Blog #4

Hello blogger's!!

Today I attended my internship with the small friends at the boys and girls club of lasalle.

Interaction

Because I am working with kids around 3-4 years olds, their is not a lot of  interaction in english. The conversation that we have is not rich. The words that the kids uses is simple.

Linguistic and cultural observations between French vs. English

I observe that some of the kids that are only speaking one languages are less shy than those who speaks two languages.

New lexicon

Today, I have learn the word ASAP. When people are talking, I listen their conversation to see if I understand every words. Two girls were talking and one of them said ASAP. I didn't know what was the meaning of this words, so I made a reaserch when I got home. The words means as soon as possible.

Challenges

Their is some challenges that I face in my internship. Sometimes I don't always know every words in english. I often have to search in my head what I want to express. When I don't know what to say, I ask to the guy with who i'm working. He speaks french, so he can help me.
