UNIT 2 Week 1 - Synchronous Work #1

Est-ce que tu as fait cette activité pendant les vacances d'été?

nager
regarder Netflix
dormir
visiter la plage
faire de la voile
rendre visite à la famille
manger un hamburger
faire du shopping
cuisiner
faire une promenade
faire une randonnée
faire du camping

Oui, j'ai fait...
Non, je n'ai pas fait

Let Madame know when you finish the above activity!

1

Pour faire une phrase: To make a sentence in the past tense, you need a "composed tense" or a tense with two parts. For the above verbs, you will use avoir + the verb's past participle. Since all the sentences will be about you, let's keep it simple and just use j'ai + the verb's past participle.

Voici les participes passé:
Faire = fait
Manger = mangé
Regarder = regardé
Dormir = dormi
Visiter = visité
Rendre = rendu
Cuisiner = cuisiné

Un exemple: Pendant l'été, j'ai fait de la voile.

Please write 5 sentences about your summer!

1

When Madame puts you in breakout rooms, ask your partner "Qu'est-ce que tu as fait cet été?" and write their answers here (5 sentences). Next, using the review of questions you just did as a class, turn those sentences into questions. For example:

Elle a fait de la voile --> As-tu fait de la voile?

When you switch partners you'll ask them the set of questions that you wrote down here.
