La famille(updated)

We did a lot of family vocabulary today. Flashcards of the Simpsons were useful. We worked in groups of 4 with each person being either Homer, Marge, Bart or Lisa. They had to introduce other members of their family. eg Je suis Marge et voici mon mari Homer. Questions could be asked by rest of class eg Marge, tu as combien d'enfants? or pointing to other person Qui est-ce? (Who is it?)

We sang a traditional song j'aime papa.  We found the music in the itunes store. You get a 30 second preview for free. As it is a short song it was long enough to hear it all. You need to have itunes on your computer. Free download for pc users. Comes with macs anyway

We looked at some websites. There is a nice family tree activity for whiteboard here. My Simpsons activities on quia here. 

Made up 2 more quia exercises on the Simpsons:  pop up and matching names to description 

We finished with a preview of Christmas vocab here  Click on  "list of terms" to see the vocab list before you start.
