Section One - Part D Reflexive Verbs Do you remember the reflexive verbs that we learned earlier in French 2a? Many of these verbs are the ones that we use to talk about our daily routine--Je me réveille, je m'habille, je me baigne, etc. These are verbs that, although they do not seem to be "reflexive" in English, must be used reflexively in French. Review these reflexive verbs and then do the activities that follow to make sure that you know how to use these very common verbs in French. se réveiller to wake up se coucher to go to bed, to lie down s'amuser to enjoy oneself, to have fun s'habiller to dress onself (to get dressed) s'asseoir to seat oneself (to sit down) se doucher to take a shower se laver to wash oneself se brosser les dents to brush one's hair se peigner to comb one's hair s'appeler to be called se baigner to bathe oneself (to take a bath) se maquiller to put make-up on oneself se préparer to prepare oneself (to get ready) se mettre to put on oneself   Entraînons-nous!

In this section of each unit, you will view a presentation and then hear instructions. Follow the instructions that you hear. It has been proven that more of your senses you engage in an activity, the more learning takes place. Doing these activities will help you to internalize the meanings of the words and will also sharpen your listening skills. So, listen and then do what you are asked to do. The exercises may seem repetitive, but remember....repetition is the key. When you finish with this presentation, be sure to take the TPR 1D Quiz.     Avance à la Partie E.
