Start Learning French in Dallas

Podcasts - Classe A2.2 avec Charlotte

In the A2.2 class at Alliance Française de Dallas, teacher Charlotte introduced a 10-minute activity one month ago to help students reflect on their learning journey. Since then, it has become a meaningful part of the class, giving learners a chance to recognize their progress, build confidence, and celebrate how much they have achieved in French over the past weeks.

Here is one of their first podcast projects: La Famille de Joey — a great example of their creativity and the confidence they are building through speaking French.

Dis-moi dix mots - Writing Competition

Here are the texts written by the winners of Dis-moi, dix mots, the writing competition held during Le Mois de la Francophonie. Each piece is a short story in French (100 to 200 words) on the theme of our future in this world. The stories are original and creative, with a strong quality of expression. They include at least five of the ten required words, and no use of artificial intelligence is allowed. The entries were judged on originality and creativity, quality of expression, and respect of the rules.

The words: 

• Alunir: to land on the moon
• Anticipation: expectation, foresight, or looking forward to an event with excitement
• Continuum: continuous sequence, range, or series in which adjacent elements are not noticeably different, but the extremes are distinct
• Dystopique: a fictional, imagined society, or future
• Humanoïde: machine with the appearance, structure, or characteristics of a human
• Particule: a very small piece, fragment, or speck of matter
• Programmer: to program
• Sidéral: anything relating to the stars, constellations, or deep space
• Théorie: set of ideas, principles, or a hypothesis
• Transmuter: to change, alter, or transform the form, nature, or substance of something
