In honour of back to school...
I wrote this adaptation of the Dead Parrot Sketch for my enrichment French 5/6 students this year. I won't be teaching anybody older than Grade 2 this year so I won't be able to use it again
Bear in mind, this is not 'perfect' French because a) I had to simplify it down to something short enough for the kids to manage and b) I was restricted to only verb tenses and language structures that are used in our curriculum e.g. no 'vous' except for once, when I needed it for the imperative, no imparfait etc. and c) although I have been told my French is very good for an anglo, I am not a native speaker. I have had this beta's by other French teachers, and it's the best we can do given the constraints already mentioned
So, if you know French and want a good laugh...
