Bienvenue sur mon site!

Chers Parents,
Bonjour et Bienvenue to all the AISL students and families!
I would like to introduce myself to the new families joining us at
AISL this year.
My name is Neena Ahluwalia and I am going to be one of the
elementary French teachers for grades 3-5. I spent several
years of my life in France, studying and working. I have an
advanced degree in the French language (Paris, France). I
have a dual Master's degree in Early Childhood with Creative Arts
in Learning, from Lesley University, Cambridge, MA, USA. I
have been an Elementary teacher for over 15 years.
It is my pleasure to have your children in my classroom and I look
forward to another great year and lots of fun in our French
program. The course is designed
to encourage students not only to understand, speak, read and write
French, but also to understand the French culture. This helps them
increase their knowledge of the world around them by comparing the
French way of life with their own. Of course learning
valuable skills does not mean it can’t be fun! Our
lessons are carefully designed to provide a lot of variety in
learning by means of audiovisual resources, games, puppet shows,
short plays, etc. In addition, we encourage students to
integrate technology and also to make cross-curricular connections
while learning the language.
Students will spend the first week going over the vocabulary and
grammatical structures already learned. I have planned a
line-up of fun review activities to break the ice and to get to
know all the new students as well.
I wish everyone a very successful and enriching year!
A bientôt,
Mme Ahluwalia
