This 12 months, our college had our personal festivities in honour of the Carnaval de Québec, because of our pupil council volunteers and instructor leads. We had theme days, similar to tuque day and pink and white day, in addition to school-wide bingo over the PA system. We additionally had a unique 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 slightly paragraph in regards to the Carnaval. I turned it right into a
texte qui disparaît exercise, which I had first realized about from Richard Smith, a retired AIM French instructor. It is a lot enjoyable! The textual content is repeated on a number of slides however every slide has increasingly 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 certainly one of my favorite Carnaval songs –
Salut, Bonhomme! Then I take out
des cuillères and educate them a easy folkloric rhythm that they will use with their arms or to check out once I hand out
my wood spoons.
