Keep in mind that you do not need to memorize this information, however you must only write in French on the test itself. Please take your Social Studies book home to study for this test.
In addition, you will have 2 weeks to prepare for your final project "Un pays dans une boîte". All written work will be done at school, but the box is to be done at home and is due December 16, 2013. Students must decorate the outside of the box so that it represents their chosen country. On the inside, they can include important items (imports, exports, etc.) and they must create a scene that is representative of their country (can include tourist attractions, famous people, etc).

All regular French homework projects will resume in January.
Today's awesome
Christmas Carols
I admit it.... I absolutely love Christmas Carols! The old classics as well as new songs made to celebrate the season (my current favourite is Snow Globe by Matt Wertz). Nothing brings a smile to my face like I want a Hippopotamus for Christmas (really, who even thought of that song, it's fantastic!). Songs like these that make you laugh, others like War is Over make you reflect, songs like Joy to the World allow us to rejoice and songs like Christmas Shoes make you cry (every single time!). What a great way to celebrate all of the blessings in our lives and be thankful for the time we get to spend with our loved ones. Evoking some of the best memories ever through the power of song? AWESOME!
