Les crêpes !

On Friday, February 1, we had crêpes in class to celebrate la Chandeleur, a French holiday similar to Groundhog Day that takes place on February 2.  Check out the photos below!



Thanks to Mrs. Slye who brought in bananas to put in the crêpes!



Mmmm, Nutella!



Mmm, lemon curd!



Students enjoying their crêpes!

Délicieux !




After eating crêpes, students tried flipping crêpes, as is the French tradition on Chandeleur.

Many thanks to the parent volunteers who came in to help!

The day finally arrived when we got to use the iPads for the first time!  Excitement abounded in room E142 today! Gustave would like to keep his!

After all is said and done, let's not forget where these iPads came from:  a generous grant from the Saratoga Foundation for Innovative Learning (SFIL)!  Thank you, SFIL, for helping bring new levels of engagement and excitement to the language classroom!
