Devoirs pour mercredi 21 octobre

*
• Lire la suite de La Chanson de Roland - pp. 24 et 25.
If you are still finding the reading difficult, you need to change reading strategy. You can draw a graph to illustrate how characters are linked and what everyone wants. Remember, this is a classic epic story (like Star Wars, The Lord of the Ring, Harry Potter), draw from these plots to ask yourself good questions. It is very important to reread what we have covered so far, it should be now fairly easy and the text is quite repetitive. Also, very important, you need to look-up vocabulary. It is preposterous to think you can read such a story without opening a dictionary. Once you go through the trouble of opening a dictionary, write definition / translation on the side of your reading so you will remember. 
Bonne lecture, c'est une chouette histoire.
