0000000000000000000000000000<br >GUIDE DES I~TUDIANTS<br > Outside of class， you will work primarily with two components of the ，J veux bien!，， program--<br >the Manuel de preparation and the Student Tape.<br > The Manuel de preparation contains vocabulary review exercises as well as grammatical<br >presentations accompanied by self-correcting exercises and quizzes. In addition， you ll find reading，<br >writing， and (occasionally) listening activities. The Student Tape contains model phrases and<br >sentences for each grammatical structure as well as more formal work with pronunciation. In<br >addition， you ll find any listening activity that you re asked to do outside of class.<br > Throughout the Manuel de preparation you ll notice a series of A faire! notes that serve to cross-<br >reference the Manuel de classe， the Manuel de preparation， and the Student Tape. As homework for<br >the next class session， your instructor will usually direct you to do all (or occasionally， some) of an<br >A faire! assignment. Here are some typical A faire! notes with some suggestions about how to go<br >about doing the work assigned.<br >A faire! (I-4)<br >Manuel de classe， pages 29-31<br >As a follow-up to the learning of vocabulary in class， read page 28 in the Manuel de classe<br >and do Exercise X below.<br >In preparation for in-class work， do the following:<br > * read the explanation of regular -er verbs/page 30) and the Note grammaticale (page 33);<br > ~ .-Z~7~ listen to SEGMENT 6 of your Student Tape ;<br > ~ do Exercises XI， XII， and XIII;<br > ~ take Test 4.<br > This is a two-part assignment. The first part reviews the vocabulary presented in class. Before<br >writing out the vocabulary exercise (Exercise X)， you should look over the page(s) in the Manuel de<br >classe where this vocabulary is presented (and often listed). The second part of the assignment<br >introduces a new grammatical topic (in this case， how to conjugate verbs ending in -er). You should<br >first read over the explanation， making sure you understand what the grammatical topic is about. In<br >this case， there is also a Note grammaticale that provides information on how to make these verbs<br >negative. Before writing the exercises， listen to Segment 6 of the Student Tape. Here you ll be able to<br >listen to and repeat the verb forms as well agosome model sentences (including those of the sample<br >dialogue at the beginning of the grammatical explanation). It s very important， especially in the<br >early chapters of the book， that you work conscientiously with the Student Tape. Otherwise， you<br >run the risk of falling into some very bad pronunciation habits. When you feel you know how to<br >pronounce the new structures， then do the exercises that will help you learn how to use them.<br >Remember to correct them (the answers are at the back of the Manuel de preparation). If you find<br >you re making lots of mistakes， go back "and reread the explanation. Finally， take and correct the<br >short grammar test. If you follow these steps， you should be very well prepared to go to class the<br >next day.<br >Chapi/re prdliminaire 3<br ><br >
