To start our morning, most of the class went to La Petite, a french bakery across from West Town Mall. It was so amazing watching the kids take part in a cultural experience in the community! They were all so polite and friendly, as well as very patient. I am very proud of all the kiddos for representing themselves and KMS in public.
They definitely put on quite the show. They had to order all of the food in French (that's to Monsuier Voss' excellent teaching, he had a dialogue cheat sheet for the kids to use, as well as myself!!!). I was very impressed by how much they have learned in such a short amount of time. With the help from Nick T., Jose, Lian, Savian, Mrs. Shaw and Hansen, Ms. Davidson was able to order some delicious treats. Thank you to everyone for the assistance!
Also, it was a pleasure seeing many of you at the cafe! How wonderful it was for you to join the class!!
Here is a great video of them performing a poem at the end of the experience to express their "Merci"
The poem is entitled
O Soliel
O Soleil, O Soleil
Montre-toi!
De Toute ta Lumiere
illumine-moi
Pour qu'a mon tour je puisse
Rayonner autour de moi.
Oh Sun, Oh Sun
Rise up
With all of your light
Illuminate me
so that in turn I may
Shine out all around me
