Bonjour! Comment-ca-va? I hope you all had a good weekend. If you're on our class chat (which you should be, 'cause it's the best way to ask questions and have them answered), then I'd love to "hear" about your weekend!
We're going to start something called "Genius Hour." It will be considered an "extra" but I really, really hope that you'll participate, because I think it'll be a lot of fun! Take a look at "Genius Hour" under "Extra" and let me know what you think! Remember that I'm on our classroom Google Chat!
