Grade 7 The class listened to a legend from Quebec about a 'trembling house'. While listening, they were doing a story board from what they were able to understand.  They also worked on identifying special verbs from the DR MRS VAN DER TRAMP list, using passé composé, to match to a very busy pirate ship.
