le 30 +31 août 2012: Premier jour de classe
We had a brief discussion about what you did this summer. Madame introduced herself to you with a PowerPoint. We started reviewing and refreshing what you have already done in French I & II -- especially verb conjugations for -er, -ir & -re verbs, and: avoir, etre, aller, faire. You will be quizzed on these verbs for multiple days. (NEVQ)
les devoirs:
Write at least 5 sentences about what you did this summer. Use the PC and vary the verbs, and hopefully also the subjects.

le 6+7 septembre 2012
You took your first NEVQ. Many of you need to take these quizzes seriously, because the final tally for them will be ONE HUNDRED POINTS and will therefore impact your QtrOne grade dramatically. These are not hard. They are the same quiz over and over and over. No verb ever gets partial credit; 1 mistake = -2pt
We started the REVIEW PACKET: Subject Pn, Regular conjugation and Possessive Pronouns (my, your, his, etc). The mnemonic device we used in class: We Will Rock You.
Your first HW was handed back. Put more time into your HW, and you will get better results. This was the first written assignment using the PC. If you find the PC a challenge or confusing, SEE ME FOR HELP. It's not going away.
les devoirs:
1. Based on my notations, re-write your paragraph about your summer. Add detail.
2. Study for the NEVQ!!!!!!

Corrected HW; did a worksheet on standard reflexive verb conjugation. If you do not understand reflexive verbs: SEE ME.
You took notes on how to put Reflexive Verbs in the PASSE COMPOSE. All reflexive verbs are ETRE for PC. The etre conjugation (part 1) goes between the Reflexive Pronoun (me, te, se, etc) and the pp. The PP agrees ONLY IF there is NO BODY PART.

1. C76 tout
2. TPG all 2-sided

Worked on exercise vocabulary. Learned the verb DEVOIR. It's an irregular conjugation. Memorize it. We will use it a lot. You learned how to use the pronoun EN to replace "de + stuff". You used "en" last year with Madame Taweh in the food unit. Now we are applying it to our exercise activities.
