Color therapy. A picture with an orange background is used.
U. (teacher) - Orange is the color of the Sun, which gives health, beauty, rejuvenation, and restores the nervous system. This color increases performance for a long period, promotes the assimilation and memorization of material. It’s good to hang such a picture in front of your desk.
Guys, look at this picture, imagine the bright sun, breathe in its energy. Now close your eyes with your palms, hold your palms freely, do not press on your eyes so that they are free under your palm. This is how your eyes get the best rest from the light. Imagine the beautiful orange alley that you just saw and relax.
IX. J'apprends la grammaire. I am learning the rules of grammar.
Topic “Masculine and plural articles: un, de, les, des” Slide 11

Homework on the board. Assignment in the workbook. Exercise No. 1,2 p.6, on the website http://lexiquefle.free.fr/numero.swf - count up to 50 (listen, learn and play)
Ever since I taught my first lesson, I have dreamed of creating the perfect French textbook. And not just a textbook, but a real self-instruction manual, one that anyone could use to learn the language easily, simply, and easily without the help of a teacher. When buying another book, I constantly encountered the same problem: this textbook does not have enough exercises, and that one does not have enough texts; and how wonderful it would be if you could also find funny songs or rhymes, maybe a few educational games or even information about how, for example, life in France differs from our life. So what should it be like, a French language tutorial?
Now on the shelves of bookstores there are tons of literature offering to master a foreign language in the shortest possible time and using simple words and dialogues. Even after 10 years of teaching, I have already accumulated a decent library, and this is not counting the several gigabytes of literature downloaded from the Internet. In my opinion, most books that are full of colorful covers are designed only to siphon money from the consumer. You seem to be counting on the fact that having bought a book, you won’t have to go anywhere else, but in the end, you have to spend money again and again, on new textbooks, on lessons with a teacher and on dictionaries.
So, I offer you a review of several textbooks - self-instruction books:
1. “Beginner French course”(Potushanskaya L.L., Kolesnikova N.I., Kotova G.M.) - one of my favorite textbooks. Maybe because I once studied it myself. The main section, in my opinion, is underdeveloped, but there are very interesting texts. But I really like the Introductory Course. The rules of grammar, ways of pronouncing sounds are described in a form that is understandable to everyone and in great detail, and simple exercises will help you quickly reinforce the rules. The textbook is accompanied by audio materials in which all texts and phonetic exercises are read by a native speaker. I consider this a huge plus.
2. “French language. Self-instruction manual for beginners"(L. Leblanc, V. Panin) - a good textbook. Not too overloaded with information, a lot of voiced exercises. Ideal for those who want to expand their vocabulary at the initial stage of learning, as the introductory section provides many exercises with new words. But since a full-fledged textbook is not suitable, you will have to buy something else.
3. “Hello, French”(E.V. Musnitskaya, M.V. Ozerova) is one of the most popular tutorials among Internet users. And for good reason! Each lesson is structured correctly, with sounds and rules practiced. In each lesson you will find interesting dialogues, learn to use verbs in all forms, and remember useful phrases. This book contains a minimum of theory and a maximum of practice, just for those who do not like to pay much attention to grammar, but prefer to immediately learn to speak. But, in my opinion, you can’t do without a teacher with such a textbook, since the exercises are given without translation into Russian, and they are read so quickly that you won’t immediately understand what’s what. But you immediately get used to live French speech.
4." » (I.N. Popova, Zh.A. Kazakova, G.M. Kovalchuk) - another good tutorial for those who want to master the language on their own. Detailed grammar explanations, lots of phonetic exercises, phrases and dialogues. Although the voiced material is good, I still give preference to native speakers.
5 .I think it’s worth paying attention to such tutorials as « French driving»/ « French in 3 months» . I don’t name the author, because there are a lot of similar books and disks, and they are all similar to each other. As a rule, a textbook has several topics, each topic has several dialogues voiced by role. In principle, you won’t learn how to fully maintain a conversation with the help of such books, but they will do for traveling. Be sure to learn a few standard phrases for different occasions.
6. Tutorial series "Alter Ego", "Tout va bien", "Taxi"— It’s not for nothing that I combined all these textbooks, despite the fact that they have different authors. You can take any of them, and you will never regret not choosing the remaining two. All textbooks have the same topics, the same new words - “vocabulaire”, and almost the same dialogues. The textbooks themselves are colorful, quite simple, rich in modern expressions and vocabulary. The audio materials are practically not adapted, so you quickly get used to live conversational speech. An excellent textbook, but you can’t do it without a teacher, since all the books are entirely in French.
Magnificent France is a country of romance and hearts in love. Traveling to France is the dream of every couple in love. There is everything for a romantic getaway.
Nice cozy cafes, wonderful hotels, lots of entertainment and nightclubs. Holidays in France will appeal to anyone, no matter what their tastes. This is a unique, very diverse country. And if you also communicate with its inhabitants, you will completely fall in love with this wonderful corner of the Earth.
But in order to communicate with the local population, you need to know at least the basics of the French language, or have our Russian-French phrasebook at hand, which consists of important sections.

Do you want to know how easy it is to learn to speak a foreign language? They won't teach you this at school. As a rule, a school or college foreign language course turns off most students with its tediousness and irresistibility. Especially when students make the discovery that the teacher himself does not really speak foreign languages, they lose all desire to study. Today we have many opportunities in how... The Internet offers us a great many different ways to learn French, but what to choose? The large number of sentences makes your eyes wide open, you start to learn a little here, then a little here, and in the end nothing works out. I suggest you get acquainted with my methods on how to learn French correctly and easily for those who don’t know where to start.
The meaning of this method is very simple - you need to start translating not from French into Russian, but from Russian into French, because translating from a foreign language into your native language is much easier, but to translate into a foreign language - you need to have the ability to think in your native language, but like a foreigner . I have tried this method on my students for several years, and believe me, the results are excellent. From the moment you learn to think in Russian, but in the French manner, i.e. like a Frenchman - consider what you've already said. Your success is guaranteed!
How to easily learn to think in a foreign language
How to start learning correctly, you ask. To begin with, of course, you need to master the minimum basics of the French language, for example, verbs such as be (être), have (avoir), understand the feminine and masculine gender, since the feminine and masculine gender in French are very different from Russian and do not coincide about 75-80%, and, moreover, there is no neuter at all. For example, the words: table, chair, house, bank, sea - these are all feminine. Also, it is necessary to understand the difference between definite and indefinite articles.
It is very important to gain a certain vocabulary. Without this minimum, further learning the French language will be pointless; you will find yourself in a vicious circle when you learn words and grammar, but cannot apply them. You begin again to study words and understand grammar, but again all efforts come to zero and so on constantly in a circle. I, in turn, offer you a personal, open method of how you can build sentences using simple constructions and knowing a small number of words, and then you can start working on grammar again.
What you need to start speaking French
In order to master the necessary part of the information, it will be enough for you to take several French language lessons with a professional teacher who speaks French as a second native language.
Let's all get back to how easy it is to learn to express your thoughts in French. You already know some words and have a minimum of grammar, and begin to apply them in the simplest phrases in practice.
Examples of constructing phrases in French:
1. I am a student. Je suis étudiant. I am a student.
2. I am a teacher. Je suis professeur. I am a teacher.
3. I have a car. J'ai une voiture. I have a car.
4. I have an apartment. J'ai un appartment. I have an apartment.
5. I have a headache. J'ai mal à la tête. I have a headache.
6. My stomach hurts. J'ai mal au ventre. I have stomach pain.
7. I'm hot. J'ai chaud. I have a fever.
8. I'm cold. J'ai froid. I have a cold.
9. I'm hungry. J'ai faim. I have hunger.
10. I want coffee. J'ai envie d'un café. I have a desire for coffee.
11. I want to take a bath. J'ai envie d'un bain. I have a desire for a bath.
12. I am 25 years old. J'ai 25 ans. I am 25 years old.
13. I am 35 years old. J'ai 35 ans. I am 35 years old.
14. I can read. Je sais lire. I know how to read.
15. I can write. Je sais écrire. I know how to write.
16. I go in for skiing. Je fais du ski. I make skis.
17. I am studying piano. Je fais du piano. I'm making a piano.
18. This is me eating cake. C'est moi qui mange le gâteau. This is me eating cake.
19. This is me playing football. C'est moi qui joue au football. This is me playing football.
20. She is the one listening to music. C'est elle qui écoute la musique. It is she who listens to music.
This material was sent to us by our regular reader Sanzhar Surshanov (his Twitter is @SanzharS), who shared very interesting ways to learn a new language for you.
Since the beginning of this year I started learning French. I do this with the help of the English language, since I began to speak English confidently, one might say I found the key to numerous Internet resources.
Below I would like to list and describe how I learn French:
1. Duolingo
The site was founded by the creators of CAPTCHA and RECAPTCHA, students of Carnegie Mellon University. By the way, every time you enter recaptcha, you help digitize thousands of old books. The main idea is for people to simultaneously learn languages and translate the Internet into different languages.
All material is divided into different categories.
After you finish the exercises, you will be given real material taken from the Internet for translation. Simple sentences at first, becoming more complex as you learn. By translating sentences you strengthen your knowledge and help translate web pages. You can also look at the translations of other users.
Exercises include text translation, speaking, listening. There is no emphasis on grammar as such.
In addition to French, you can study Spanish, German, English, Italian and Portuguese.
Audio lessons go like this: 2 students come to him who don’t know French. It turns out that you become the 3rd student. Michelle talks to the students and this is how they learn the language. He explains the difference between English and French, first talks about new words, then asks to translate from English into French.
The main difference and rule of the Michel method is no need to try to memorize words, phrases, etc.
I don’t know how to explain, but after the first lesson, on an intuitive level, you yourself begin to guess how it will be in the language you are learning.
I personally really like this method.
3. Memrise
To improve my vocabulary, I use the memrise website.
You can find a lot of different courses on the site, you can even learn Morse code. I'm learning - Hacking French.
By learning new words, you are “growing flowers.” Plant seeds, water, etc.
The main trick is that you create memes for unfamiliar words and associate them with the English language. I did not create the memes themselves; I use the creations of other users.
You grow flowers something like this: first, remember the meaning of the words, then repeat them several times. Click on the correct answer, write the translation yourself, and while listening to the phrase, select the correct answer from the list. This ends the first part.
After 4-5 hours, you receive a notification via email that you need to repeat what you have covered. Repeat the above; if you make a mistake in the translation, the word is repeated. This is roughly how it all happens.
4.News in slow French
