Clara has a dictée most Fridays at school. It is a spelling test which she generally aces without much trouble. We still review the words most school nights just to keep in the routine of spelling practise. Last week two of the words that Clara has to stop and think about each time she wrote were soeur (sister) and février (February). Other words on recent lists have been fête and j'adore.

This is what she wrote on the whiteboard when I asked her to make up a sentence using the words she found most difficult. She did ask me to write Patricia before she started.

Pretty cute, n'est pas?
