In this activity, students complete ID cards including personal information such as date of birth, family descriptions and personal preferences using basic, familiar vocabulary and expressions in French.
Schedule a GUESS WHO? Style Google Hangout or Skype with other schools within your
board or neighbourhood!

Wanna play? Allons-y!
New to Skype or Hangout? Pas de soucis!
