French 7 & 8
Each class today discussed the strategies for reading French and the list they made included:- looking for words you already know (ex: bonjour = hello)
- looking for cognates or mots amis, words that sound similar to English (ex: danse = dance)
- looking at the pictures
- making connections to what you know about the topic
- seeing if what you read makes sense
- using a dictionary to look up words that you don't know
L'Histoire de Phyllis
The class discussed residential schools and then watched the following videos before writing a message to residential school survivors.
ELA 9A & 9B
The students read for 10 minutes and then did two assignments on Google Classroom. Firstly, they entered their reading data for the last three weeks. Secondly, they did an assignment for Orange Shirt Day, which required reading the story "Moose." Students who were absent can do both assignments on-line and turn them in on Google Classroom.
Have a great weekend!
What an awesome way to implement Orange Shirt Day into your French classes! I love the writing pieces that you did to residential school survivors.
