| Title | Holiday card-making activity |
| Body | At this time of year, many teachers may be looking for activities which focus on the culture of the target language. The following suggestion was recently posted on the FLTEACH listserv. ----- I am currently a student teacher and my cooperating teacher had the idea of having our students make Thanksgiving cards incorporating symbols of Thanksgiving and symbols of France. The students are then to label the pictures that they have used. We did a similar project for Halloween and the results were wonderful. The students really got into the project and were very proud of their work. The Halloween cards are still decorating the classroom. Just a suggestion for a fun way to celebrate the holidays by giving the kids a creative way to use language. I really liked the idea posted about having students make cards to give to other people at the school, faculty, etc. Did they make the cards in the target language? That would be a great project for an ESL class. Easterling, C. Thanksgiving - Making cards. Foreign Language Teaching Forum listserv. FLTEACH@LISTSERV.BUFFALO.EDU (22 Nov. 2004). |
