The class of Cycle III worked on the 10 words of Francophonie which were “dracher, fada, poudrerie, vigousse, lumerotte, tap-tap, champagner, dépanneur, ristrette, chafouin”.
The teacher wrote on the board the words of Francophonie. We didn’t know the meaning of these 10 words, however we had to make a sentence that meant something.
Then, we recorded our sentences and changed the order to create some virelangues.
Concerning the vocabulary, we learned the meaning of some foreign words and we entertained ourselves by making acrostics.
Now let’s see some definitions.
You can also listen the virelangues.
Virelangues Karla et Tasnim
Virelangues Kyllian et Paul
Virelangues Blanche et Elisa
Virelangues Anis
Soon, you will see our poster of acrostics.
