During our French classes we have been studying ‘Sports et Passe-Temps é Québec’. We have gone over new vocabulary, and have studied ways to make your sentence more complex. I have been working on a brochure during class and at home, trying to make more complex and interesting sentences and researching more about our sports. During this unit I have a broader understanding of the French language and I have learned more about making sentences and grammar.

2. We have been studying sports in our French class, and recently we have all participated in cross country. Cross country took place on November 10th this year and we have all been working very hard up to the day so we could run the 2 laps of Negishi park. Our P.E. department organized that 4 children from Ishinomaki come to our school to run the marathon with us. Sadly I did not personally get to meet any of the children but I felt that it was a great way to start interacting with the school. I felt that it made the day more lively and it helped me preform better because of all the energy.

3. The national sport of England is Football. Football is commonly played on fields in stadiums. Though due to the weather conditions in England, football is only played for some part of the year. In England the weather is not very pleasant for most of the year, especially in the winter when football season is off. Football is played in the spring all the way through till the start of winter. The weather conditions in England make it hard for the players to play for the temperature can go down to 0 degrees and is snowing for most of the time. That is why the sport is only played for a certain amount of time.

4. During this unit I have learned a lot about the French language but I do think I could have learned more during my class time. I think that I could have payed more attention during class and I could have used my class time more productively than I did during this unit. I think that I work best when I don’t get distracted by people around me, I find that it is a really hard working environment a lot of the times. I also work better when I listen to music because you don’t get distracted by the people around you. I think that I could have had better understanding of the subject but due to my lack of listening I feel that I could have learnt more.
