I really really like learning French, so I did spend a lot of time learning outside of school. (Fun fact: I finished the entire Duolingo course! Sadly, they don’t have the strengthening feature anymore.) Unfortunately, I fell off track once school started but it’s always prime time to pick things back up!

Here are my goals:

Brush up on irregular verbs in passe compose

Learn the past imperfect and composite past tenses

Finish Memrise French 4 course (at least learn 100 words)

Review possessives, prepositions, reflexive verbs, and conjunctions

Make using Drops a habit again

Read one French book

Learn the expressions of politeness and question words using Anki

Journal in French twice a week

Habits I’ll take on to meet these goals:

Take 30 min - 1hr on the weekend to review the tenses and verbs

Incorporate Memrise, Drops, and vocab into my morning routine

Borrow some French books

Take some time to finish school work earlier and journal

brun(e)(s) = brown

French Friday #7, phrases in school! I’m pretty surprised that a window doesn’t have an emoji yet... anyways, you can find the Quizlet set for this here.

If you find any mistakes, make sure you comment/dm/shoot me an ask!
