Vocabulaire/Vocabulario

Students created PowerPoints to learn and review their French and Spanish vocabulary.  They created slides for each word to illustrate the French or Spanish word.  They inserted the recorded voices of their teachers, Señora Barnes for Spanish and Madame Kuylen for French to give the correct pronunciation of each word.  Reviews from English to French and English to Spanish were also made to study the words.  After all the PowerPoints were completed, they each burned a CD with all the shows.  The PowerPoints were then converted to web pages (without the sounds) and posted.  These PowerPoints are best viewed in Internet Explorer.  Enjoy our shows as you learn some French and Spanish.
