Do any French teachers have any good passé composé activities that are communicative and proficiency oriented they’d be willing to share?

I’m also open to other materials too! (Including those regarding the imparfait!)

[Christopher Hughes MBE @chrislinguist]

Without language, there is no education or communication. That's why a language is not just another subject. A language is every subject, all knowledge, viewed through a different lens. Linguist or not, a language in school unlocks a much wider world. https://t.co/ytwPECVlqm

Superb introduction to the difference building relationships makes to creating pathways to safety. See below and relational gestures summary from Reichert & Hawley's research (here) for more ideas.

Looking forward to teaching an A1 French class at the Alliance Française de Louisville this semester! Ce sera un cours passionnant, j’en suis tout à fait certain !

This is how to write your New Year’s resolutions btw

@peakfluency_ @laidbacklang Exactly—12 years of something that isn’t working won’t work. Refining and revising what is done with 4 and expanding later on that through a continuous, high-quality longer program is best.

The language learner's humility paradox

The better you get at your TL, the more humble you become

When someone asks me if I speak Spanish, I'm like:

Yeah I understand it fairly well, most the time

A big thank you to Wallonie Bruxelles International for funding three weeks of training in French as a second language pedagogy, Belgian culture, and other workshops at the University of Liège. Un grand merci pour votre financement de ce stage pour les futurs profs ! @WBI_tweet

@Laelia_Ve J’ai terminé ma lecture de Madame Bovary il y a un mois environ mais j’y pense toujours très souvent. Il n’y a donc aucun doute que ce livre m’a marqué.

[Cody M. Smith @CodySLanguage]

Un grand merci à tous ceux qui m’ont aidé sur le plan financier. Sans vous, une telle aventure n’aurait jamais été possible. @asfapalms @GilmanProgram

Je posterai des photos ici quand j’en serai capable mais mon accès au WIFI est un peu limité pour le moment. À plus !

[Cody M. Smith @CodySLanguage]

I depart for France next week (hoo-ray) and will spend a month in Paris! I was also chosen for a scholarship from the Belgian government and will spend the first few weeks of August attending a French teacher training seminar.

Je suis prêt pour ces deux voyages !!
