Lesson #1, March 1st, 2016: Kick-off and greetings

Bonjour et bienvenus!

Reminder: this French class is designed for children who have never or rarely been exposed to the French Language. It follows the FLE (Français Langue Etrangère) program, for French Language Acquisition for Foreigners.

With this interactive method children are aimed to learn easily and happily in a friendly and enjoyable way through fun songs, storytelling, games and crafts.
The course will cover enough knowledge for your children to enjoy using the language for basic communication and expression.

Today, we had a great kick off with a very enthousiastic and happy group of 8 girls and 2 boys.

A very warm welcome to our newcomers:
- Luana Silberberg (1st grade)
- Tiago Maia (1st grade)
- Gabriela Steagall (3rd grade)
- Luiza Cardoso (3rd grade)
- Isabella Pierry (3rd grade)
- Luiza Apovian (3rd grade)

And a very welcome to our French experts:
- Maria Heckmann (3rd grade)
- Isabel Heckmann (2nd grade)
- Aditya Banrjee (1st grade)
- Manuela Bartz (1st grade)

During our first lesson:

we got to know each other (our names, grades, favorite colors, where we are from etc...)
the kids received their new books and all the material.
I introduce them to family LEGRAND: Monsieur Luc LEGRAND, Madame Jeanne LEGRAND, Alice, Léo and Maggie. Through the year, the students will follow their adventures.
they learned a simple dialogue on how to say hello, to ask how are you? and what's your name? and they are able to answer very well those questions.
