Default Re: Teaching English in French primary schools

cjj,
Fabulous post.

Does it take long to actually learn the signing yourself? I think I may investigate your links and try this as I feel that what I'm currently doing seems disjointed (although, having said that, I'm impressed with the amount the kids have actually remembered since November last)

I've also become a little lazy and find it easier to speak French but I think the kids are beginning to rely on the fact that they will get a translation, so perhaps they'll get a shock after the holidays when I only speak English!

Question: How do the teachers react to your methods? Have you had any feedback from the academie over the years?
