Joyeux premier mai

I tried to send you (or those of you whose email I had note of at home) a virtual card. Generally they don't work in school which is a shame as the pupils could have fun designing one. Even the instructions in French wold be challenging.

Remember I add all my finds to delicious. Today I revisited DLT kids and found a super domino maker amongst lots of other goodies like French calendars.

la Saint Valentin

Poème d'amour
Le quatorze février, c est la Saint Valentin, la fête des amoureux. Pour fêter ce jour on va composer des poèmes d'amour selon cette rubrique - 

Sans toi, je suis un jardin sans fleurs

Sans toi, je suis un lac sans eau

sans = without and it can be followed by a noun with no article eg sans fleurs

you could put comme = like after je suis but I think it sounds better without!
