In French, we are working on learning the vocabulary to express dates. We already know our numbers 1-100 and have now learned months of the year, days of the week, and the seasons. We are starting to recognize that by listening and viewing with intent and with the knowledge of common, high-frequency vocabulary and sentence structure, we can begin to understand French. With the help of visual cues, we can now ask and answer the questions:

• Quelle est la date? – What is the date?
• C’est quel jour aujourd-hui? – What day is it today?
• Ce sera quel jour demain? – What day will it be tomorrow?
• C’etait quel jour hier? – What day was it yesterday?
• Quelle est la date de ton anniversaire? – What is the date of your birthday?

We practice with our French calendar everyday and today we created our class birthday board by asking each other about our birth dates. En francais, s’il vous plait!
