• Puzzle handout – to be completed for later – Monday is fine.
• If still need more to do, review passé compose, review and organize other notes, or organize binder. Can also finish any puzzles that not done yet, or use electronic devices with WiFi to find French review and games.

• le but d'apprentissage: Comment écrire la poésie.
• les pronoms objets : With a partner, do 2 or 3 of the pronoun practice cards orally. Mark down score on sheet received yesterday.  This is the same activity as yesterday, so should be fine to do it.

• Start by brainstorming for ideas for own poetry. Can use style of the poems in the text. Then start writing a poem. Do not need to finish the entire poem for tomorrow, but should have a draft started. I will be checking on progress tomorrow.
• Puzzle handouts – to develop vocabulary. These puzzles can be done at home and are NOT the priority for today. I will check them next Monday.
• les devoirs: 20 – 30 minutes of French - le poème, les pronoms, les casse-têtes (puzzles).
