose an apartment with 2 "piéces".
Link to find a Paris Apartment - just choose one that would suit you!

( Post your link to your apartment on the comment section of the blog)

The last part of your assignment is to recount what you did over this past 4th of July. Use the Passé Composé in 3 sentences and the imparfait with 3 sentences. (6 sentences total)
The sentences do not have to be long at all!! Keep it simple. Focus on the formation of the tenses and not on the content of the sentences.

Email me with any questions and as always my door is open if you need me!

Bonne Journée!!!
