So, I think I will do these weekly, on Saturday’s, and because I’m at my cottage the theme will be around that!

Week 1 - Forest

Un chêne - an oak tree

Un bouleau - a birch tree

Un pin - a pine tree

Un érable - a maple tree

Un arbuste - a bush

Un cerf - a stag

Une biche - a doe

Un corbeau (une corneille) - a crow

L’écorce (nf) - tree bark

La mousse - moss

Un étang (bigger)

Une mare (smaller)- two words for pond, one being larger and the latter being smaller.

Example:

Marie l’a trouvé, une partie du vieux forêt. Ici, les chênes a poussé très grand comme les gratte-ciels. Les bouleaux a protégé cette partie comme une clôture blanche. C’était le seule partie du forêt où aucun des pins n’a poussé. Marie était fasciné avec ce lieu. Un grand érable avec l’écorce en or s’a reposé sur une mare qu’a réfléchi comme un miroir. Le fond de la mare était couvert d’une couverture de mousse. Alors que Marie s’est approché la mare, une biche et un cerf a couru l’à travers. Le mouvement vite a effrayé Marie, et aussi un corbeau proche qui s’est envolé. Après ça, il y a silence. Et il était encore tranquille.

Remember to reblog this with your own short stories! You don’t have to use every single word just make sure you try to include them!

Day 25 of the Back to School Challenge

Day 25: What motivates you?

It is kind of a mix of things. Firstly, I always want to get the best grades I can possibly get so I can go to a good university and get my dream job. I also want to work hard because my parents work really hard and have given up a lot for me to be able to go to my school and get a great education so I want to work hard as a thank you to them.
