Genetics: Option C from "Science and technologie"

If you are teaching or thinking of teaching the option "science and technologies" (C) at IB level French B, here is a very interesting article from the newspaper Le Monde.

 Apparently, not everybody would come from the "Homo Sapiens". That is a fantastic opportunity for debates and cross-curricula activities...

It might be a little late, but better late than never. Here is the document that I have created from different sources. Therefore, the Word document is not very accurate. However, it was still a nice song for my Chinese club to celebrate Christmas in a different language.



Here is a previous link to reward student of their good behaviour and discuss the cultural differences between France and the United Kingdom. I have been using it for a whole week now and students keep asking: "Miss, how come more than 19 000 000 of people have watched this video?" I suppose they like French? Or animals?



Hi there,

When I come back to France, I tend to take some photos of everything. Here are some, which are quite nice when it comes to talk about colours, prices and obviously food and supermarkets. Do you know the name of all these vegetables ?

Calligraphy

你好,
Writing Chinese is really fun, especially when it involves ink and brushes. Students seemed to have a good time. Faces have been anonymised.

The girls have really paid attention to details.

Student had produced a page of writing, but they had forgotten to write their name... 

Proud of their work!

What a concentration!

Expressions - l'argent

Hi there,

Happy New Year !!!
To start the year, here is a nice powerpoint, which I have not created myself. It is fantastic for a lesson on expressions.
