5th Grade Self Portraits- Plus Friends and Family

In 5th grade French, we are learning the irregular verb être, or "to be" and how to conjugate! Combining this with words we have already learned to describe, the students are well on their way to creating sentences. Here are a few examples of our very original and creative descriptions of themselves,  friends, family and perhaps a few cartoon characters! Merveilleux!








I am so proud of how well these kiddos are learning and how eager they are to share--Madame Frisillo
