Bonjour les parents,

I’m very excited to share a new French learning opportunity with the students at Crestview. Duolingo is a company that offers free language learning software available online. It can be downloaded as an app on most devices or can be accessed by a computer online. The app has recently grown and now offers the opportunity for teachers to set up their own language classroom. This will be a fantastic way for your child(ren) to develop and improve their French skills in a new and fun way. I am new to this process as well, so I’m not sure yet of all the opportunities that the app offers. However, I’m very excited to start the journey with you.

Note, if your child(ren) are in a primary class and need some help reading, I encourage you to work with them and help them through the levels.

Here are the following links that you can use to access your child(ren)’s classroom.

These links will also be shared on SchoolDay.

I look forward to sharing in the learning that will come from this
