This French booklet is all about the Nutcracker- from the story to Tchaikovsky, to the ballet. This integrated unit is a cross-curricular one because it ties together French reading comprehension expectations with music and dance. It is the perfect booklet for the month of December or for any time when teachers are doing a dance or music unit (dances and music from various periods). Sections of this booklet include: an introduction to the Nutcracker the history of ballet The King of the Mice Tchaikovsky An exploration of key musical pieces in the ballet the Nutcracker in Canada List of characters and their descriptions (activity) Quiz with answers. In my grade 6 MFI French Immersion class (Ontario), I have divided students in groups. Each group got a section of the booklet and they had to read, answer the questions, research for more information and present. I have done this booklet in conjunction with my Fairy Tale project.

This resource is geared towards junior students in the French Immersion program. In this resource, I have discussed harvest festivals in general, I have alluded to link some aspects of this to Canadian symbols, human interactions in the world, parliament, and immigration. I have also sought out to show that there are more similarities than differences in these celebrations and among humanity as a whole. This booklet discusses Thanksgiving in Canada, the Harvest Festival in Britain, the Yur’ya feast that is celebrated in a small area of southern Belarus, Chuseok in Korea, and Vaisakhi among the Sikh community. Each text comes with some comprehension questions. I have added a reflection and a drama extension at the end. In my classroom, I normally read the text on Thanksgiving in Canada as a whole class, then I assign students in groups and they work on the rest of the texts along with the comprehension questions in groups. The reflection is normally done independently and then the extension can be used as a quick drama mark for the progress report.

Here are 28 pages on Halloween that are suited particularly for Junior-Intermediate French Immersion grades. This is not a “baby” unit on Halloween. In this booklet you will find the history of Halloween, the history of Halloween in Canada, black cats, Tick or Treating, Links to Commerce and Government, The Legend of the Jack O’ Lantern, and cross-cultural information on other festivals of the dead. Since I don’t believe in doing things simply because they are fun, I really wanted to link this booklet specifically to the Social Studies curriculum. In this booklet I have incorporated links to Ancient Civilizations, Medieval Times, Government, Immigration, Communities in Canada, Legends, Commerce, Human Rights issues at the international level, and cultural awareness. I have also incorporated technology in one of the text’s comprehension questions. When using this booklet with my class, I also do vocabulary studies and I normally do Halloween at about the time when I do synonyms in French.

Here is my tried and tested Grade 6 French Immersion unit on flight. This ready-to-use unit includes a historical overview on flight, the theoretical aspects of flight, comprehension questions, reflection questions and research questions. I have included two research tasks that I get students to do (rubrics and checklists included), I have also included weekly homework questions. This unit is also sensitive to other cultures as I have tried to include historic figures from different cultures and times in my historical overview of flight. Overall, my students have greatly enjoyed this unit. I end this unit with a culminating project on flight that is also available at my TPT store.

Here is my grade 6 ready to print science unit on Electricity. I have just completed this package with my grade 6 MFI classes and we had a lot of fun. This package is mostly theoretical. I use it to supplement our classroom experiments and I also use it to give students opportunities to further research topics in electricity. Overall, here are some of the topics that I have covered: atoms, what is electricity, circuits in series and in parallel, batteries, electromagnetism, a historic overview of electricity, the generation of electricity, and three tasks at the end accompanied with a common rubric. Suitable for EFI and MFI.

Here is my comprehensive unit on Communities in Canada Past in Present for Grade 6.

This is an integrated French project for Junior and Intermediate grades (Grades 5 to 8). In this project, students will first analyze some of the elements of a comic strip and will then create their own comic strip. As they are creating their comic strips, students will have the opportunity to create their own super-hero. They will brainstorm characteristics of their super-hero and they will come up with a setting, a plot, and a villain for their comic. I have integrated Growth Mindset in this since students will have to demonstrate how their hero shows Growth Mindset. This project comes with a preliminary activity in which students will have to discover the elements of a Comic simply by looking through some, a vocabulary sheet, guiding questions, and a rubric. Comics are to be mainly written in the présent de l’indicatif. I recommend reviewing the présent de l’indicatif prior to starting this project.

Here is my comprehensive Grade 6 Biodiversity unit. In it I go into the theory relating to biodiversity and the classification of living things. Students have comprehension questions that go with each section. They have the opportunity to use technology to further their research with my reflective questions. I have included 2 activities with rubrics and other mini-activities. The unit culminates with getting the students to write a letter to their MP regarding a pressing environmental issue of their choice.

Here is a drama project that I have done with my classes. I have started at the beginning of cinematography with silent theatre. During the course of this project students will have the opportunity to learn more about the era of silent theatre. They will learn about Charlie Chaplin, compare two films (one from 1903 and another from 1917) with each other and with modern day cinema. Students will also have the opportunity to create their own silent movie and will be required to adhere according to certain guidelines (found in the guiding questions that will structure their entire project). A rubric is included in this package.

A tried and tested project for the flight unit. This project is designed to allow students to familiarize themselves with a pioneer in aviation. Students have a list of aviation pioneers that they can choose from and they are provided with guided/reflection questions that they can use to guide their research. I have incorporated “Growth Mindset” into this project since students will have to demonstrate/infer how their pioneer in aviation has demonstrated a Growth Mindset. A rubric and a step-by-step bibliography page is also provided to help students better refine their research skills. At the end of this project I get students to present. I am always surprised by how well their presentations go and how complete their projects are.

I have created this booklet with inclusivity in mind. Given that not all students celebrate Christmas in December, I thought that this booklet would be fun and educational for all students coming from a variety of different backgrounds. In this booklet I have included St-Nicholas and Krampusnacht, Hanukka, St-Lucia, Boxing Day, Kwanza, Omisoka and Eid Al-Fitr. This resource is great for shared-reading activities or for centres. It is very versatile because you can easily adapt it to your classroom needs. It is also great for when you have a supply teacher. This resource is recommended for Junior/intermediate French Immersion. It could also work for senior depending on the classes’ French levels. I have personally designed this resource with a Grade 5/6 classroom in mind. I have linked aspects of community and identity in the grade 6 Social Studies curriculum as well as government in the Grade 5 Social Studies curriculum. Students therefore not only have the opportunity to read about a variety of different celebrations celebrated in December (that are not Christmas), but they also have the opportunity to research a variety of aspects of these celebrations and communities that these celebrations occur in. Since the booklet is quite lengthy, I normally divide my students up in groups during the second week of December and I assign a reading + comprehension and research questions to each group. I then get each groups to present the celebration to the class and I collect their section of the booklet.

This creation is an integrated French, Drama, and visual arts projects. For teachers only teaching one of each (ex. drama or visual arts), I have included three separate rubrics in the package to make it easier to share rubrics with other teaching partners who may share the class with you. In this project package, students learn more about ancient Greek theatre as well as theatre coming from different cultures. Once completing the preliminary research, they are to find a cultural legend and make that legend come to life by creating a script for the legend, putting together props and creating masks for the different characters that they will transition into (just like the Ancient Greeks once did). Students work in groups of 2 to 3 so that they can play the roles of at least two characters. This project may be adapted to give a FNMI perspective by having students select an FNMI legend. It can also have an Ancient civilizations perspective by having students select and work with legends coming out of antiquity. The arts component of creating masks gives the project a creative dimension which students often enjoy. It also allows the shyer students to participate more actively since they are able to present from behind a mask.

Here is my grammar package for my French Immersion and stronger Core French students. In this package, you will find complete and concise information, appropriately broken down for your students. I have included not only grammatical explanations in a language format that makes it easier for students to understand, but I have also included grammar exercises and quizzes for each section of the package. At the end of the package, there is also a unit test and I have included an answer key. This package is great for homework and also for the first 20 minutes of the French period. I use this package to provide my students with grammatical awareness before moving on to a more integrated approach to teaching language. I have also given this package for students who are going to be away on vacation and have used it as a back-up when I have a supply teacher.
