Learning French through Projects

This term, French classes were more focused on individual work, research, and projects.

This approach worked very effectively in Year 6. The topic we covered during our online classes led us around the world, talking about continents, countries, rivers, and the weather. Despite the fact that online learning can be a real challenge, we made the most of it by using the tools we had at hand: creating slides, making videos, doing research, and using online resources. The students had to present real information about continents, pretend they were broadcasting the weather report on TV, and create the map of an imaginary or real river. They did great work! At the same time, the Year 4 students challenged themselves and tried to use as much vocabulary as possible related to shopping for toys. No matter where we are going to be next term, in class or in front of our screens learning from home, our focus will be to make technology a partner in learning.
