French 3: Monday October 29 2012 Lesson Plan

DUE: Continue Musician Presentations!
  • students pick a French/francophone musician from those featured on the the liste des artistes d'RFI Musique.
  • Students have entered their names and their chosen musician on the French Shared Google Doc.
  • For Wednesday, October 24, each student/pair prepares a seven- to ten-minute presentation on his/her/their chosen artist.
  • Students should speak for at least five minutes of the presentation.
  • If working in a pair, one student must speak exclusively in French, while the other offers English translation.
  • Presentation should include slides with French text only.
  • Presentation should include at least one classroom-appropriate musical clip of the artist (video or audio).
  • Voici la partie difficile: Students may use notes written in French. (In other words, you get no script for your English translation.)
[90 minutes] Students present!
