Daniel and Kevin's French lesson centered on verb conjugations, particularly irregular verbs and forming the past tense with 'avoir'. Kevin also honed his sentence construction skills and worked on differentiating between 'jour'/'journée' and 'an'/'annee'. For homework, Daniel assigned a module covering present, past, and future tenses, and committed to clarifying the distinctions of 'jour' vs. 'journée' and 'an' vs 'annee' in their subsequent lesson.

Daniel guided Kevin through a review of French possessive adjectives and ER verb conjugations. Their lesson then shifted to Quebec's history, covering Samuel de Champlain and key events like the Battle of the Plains of Abraham. They also discussed vocabulary pertinent to early Canadian history and the intricate relationship between the French, British, and First Nations. Daniel intends to link this historical content to present tense French in their upcoming lesson and will provide Kevin with homework.
