Introduction Christmas music featuring old carols, unusual carols, and things the students probably havent heard before. Do we remember the French words and Christmas objects we learned about yesterday? Does anyone know what a pomander is? Quiet working if it is quiet I will continue to play the Christmas music. Listen carefully to the directions materials will be handed out after I am sure everyone understands what were doing. My attention can be attracted by raised hands. I will not respond to wandering around, since there are small bits to todays project and we dont want them ending up all over the floor. Finish the Joyeux Noel cards from yesterdays French lesson. D and M must first finish their French workbook activities. If you are finished, you may complete another activity from one of my lessons that you have not yet completed (Inuksuk, Totem Pole, Poetry Book, Name Adjectives) Or you may make an additional card. Tidy up, put your card somewhere it will not be damaged (Mailbox is preferable), put all pencils etc. in your desk. You must have a clean surface before I begin instructions. Body
