Talking about your dream job - Help to write your 3rd letter to your pen pal

Most of the kids don't really know what they want to be when they grow up. Some do know but change every day, don't they? 

I love to listen to what they have to say about their dream job - which is a great way to get to know them and at the same time help them to express themselves in French.

JOBS / LES METIERS is the theme of our Bilingual Zoom class today, and also the theme of their 3rd letter to the French pen pals.

I have just added the bilingual jobs flashcards in my shop (23 jobs illustrated, 54 flashcards).


Pay attention to the way they reply to the question : What do you want to be when you grow up? Aren't they super cute?! I love the answer: "I want to be a super hero". Why not? :)


This week, during our Bilingual Zoom Class, I taught my students how to talk and write about jobs in French:

What is your dream job?  Quel est le métier de tes rêves ?

My dream job is… Le métier de mes rêves est...

Or 

What do you want to be when you grow up? Qu’est-ce que tu veux faire plus tard ?

When I grow up, I want to be a / an… Quand je serai grand / grande, je voudrais être ...


One of my students said that his dream job would be to hug people. What a lovely job, isn't it? Another one said she would love to protect the whole planet! Awesome job ;)

I will soon make a French video about this topic. Stay tuned! ;)

Learn French with Music: Sous le Ciel de Paris, Edith Piaf

Sous le ciel de Paris This week, in our French class for adults , we will study this emblematic song, by Edith Piaf.  Learning a new language also means traveling to the heart of a new culture. This song will transport you to an idyllic Paris. The French language is renowned for its complexity. But we can make learning it exciting by exploring vocabulary and grammar through popular songs. During our French class, we have studied the verbs "être" (to be) and "avoir" (to have) in French . So, I have asked my students to locate these verbs in the lyrics of the song.To help them, I had previously bolded and colored all the verbs in red. We have also studied the definite and indefinite articles in French. They are essential to build sentences: Definite articles: le, la, les (the) Indefinite articles: un, une, des (a /an, some) Song lyrics Sous le ciel de Paris S' envole une chanson Hum, hum Elle est née d'aujourd'hui Dans le cœur d' un garçon Sous ...
