Instructional Session 6
Objective: By the end of class, you will be able to… (NOTE: The example objectives and lesson are given in French; they can be used with any language. You can download materials in multiple languages from our Teachers Pay Teachers store (CI Liftoff), or use the examples to make your own materials.
Beginner: say words or phrases in French to describe places that people in our class like, using sensory details (e.g. describing the weather - what you can see, hear, feel - hot, cold, sunny, rainy, etc.) Intermediate: say two or more sentences in French to describe places that people in our class like, using sensory details (e.g. describing the weather - what you can see, hear, feel - hot, cold, sunny, rainy, etc.) Advanced: say a paragraph in French to describe places that people in our class like, using sensory details (e.g. describing the weather - what you can see, hear, feel - hot, cold, sunny, rainy, etc.) and compare them to places in the francophone world
Preparation Prepare a series of images for the Visual Survey. This is basically a series of images about a topic, which you will describe/discuss, and then a “voting slide” which shows all four of the images so that students can vote on their favorite. You can also download pre-made Visual Surveys from our Teachers Pay Teachers store (CI Liftoff). Generally, I find that either four or eight images is the best number. That way, I can make a series of four images, and then a voting slide, as shown below. If I have eight images, then I would have two sets of four images and two separate voting slides. Sometimes I like to do a “runoff vote” between the winner of the first voting slide and the winner from the second one, to find the class’s “ultimate” favorite image.
