Click on the most appropriate way to
tell this story.
Il y avait un arbre et
il a fait beau.
Il y a eu un arbre
et nous chantions.
Il faisait beau et
nous avons chanté.
Essaie encore!
Try again!
• Il y avait un arbre is the correct way to
describe there was a tree.
• Il a fait beau is describing how the weather
was and needs the imparfait.
Essaie encore!
Try again!
• The tree is part of the background (a description)
– it requires the imparfait to say it was
Ex. Il y avait un arbre.
• The actors singing are performing an action that
the audience can watch happen – we require the
passé composé to express the completed action.
Ex. Nous avons chanté.
Formidable!

was.
• Nous avons chanté describes an action we did.
