Teaching the passé composé

how-to-teach-passé-composé

Teaching the passé composé is one of my favorite French units. There is so much to cover, but suddenly, students are not stuck in the present tense.

Should you assign homework?

should-you-assign-homework

Should you assign homework? It’s a debatable topic in education today, and in my opinion, the answer is maybe. It really depends on the class, the age of the student, and the reason for the homework. I don’t feel comfortable making a blanket statement that homework is absolutely necessary or totally bad, because I do […]

French fall teaching resources

  It doesn’t have to be hard to bring seasonal vocabulary into the classroom, but if you do, the work should be meaningful.

Open house night tips

open-house-back-to-school-night-tips
