Grade 9:  Work on learning all the vocabulary for Unite 9- La Maison.  Your term project is to create your dream home.  You may build it, design in on the web, do a power point, draw it~  create!  You must use all the nouns on the vocabulary list, and label it clearly in French.  Due the 3rd week of May.

We have lots to learn still, so let's knuckle down for this last term and work hard!
