Movie Talk: Un hombre triste se pone feliz – My generation of polyglots Movie talk on the fly Recently a teacher asked me to describe how I do movie talk with my classes. I believe that Movie talk is most effective when planned out so that target structures are recycled, but thinking about Krashen’s argument for non-targeted CI has led me to feel better about all of the Movie talks that I do on the fly. (1) Talking through the video When students came in today they saw the frame to the left. The first time through I stop it as often as possible, simply describing what we see. I rarely write anything on the board the first time through (unless a student explicitly asks); I want them to hear the language first. (2) Paired retells Earlier in the year I would not place a retell so early in a lesson so as not to intimidate students, but at this point in the year some of my students are demanding the opportunity to talk. (3) Personalization This is the most enjoyable part of the lesson. Like this: Like Loading...
10 idées écolos pour faire son sapin de Noël... sans sapin - WE DEMAIN Depuis que le prince Albert l’a importé de sa Saxe natale à la cour britannique, au XIXe siècle, la tradition du sapin de Noël est incontournable en Europe. Chaque année en France, il s’en vend quelque 7 millions d’exemplaires, dont 1 million de sapins artificiels. Si ces derniers ne nécessitent pas d’entretien, leur bilan écologique (production, transports…) est en revanche désastreux : comptez 48,3 kg de CO2 contre 3,1 kg pour un arbre naturel. À ce rythme, il faudrait en effet conserver son sapin en plastique plus de 15 ans pour amortir son bilan carbone… Or, les Français en changent en moyenne tous les trois ans. Non recyclables, les sapins artificiels contiennent aussi des matières nocives lorsque incinérées : plastique mélangé à de l’aluminium, flocages et même guirlandes électriques intégrées. Quiz carbone : sapin naturel ou sapin synthétique ? Certes, les sapins naturels sont cultivés de façon de plus en plus responsable et ne sont plus arrachés dans les forêts comme autrefois.
Teaching With a Mountain View: Topic Sentences I am so lucky to be working side-be-side with the creator of an incredible writing program this year! She and a former colleague (who I taught 3rd grade with) created the entire school-wide curriculum, and it is so cohesive! I'm LOVING it. I love having something that I can turn to and an excellent scope and sequence for writing. You can read more about the writing curriculum here. The four types of topic sentences we teach are If...Then, Even though, Since, and When. They each wrote in their notebook the four types of sentences (here is a picture of my teacher notebook that I projected on the board). Now, even though our overall topic was mountain biking, we had a discussion about what the specific topics that go with each of these topic sentences would be... The next day, we did an activity inspired by Stephanie at Teaching in Room 6. Since I didn't have the same cards she used (or anything like it), I quickly typed up eight paragraphs.

Todally Comprehensible Latin: CI Reading Strategies Reading in the target language can be divided into three phases: pre-reading, reading, and post-reading. Each of theses phases is important to contributing to student comprehension and literacy in the target language. Below is a list of reading stratgies which I have collected and written about on my blog (if there is not a link, it means that I plan to write about it). Why is reading important to language acquisition? According to Krashen: “Our reading ability, our ability to write in an acceptable writing style, our spelling ability, vocabulary knowledge, and our ability to handle complex syntax is the result of reading.” I always say that reading is where the magic happens in language acquisition! As Carol Gaab states, "The brain CRAVES novelty," so for one story, I may do 2-3 different activities for prereading, while I may do 5-6 different post-reading activties. PreReading (anything used to preview vocab/structures) - TPRS/Ask a Story - running dictatio - embedded writing
