Here are a list of ways your friends and family can help you learn French. Try one of them and then complete the follow-up activity for credit.
Phone a Friend
Have a conversation – in person or via video chat or text message – with a friend or family member who speaks or who is learning French like you.
Follow up: Tell me who you had the conversation with and 4 expressions that were used during the conversation.
Be the Teacher
It is a known fact that we remember things best if we can teach them to someone else. Teach a concept we learned in class to a friend or family member who does not know French. You might even make up a Quizlet (Links to an external site.) set to test them on it!
Follow up: Tell me who you taught the lesson to, what you taught, and what materials (songs, sites, etc.) you used to teach it.
Be the Student
Have a friend or family member who knows more French than you? Let them teach you a concept that you haven’t already learned or help you review one you’d like more practice with.
Follow up: Tell me who taught you the lesson, and name 4 expressions you learned or feel more confident about.
