Here is last year's final exam for 1013. Please print it off and complete it so we can go over it on Wednesday. Happy studying!

The final is Friday, May 10th from 1-3 PM in JB Hunt 216.

PS- If you have time, I would really appreciate your feedback on the teacher evaluation. As a new teacher, I really need to know what worked for you and what could be improved. I believe the evals close today so don't forget to do it! Thanks in advance!

Here is a review sheet for Exam 3 with plenty of practice. Here are the answers (a couple typos that were pointed out to me have been corrected!)
A couple of the powerpoints were not displaying properly but they should be now.

Below are the power points I made for chapters 9 and 10. Some of them are "interactive" so if you want to quiz yourself on conjugations, just download the file as a power point document and put it in presentation mode:

subjunctive: expressions d'obligation
subjunctive: irregular verbs + expressions de volonté
subjunctive: expressions d'emotion
futur simple practice
les verbes croire et voir
si clauses
les pronoms relatifs "qui" et "ou"

 Bon courage!

Here is a practice exam. Please print it out and bring it to class completed. Also complete the subjunctive handout from class and My French Lab exercises 10-41, 10-43.

les devoirs pour le 15 avril et d'autres informations importantes!

My French Lab 10-4, 10-7, 10-9, 10-10

Don't forget that oral exams start next week! Make sure you are signed up with an instructor OTHER than me (either Nii Ayi or Doug Miller). You can sign up outside Kimple 204B or 513.

Someone wanted to know if you will be expected to speak in different verb tenses during the exam -- the answer is yes! But don't let that intimidate you! You are already familiar with the passe compose, imparfait, futur simple and subjunctive tenses so just review the material and practice saying some sentences out loud. As odd as it may sound, a great way to prepare is just to have some conversations with yourself over the topics we've been studying (education, professions, travel, entertainment, etc). Be confident and try to have fun and you'll do well!

Also, final drafts of the composition are due Monday, April 22nd. Please type and double space and hand in the original with the final copy. Don't hesitate to see me if you have questions - I'll be happy to help.

Bon week-end!

les devoirs pour le 3 avril

Correction! I mistakenly said in class that the nous and vous forms of prendre in the subjunctive were prennions and prenniez, respectively. In fact, this verb is irregular and the forms are vous preniez and nous prenions. The other forms do take the double 'n.' (Comprendre will follow the same pattern.) Je m'excuse! More on irregular verbs in the subjunctive next time. (Yay.)

Conjuguate the verbs parler, servir, obéir, and comprendre in the subjunctif. (see page 280 for formation rules - will be collected at the beginning of class)  2:30 class - manger instead of parler
