Timeline (Ligne de temps)


What is a timeline?

A timeline is just a way to display events based on time. 

Here's a simple one - The timeline of important events in the life of a child.



Can you help your child do a timeline for himself or herself? 

Instead of writing the events, your child can draw or put photos on it.



Jouer - To Play

 

Un jeu                                                                       A game

Student-led Parents-Teacher Interview



I am very pleased to be able to meet all of you. Thank you for taking the time to come to the interview. It shows how much you support your child in his or her learning.

You now have an idea what he or she has learned in school and what he or she may have to work on to improve. I know it is not easy to help your child when you do not know French. Nevertheless, by showing interest in his or her daily work and by using the classroom website to monitor his or her understanding, the child will learn faster. Encourage him or her to try the interactive activities on the links and to practice writing properly. I cannot stress enough the saying - Practice makes Perfect!.
Thank you again for your support.

1 - 100

After 20, it becomes very easy to count. You will notice, it follows the same pattern.

20     vingt                  (twenty)
21     vingt et un        (twenty and one)
22     vingt-deux        (twenty two)
23     vingt-trois        (twenty three)

Can you guess what comes next?

24     vingt-quatre    (twenty four) 
25     vingt-cinq        (twenty five)

Notice vingt et un, there is no hyphen between the numbers vingt and un
But after that, there is always a hyphen up to 30.

30      trente              (thirty)
31      trente et un    (thirty one)
32      trente-deux    (thirty two)
33      trente-trois    (thirty three)

I'm sure, you can do 34 to 39.

40      quarante                (forty)
50      cinquante               (fifty)
60      soixante                 (sixty)
70      soixante-dix           (seventy)
80      quatre-vingts         (eighty)
90      quatre-vingt-dix    (ninety)
100    cent                        (hundred)

Can you say 41, 42, 43 ... 

Be careful:

From 70 to 99, you start using 11, 12, 13 ... instead of 1, 2, 3 ...
71 is soixante et onze    (60 and 11
72 is soixante-douze      (60 - 12)
73 is soixante-treize      (60 - 13)

If you can remember that, you can count up to 100.

Congratulation!

Félicitation!
