L'ETE EST ARRIVE! l'été est arrivé/Summer is here!

Be sure to keep up on your French. The best thing that you can do is to find a French-speaking penpal. Regardez la feuille que M. Zenk a préparé pour vous. Il y a beaucoup d'idées là.

One of my favorite ways to learn French is to watch movies. You already have handouts from me that give movie recommendations as well as recommendations for other listening, writing, reading, and speaking opportunities. Here's my current favorite movie/tv show (Merci Oksana!)
Chef's Table: France on Netflix. It is in French with English subtitles.
What a fabulous way to learn French as well as French culture. The episodes are narrated by Alain Passard, the chef of l'Arpège in Paris, one of the most famous restaurants in the world.  In the show he shares his philosophy of food, cooking, and life. It's very French, and it's a French set of values that started to be adopted by many Americans just a bit before you were born (the farm to table concept, for example). Enjoy! Bon appétit!

During the summer you don't have to just do book learning, you know.
