Model pronunciation slowly. Have students mirror your mouth shape for the "r" in robe and the nasal "an" in blanc. Use phonetic guides to support sound spelling.

Listening & Verification (2 Min)
Read twice. First listen, then students raise hands for clothing/color words they hear.
"Bonjour! Chanel présente une robe noire. Le sac est blanc. C'est élégant."
