Introduction

Welcome to L'heure, Unit 4!
Now you can talk about the weather, days, dates and a few activities
you like to do. Remember that fluency in any foreign language does not
happen over night. It may seem to be a very slow process to you but it
is one that is achieved the more you practice and seek ways to use your
new skills.
In L'Heure you will:
- talk about places in a town
- talk about things to do in school
- talk about things you do at different places in a town
- manipulate some irregular verbs
- manipulate regular -ir and -re verbs
- learn to ask yes/no and information questions
- learn about French-speaking Canada
As you work,
keep in mind the symbols that will help you to remember what it is you
are going to be doing throughout the course. If you have forgotten those,
you can look back at them to keep them in mind.

You should keep in mind that during the course of this unit, you should
spend time doing the following daily:
- Vocabulary activities, drilling vocabulary (flashcards), at least
15 minutes daily.
- Practicing the alphabet or any vocabulary from Units 1, 2 and 3 that
you do not feel confident with.
- At this point you should have developed some tool to help yourself
continue learning French even when you are not online. You should either
take notes to study later or make lists of vocabulary that you can study
or even teach someone else.
