Le petit chat chereche une famile - ISBN: 1-897241-14-3

This is a play with a good message for all young students, about a cat who searches for a home. After several rejections, the little cat finally finds a family into which he fits perfectly!


Now primary students in both core and immersion classes can get the full benefit of this approach! Both core and immersion teachers have been thrilled with "Histories en action ! pour les tout petits 2A", the AIM program for young beginners. Based on original play with a message about friendship and acceptance by Wendy Maxwell with songs and raps co-written with Matt Maxwell, this kit will entrance and entertain young French students. Watch their fluency levels improve rapidly.

The Histoires en action! pour les tout petits series of kits has been created for the following reasons:

  • to allow you to begin the AIM with very young students in core (FSL) or immersion programs, using plays that are shorter, simpler to learn and appropriate to the interests of the very young student
  • to allow you to provide a preparatory program at the preschool or early primary grade levels before beginning Histoires en action! with older elementary students
