Salut! Very long time, no weblog, it could appear. As just a little replace, my function in our college board’s SIS challenge resulted in June and now I am again, instructing français! I occurred to note that an previous weblog submit on French sources for the Carnaval de Québec that I printed again in 2013 is getting extra hits than standard. Is smart, on condition that we’re proper in the midst of Carnaval season, bien sûr! It is positively time to present it just a little refresher, n’est-ce pas?
This 12 months, our college had our personal festivities in honour of the Carnaval de Québec, because of our scholar council volunteers and trainer leads. We had theme days, comparable to tuque day and crimson and white day, in addition to school-wide bingo over the PA system. We additionally had a special employees member put on la ceinture fléchée on every of the 5 days and college students needed to write down their names on a poll for an opportunity to win a prize. On the final day, we had a volunteer costume in a Bonhomme costume and take photos in entrance of a Carnaval themed background I had designed.
In my grade 5 class, I confirmed them a YouTube video of
les meilleurs moments du Carnaval 2022 after which we learn just a little paragraph concerning the Carnaval. I turned it right into a
texte qui disparaît exercise, which I had first discovered about from Richard Smith, a retired AIM French trainer. It is a lot enjoyable! The textual content is repeated on a number of slides however every slide has an increasing number of phrases eliminated, with solely the primary letter remaining. The scholars actually appear to benefit from the problem of making an attempt to recall the lacking phrases. I then confirmed them the video of one in all my favorite Carnaval songs –
Salut, Bonhomme! Then I take out
des cuillères and educate them a easy folkloric rhythm that they’ll use with their arms or to check out after I hand out
my wood spoons.
TIP: I added each movies to the Google slidedeck to keep away from any adverts.
