Page 2: French and English School Supplies
This page expands on the previous vocabulary, presenting a comprehensive list of school objects in both French and English. It serves as an excellent resource for bilingual learning and comparison between the two languages.
The page is divided into two columns:
- "En Français" (In French)
- "In English"
Each column lists ten essential school supplies, allowing students to see the French and English terms side by side. This layout facilitates easy comparison and memorization of the vocabulary in both languages.
The items listed include:
- Pencil (un crayon)
- Marker (un feutre)
- Highlighter (un surligneur)
- Scissors (des ciseaux)
- Pen (un stylo)
- Sharpener (un taille-crayon)
- Eraser (une gomme)
- Glue tube (un tube de colle)
- Compass (un compas)
- Ruler (une règle)
Definition: A highlighter is a type of marker used to emphasize text by coloring over it with a transparent, often fluorescent color.
This expanded list covers a wider range of objects in the classroom, providing students with a more comprehensive vocabulary set for discussing school supplies in both French and English.
Vocabulary: Note that "une gomme" in French translates to "an eraser" in English, not "gum" as some might assume.
This bilingual list is an invaluable tool for students learning either French or English, supporting language acquisition and cultural understanding. It can be used for various learning activities, such as memory games, translation exercises, or classroom object identification tasks.
Example: A teacher could use this list to create a pencil case game where students must identify and name objects in both languages, enhancing their bilingual skills.
