Descriptions Using Adjectives in French

The main topic we learned about during our projects was adjectives but mostly BAGS rule adjectives. BAGS adjectives are when adjectives are described by

B: Beauty

A: Age

G: Goodness

S: Size

Etre

Je = Suis                                                         Nous = sommes

Tu =  Es                                                        Vous = etes

Il/Elle/On = est                                          Ils/Elles = sont

This project was for Halloween and we had to look at the picture that we got and find things in the picture and write adjectives about them.

Coat of Arms

img_20161103_185804

My crest is blue because I think my family is loyal and truthful and that is what the color blue signifies on any coat of arms. I chose the Latin word Assistentes (Assist) because I think my family is willing to assist anyone in need at any time. An example is that in the sports I play, I assist my teammates to help them score. The goat at the top is there because goats are my favorite animal. I think that my family is very courageous and that’s why I chose the lion on the shield. A time I showed courage was when I had to get a X-ray on my foot and it was my first time. I also chose a star because I think my family is very noble and excellent and that’s what the star means on any coat of arms. A time my family was noble was when my dad brought me my Xbox games from Connecticut and I wished that I could be as giving as him. I made a dagger because my family honours the military and justice.

Ashokan Paragraph

When I was at Ashokan, there were things good and things bad, but everything was better than last year. One of the bad things was that when we were canoeing, I got splashed by the Ashokan instructor and the water went all over me! A good thing that happened was when we were doing trivia and Dan gave me a hard Pokemon Go question and I answered it correct. It turns out I was the only person in the room besides Dan who knew the answer. I found that out when a lot of people came to me asking “How did you know that?” and also when I asked the kids who play Pokemon Go and they didn’t know. I think that Ashokan was better than last year because we got to do better activities and the ones that were the same were better this year.

Knight Monologue

I have been waiting for this my entire life. Tomorrow, I become a knight. I had to pray and have no food for 24 hours straight. All day I was fearing, what if something happens to me, what if something happens to the king! All night, I was worrying about if I wasn’t fit enough to become a knight. Even though I was scared about all of this, I’m looking forward to defending my people,  especially the king. I’m happy because I’m defending my country but on the other hand, I’m nervous because I fear I will get wounded or killed. If I got the chance to talk to the king, I would say “It’s a honor you’ve chosen me, I’ll do my best.” Overall, I hope I can be a good knight.

Today, I’m getting dubbed a knight. There’s going to be a big ceremony and my entire family is going to be there. I’m very excited because I will keep the Hunter legacy going. My dad was a knight so this will be emotional. This morning, I went to the castle for the preparation of the ceremony. They told me where everything was going to be and what was going to happen. At last, it was time for the ceremony. I walked down the hall and waited in my position. When it was time, I bent down for the king. A rush of excitement came through my body. He put the blade of the sword over both of my shoulders. There was a big cheer and I stood up and shook the king’s hand. I will do my best to protect my country and my people.
