School Day

In the classroom and beyond the bell: this quiz covers five essential French school words. Match devoir, examen, récréation, bibliothèque, and cantine to their English translations.

One word to know: devoir means homework in a school context, but it also functions as a verb meaning must or to have to. And French school lunches are served in la cantine: the word cafétéria in France typically refers to a self-service restaurant, not a school dining hall.
