Thursday January 17th

The children are now very familiar with our class structure. Quite a few remembered to say “Bonjour” to me, and then they were all excited to wake Chloé up. Most of the children can now say : “reveille toi!”.

We listened and danced to the Bonjour song. Then we played Jacadi. I went through the 6 actions but this time without showing the pictures. I was impressed to see many children doing the actions “cours“, “saute“, “danse” and “dors“. We will keep practicing “bois” and “mange“. Then, all the children had a go at being Jacadi, it seems “cours” was a strong favorite today!

We played Greli Grelot again, this time I added one bell, we are up to 4 now. We all repeated the numbers:

Un, Deux, Trois, Quatre!

I then taught them 3 new words:

Les yeux – Le nez – La bouche

I had brought blank faces, as well as eyes, noses and mouths to glue on. Everyone sat at the tables and created faces. We then discussed everyone’s funny faces, counting eyes, noses and mouths.

French at Lilliput Lane Nursery

Hi,

If you are here it probably means your child started to do some French activities at the nursery and you are curious to see what they are.

Here you will find the overall class structure, summaries of what we did each week and resources with links to games and videos that you can play at home to practice.

Toddler and preschoolers are only little so it’s important to introduce everything as a game and not as a translation activity. Sing/play the songs, try the games… But try not to quiz your child!

And should you have any comment or question, feel free to contact me or post on this website !
