We will be doing many creative art projects including clay, collage, drawing, painting, sculpture, photography and digital graphics. The teacher loves to read, learn new things, and spend time outdoors camping and with her family, including her dog Sadie.

Calendriers, miroirs du ciel et des cultures est un projet pédagogique conçu par La main à la pâte à l'occasion de l'année mondiale de l'astronomie.
A travers le thème fédérateur des calendriers, les élèves étudient la mesure du temps et son histoire dans les sociétés d’hier ou d’aujourd’hui. Qu’est-ce qu’une journée, une semaine, un mois, une année ? Comment ces unités de temps sont-elles construites dans les grandes civilisations et en quoi l’astronomie peut-elle nous aider à les comprendre ? Quels sont les mouvements de la Terre ou de la Lune, quelle est l’origine des saisons … sont autant de questions auxquelles les élèves se confrontent, tellement ancrées dans notre vie quotidienne que l’on oublie facilement toute leur richesse historique, scientifique, et culturelle.

This document outlines strategies for 90% target language use and culturally responsive teaching in world language classrooms. It discusses building relationships through authentic communication and setting the tone for target language use from day one. Culturally responsive teaching focuses on relationships, rigor defined as proficiency, relevance through meaningful themes and essential questions, and creating real and authentic experiences. The document provides examples for how to implement these strategies in the classroom.
This document discusses using folktales to teach language and culture. It proposes exploring how to create thematic units centered around folktales that teach language concepts while reinforcing cultural understanding. The presenter aims to provide strategies for novice teachers and learners to stay in the target language. Neuroscience research is discussed showing how stories activate more areas of the brain than plain facts alone. Various forms of assessment centered around folktales are proposed, including illustrating stories, acting out tales, discussing characters, and writing original legends.
This document discusses how words are comprised of sounds and contain meanings, as well as optional and required semantic and grammatical information. Words also relate to other words through co-location patterns.

Effective classroom management requires being proactive rather than reactive through establishing clear expectations, using a commanding teacher persona, seizing control on the first day of class, having a decisive yet compassionate voice, and building relationships with students. It also relies on developing a shared sense of responsibility, inviting student voice, and leveraging motivators like cultural imitation, goal setting, and grades to convince students to meet behavioral expectations.
The document discusses strategies for designing instruction to improve students' interpersonal communication skills for interacting with native speakers in real-time.

Sample unit essential questions, conversation goals, writing prompts, and input texts are provided as examples.
The document discusses strategies for helping students understand target languages without relying on English translations. It presents examples of using visuals and animations, designing scaffolded conversation experiences, implementing micro-practice and short-practice sessions, using body language and checking for understanding, empowering student-led construction of meaning, teaching clarification strategies, and using instruction time for scaffolded expression practice. Teachers are also encouraged to display high-frequency expressions and use communication breakdowns to identify needed vocabulary.
The document discusses strategies for increasing target language use in the classroom, including aiming for 90% or more instruction in the target language, changing student beliefs about their ability to understand and speak the language, planning opportunities for target language use, and holding all students accountable for using the target language.
