  1. The first quiz I took on the BBC website, I somehow scored a 9. Honestly I just guessed thru half of it… But on the second quiz, E.S.L. website, I got 2 more right so made 11 out of 40. On the radio website the first one I did was “Shosholoza: histoire d’une chanson sud-africaine” and I think it was about the history of Africa and its fight against apartheid and also about soccer. After the one about Africa I did one called “On a marché sur la Lune”, it is basically about Neal Armstrong and his first steps on the moon. For the last one I did on this website, I did “En savoir plus sur la rougeole”, it was about measles and how although a cure was discovered already new cases are being found of it across Europe. After that I did the flashcard website and could only get 55 points.

  3. • On the first test (12 question multiple test), I scored a 10 which surprisingly shocked me because I forgot most of the material I learned in French 2 over the summer.
    • On the second test (ESL French Test), I made 10 out of 40. The test was quite difficult from the beginning to the end (LOL)

    • Hommage à Michael Jackson- This listening skill was basically about Micheal Jackson’s outstanding success in the music industry. It talks about how he amazed people wit his talents also.
