Title | French Unit: Provence |
Body | Question about creating a unit on Provence: I am interested in creating a unit for my level III French students about Provence. I would like to incorporate music, food, literature, art, geography, etc, but I don't want to have one group study only one aspect of the region-- they'll all fight over who gets to study food!!! I am trying to figure out how to make the unit student-centered without having my students do another travel brochure or plan a trip. Starmer, J. (1May 2004). provence/region unit. Foreign Language Teaching Forum listserv. FLTEACH@LISTSERV.BUFFALO.EDU (20 May 2004). Reply: I recently worked on a unit on Provence with my student teacher. Students did an Internet search/questionnaire to get an overview of the region. We also read and watched excerpts from A Year in Provence by Peter Mayle. We prepared a slide show w/ vocabulary and pictures of regional specialties and products, impressionist paintings of the region, and scenery. A postcard project fits in nicely with a unit such as this. Also, at the end, we tasted a variety of flavored olive oils. I thought the students (Level II) would be put off by all the garlic and herbs, but it was a big hit. Conover, K. (5 May 2004). Re: provence/region unit. Foreign Language Teaching Forum listserv.
