Virtual Story Time with Rhéal Allain: Sunday, February 26th @1pm EST

Join Professor Rhéal Allain, a French Second Language (FLS) professor at the University of Ottawa for a Bilingual Virtual Storytime session on Sunday, February 26th, from 1-2pm EST. Professor Allain has been teaching FLS all of his life.

In this session, participants will learn about Bilingualism in Ottawa and will be able to practice their French in this interactive virtual session. There will be opportunities to ask questions as well as draw so please tune in with some paper and crayons or pencils. PDF/virtual access to the books will be emailed to all participants following the session. The content is most appropriate for ages 2-7, but all are welcome to listen and learn. Participants will receive a zoom link by email prior to the event. Register for free now!

Previous Session Materials shared with me by CPF National:

"Le ciel me sourit/ The Sky Smiles at Me" by Candace Amarante and "Skin Again" by Bell Hooks, both of which are available in French and English. Candace also recommends "Each Kindness" by Jacqueline Woodson, which we highly recommend.
