Commands Using l'impératif

8th grade French students are learning to give commands in French using l'impératif (the imperative). Today we acted out different commands in class and they tried to guess what command their classmate was giving.

Attendons nos amis ((Let's)Wait for our friends)
Vicki L and Hannah O

Ouvre la porte (Open the door)
Claire B

Descendez les escaliers (Go down the stairs)
Amy G

Mangeons un croque-monsieur ((Let's) Eat a grilled ham and cheese)
Amy G and Hannah O

And a very dramatic--Tombons les escaliers
Carson J

(Let's) Fall down the stairs  ;)

Passé Composé Rap

7th grade French is learning about the past tense of verbs in the tense of passé composé, using the helping verb être(to be). This is a rap video we have watched in class to help them remember which verbs use être for the passé composé, and the different past participles. It is fun and a bit silly, but helps with memorization!
