Allons-y! Episode 2: The Ballet
In this lesson, Madame Jocelyne introduces the numbers un, deux, trois (one, two, three) and the career of ballet dancer. With Bruno l’Élan (Bruno the Moose), Madame Jocelyne counts les danseuses (dancers) au ballet (at the ballet). Then, students visit a dance studio where dancers demonstrate the actions saute (jump) and tourne (turn). Students practice these actions along with what they learned in Episode 1 by listening and repeating terms and doing the actions themselves.
