Calendar Work and School

🗓️ Your French Calendar, Work & School Adventure!

Imagine you have a magical calendar that speaks French. Every day, every month, and every season has a special French name. Let’s learn them all and become calendar wizards!

📅 Days of the Week (Les Jours de la Semaine)

Think of the week as a train with 7 colorful cars. Each car has a French name!

🎯 Quick Pattern

Notice how most days end in -di? That’s like our “-day” in English!

Example Sentences:

• Lundi, je vais à l’école. → Monday, I go to school.
• Samedi, je joue avec mes amis. → Saturday, I play with my friends.

🌸 Months of the Year (Les Mois de l’Année)

The 12 months are like 12 chapters in a storybook. Each one brings something special!

🎯 Pattern Alert!

• The last 4 months all end in -bre → septembre, octobre, novembre, décembre
• They sound almost like English! Easy wins! 🏆

Example:

• Mon anniversaire est en mai. → My birthday is in May.
• Noël est en décembre. → Christmas is in December.

🍂 The Four Seasons (Les Quatre Saisons)

Imagine a spinning wheel with 4 sections, each painted a different color!

The weather is like a mood ring for the sky! Here’s how French people describe it:

🎯 Magic Phrase Pattern

Most weather starts with “Il fait…” (it makes/does) or “Il y a…” (there is)

Example Conversations:
