Excellent article that I must pass along. Children MUST learn languages from a living, breathing person!  Studies show that language exposure via video/audio media just doesn’t work by itself.  Click here to read.

I taught some free French demos this past weekend in preparation for a new family French class I’m offering next month.  I’m trying something new for busy families . . . a blend of online lessons, live lessons, and a French food potluck celebration.  You can read more about my upcoming class here.

I explained to the children that I have a magic hat.  When I put it on, I can only speak French!

Then we did some TPR, met my bear puppet, and gave him a little ride on the parachute.

We learned some French colors, sang a colors song, and identified shapes in the book.  We drew shapes with our finger in the air and on the floor.

I placed some paper clips on various colored paper hearts, and the children took turns “fishing” for them with a magnet on a string.

When we were done, the children had a lot of fun making French valentines and book marks.  Stamps and stickers kept them very busy!

Contact me a Diane@pinkpoodlefrench.com to join the new Saturday class, or one of the existing Wednesday morning classes at 9:30 and 10:35.

Pink Poodle Info Sheet Session 3

Began a darling class of 2 and 3 year olds today.  I’m always amazed by how kids naturally take in and even begin to use a new language!  They got to meet my turtle, Guillaume.  You can read more about him here. We learned some greetings, took Guillaume on a parachute ride, sang a colors song, built colored block towers . . . and knocked them down.  BOUM!  I have way too much fun teaching!

Well, here’s the original program that inspired Pink Poodle French. I offered this all-girl one-week day camp in Asheville last week and loved every second. Check out the blog post and photos from one of the “Pink Poodle” moms:
