Grade 8 French students played the &#8220;dice game&#8221; to review the different forms of the verb \u00eatre (to be) and francophone countries.

One teammate rolled the dice while another typed the sentences on a shared Google Doc. The numbers on the dice correspond to a subject pronoun listed on the game instructions and the name of a French-speaking (francophone) country. Teams then added up the numbers on the dice to get a total for that sentence. At the end of play, the team with the highest number of points won euros.<\/p>\n<p>Students were\u00a0<strong>very involved,\u00a0<\/strong>and some were quite competitive!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/abisoman.com\/broadcaster\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2020\/10\/Screen-Shot-2020-10-14-at-3.04.44-PM.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-192488 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/abisoman.com\/broadcaster\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2020\/10\/Screen-Shot-2020-10-14-at-3.04.44-PM-300x269.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"269\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 300px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 300\/269;\" \/><\/a> \u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/abisoman.com\/broadcaster\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2020\/10\/fullsizeoutput_2122-scaled.jpeg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-192484 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/abisoman.com\/broadcaster\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2020\/10\/fullsizeoutput_2122-300x156.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"156\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 300px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 300\/156;\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/abisoman.com\/broadcaster\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2020\/10\/fullsizeoutput_2121-scaled.jpeg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-192483 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/abisoman.com\/broadcaster\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2020\/10\/fullsizeoutput_2121-300x190.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"190\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 300px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 300\/190;\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Who says learning grammar isn&#8217;t fun?
