End of the skit of last week. “J’aime pas les filles”
“Le croissant du trottoir”
How did you pick this theme or topic?
We needed to follow up on last week’s activity.
“le croissant du trottoir” is a very cute text. It is a good reading exercice, and then they talk about their personal experience.
How did you present the material? (Handouts, group work, general discussion, student presentations, etc.)
I asked them about the list of things that the comedian does not like about boys, then I asked them to imagine what she could reproach women for doing.
We checked by watching the video.
Text: I gave them the text, introduced it. ( author, entire book, because this text is one of more than 30) Then they read it and ask for the words they did not know. I asked them a few questions like: what is the tense most used in the text? Why? What is the personal pronoun most used? Why?…
Then I asked them if like the author, they feel the same kind of feelings sometimes, and when.
How did students react?
The skit was fun to watch and talk about but a little hard again.
They liked the text, especially when they could share their personal experience. It was really cute.
Did they engage with each other and you?
Yes
What materials or media did you use? (articles, satellite tv, digital projector, etc.)
Handouts, youtube
