Introduction

Welcome to Le temps, Unit 3!

matterhorn
Now you can talk about the days, dates and a few activities you like to do. You must keep in mind 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 Le Temps you will:

  1. talk about the weather
  2. talk about the seasons
  3. convert degrees from the Fahrenheit scale to Centigrade and vice versa
  4. express possession
  5. learn the indefinite articles
  6. manipulate regular -er verbs
  7. talk about what you wear in various situations
  8. learn about Switzerland

 

 

 

 

 

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.
