Key conceptsLes Travaux Domestiques
There are many things we have to do in our homes. These are called "les travaux domestiques" or "le ménage". Do you have to do any of these at your house? Listen to the speaker and repeat as you learn the names of these activities. Write them down in your notebook so you can begin to study them outside of class. Remember that the more you practice vocabulary, the less frustrating you will find your language class to be.
