<p>Ever wondered what French people eat for Christmas, New Year’s, Mardi Gras or Easter?<br /> This PowerPoint will help you introduce all this delicious food to your students.</p> <p>The presentation is interactive, mostly in French with some cultural information provided in English. You can add questions, ask students to make notes, use mini white boards to get students to answer additional questions on their own or in groups.</p> <p>It is accompanied by a worksheet (+ an answer sheet for the teacher) which will allow students to review their learning by completing a match up task and a choice of 2 differentiated translation tasks taken from Studio Higher GCSE French Module 3.2 (page 58-59).</p>

<p>Holidays can be a difficult topic to teach in MFL because many of our students do not get the chance to travel. These students often feel embarassment and shame because they cannot relate to their peers’ travel stories and may struggle constructing a made-up narrative about something they have not experienced. Furthermore, travelling is very often discussed with no consideration for people who face further difficulties when travelling (people of colour, solo female travellers, people with disabilities, poor people). With this worksheet, you will be removing the focus from your students to enter the world of two great 21st century travellers.</p> <p>In this FRENCH-language worksheet, students will learn about the experiences of Jessica Nabongo, one of the first black women to have travelled to every country in the world, and about Corey Lee, a man who travelled to over 30 countries as a wheelchair user and who often shares his experience of accessible travel.</p> <p>Students will get to practice recognising the perfect tense in French while learning advanced holiday vocabulary (whale watching, hot air balloon riding and more) and finally, completing a translation from French into English.</p> <p>This lesson needs to follow the introduction of basic holiday vocabulary, of the perfect tense and needs to come before tense practice. It is differentiated with two levels, challenges and vocabulary support available. It is suitable for students at KS3 and KS4 regardless of the exam board.</p>
