Tâche 1 

This week, we will be reviewing our music preferences. Before we left school, we had been working on a few phrases to describe our taste in music. Please review the following question and respond to them by including your own musical preferences. Some of these phrases may be new to you, but use the strategies we have worked on in class to properly respond! 

1) Quelle est ta chanson préférée? Pourquoi? 

Ex) Ma chanson préférée est Role Models par J.Cole parce que j’aime les instruments dans la chanson. 

2) Quel est ton groupe/artiste préféré? Pourquoi? 

Ex) Mon groupe préféré est Queen parce que j’aime chanter avec Freddy Mercury. 

3) Dans ta chanson préférée, quels instruments est-ce que tu entends? 

Ex) Dans la chanson Back in Black par ACDC, j’entends la guitare, les batteries, et la guitare basse. 

4) Est-ce que tu joues un instrument? 

Ex) Oui, je joue le piano! OU Non, je ne joue pas un instrument 

5) Quelle instrument est-ce que tu veux jouer? 

Ex) Je veux jouer la guitare acoustique! 

Tâche 2 

Some of you may have already used the app Duolingo in middle school. We will be using it for the rest of this school year to keep you up on vocabulary! Go to the app store and download Duolingo (it’s free!) 

Choose French as the language you would like to learn, and choose the option ‘New to French? Start here with the basics’. 

Some of these lessons may seem basic to you, but they are great to reinforce your vocabulary! 

By next Monday, you should be at Checkpoint 2. Spend 15-20 minutes a day on the lessons and it will fly by! If you would like to continue past Checkpoint 2, go ahead! 

Also, there are tons of languages available to learn on the app. I highly encourage you to check a few others out as well! 

As always, please email me if you need a hand! charlie.malson@nbed.nb.ca
