Reminders:
** don't forget that un/une/des/du/de la (+de l') all become DE when answering in the negative
** don't forget that the ne... pas goes around FIRST verb ONLY
** don't forget that ne...pas / ne... jamais / ne... rien / ne... plus all work the same way, they just mean different things.
** don't forget that when answering a question asked of you, you need to use JE and conjugate the verbs accordingly.
e.g. est-ce que vous allez voir le film? Non, je ne vais pas voir le film.
(aller conjugation: vous = allez, je = vais)
You will have a quiz on this tomorrow!
It will include:
- regular verbs
- irregular verbs that are in your present tense package
Questions will be asked using VOUS.
You will only be answering with JE, and all of your answers will be in the negative.
Review your present tense notes as well as your notes on the negative.
(Answers under the cut)

- I explained the interview (partner) project expectations:
> You will be interviewing an artist or athlete at Les Jeux de la Francophonie (Côte d'Ivoire)
> You will also be creating a persona, and be interviewed.
> You will be representing a participating country (list to be given)
> Interview Questions: Present / Futur Proche, 3 types of questions (Inversion, Intonation, Est-ce que), Question words (Combien, Pourquoi, Quand...), Relate to the person being interviewed (e.g. athlete being asked about sports), 1 or 2 questions that relates to the person's country (e.g. food/climate/languages... etc.), use VOUS
> Interview Answers: Present/Futur Proche, positively (oui) and negatively (non), please respond in complete sentences, use JE, varied vocabulary
> Each interview should last 1 minute
> You will be getting a speaking mark for this.
> It must be in video format: this will give you more of an opportunity to practice, re-do takes, still "present" in front of the class, but not live!
Some options for the video:
Interview question written on screen with voice-over, then cut to person being interviewed
Interview question said live by interviewer, then cut to person being interviewed
I do not recommend a "live interview"
This is where you set-up a trip-pod and both speak back and forth.
The sound/quality tends to be better in the two examples described above,
and it will be easier to re-do takes if one of you makes a mistake.
HOWEVER, if your heart is set on a live interview and you can make it work...
go for it!
If you have another interview style that you want to try/suggest, just ask me about it :)
* Thursday: be assigned partner/create your persona/pick country/work on passport.
* Friday: figure out questions and answers, write them all down, put through BonPatron, ask for help, practice.
* Monday: Filming/add finishing touches. I have requested the iPads, but if possible, I also ask that one of you finds an app that you like for movie-making on your phone. Splice is a good free application.
