ACTION!
PUPILS:
(1) Write a letter!
Reply to your partner's letter in writing and send it to their home. This way you have each taken the trouble to write a letter! Later, feel free to contact via email / electronically. (They may have Facebook etc.)Use the booklet I have given you to help you. If you use Google translate, make sure it is accurate! Always copy the French into a box and translate in BACK into English to see that it has worked! I strongly recommend linguee for making sure that phrases exist / are accurate and wordreference for individual words.

INTRODUCTION

Thanks - Merci de ta lettre.
