| Ashton is trying to find the best background for his book |
Every Friday the students are working on their French project. Each team is assigned a francophone cultural event or festival in Canada.
 |
| Seoha and Anya deep in research |
 |
Abby is reading information about Winterlude in Ottawa
|
 |
| Emma and Evan are done with the 'table des matières'... |
 |
| ...and Mme Tedesco is checking it for them. |
 |
This page is almost done!
|
The students' level of French is not high enough to be able to conduct the research in French (it's a core French class after all!), therefore they are reading the information in English. They are using a template to enter the information about each festival, which they are typing into the Book Creator pages they had created.
 |
| Spelling is challenging, since the spell check function is set for English. |
 |
They are using online and traditional dictionaries.
|
It's great to see their enthusiasm and creativity. And I learnt something new: one of them showed me how to find the French accents on the iPad's keyboard: you hold the key of the closest vowel, then carefully slide your fingertip onto the right letter that shows up. I didn't know that!
