Qu’est-ce que c’est qu’un monstre?
This workshop will outline how to adapt the Monster Unit from our old program to better suit CEFR “l’approche actionnelle” and the revised curriculum with an emphasis on oral interaction and integrating language structures in a practical, fun way.

l’approche actionnelle
Action-oriented and communicative approaches to teaching FSL focus on meaning over form; emphasize meaningful interactive activities; centre on communicative language needs; and, when possible, highlight authentic tasks within the context of a classroom environment. While the communicative approach centres on communicating in the target language, the action-oriented approach requires students to perform a task in a wider social context. (pg. 31 Ontario Min. of Ed. FSL revised curriculum, elementary, 2013)
Vision and Goals for French as a Second Language Core, Extended, and Immersion, Grades 1 to 12(Ontario Min. of Ed. FSL revised curriculum, elementary, 2013)
Vision
Students will communicate and interact with growing confidence in French, one of Canada’s official languages, while developing the knowledge, skills, and perspectives they need to participate fully as citizens in Canada and in the world
Goals
In all French as a second language programs, students realize the vision of the FSL curriculum as they strive to: Use French to
communicate and interact effectively in a variety of social settings
Appreciate and acknowledge the interconnectedness and interdependence of the global community
Life-long language learning
One of the 7 enduring ideas of revised FSL curriculum:Authentic Oral Communication: Reception, Production, and Interaction
(pg.10 Ontario Min. of Ed. FSL revised curriculum, elementary, 2013)
La lecture (la Compréhension écrite)
Sans Frontières: Les Monstres à travers les siècles - photocopied - pre-reading discussion, then used 3 colours of highlighters - one for words that resemble English, one for words that you already know in French, and the third for words that you will need to look up in dictionary.
Checked dictionary words (wrote definitions on side of page), then read in groups and answered questions orally.
Talked briefly about how monsters reflect the fears of society.

Made poster on ledger paper then presented it to the class.

reference handout - vocabulary useful in talking about monsters, and then did introductions of monster to group - like at a party introducing a new person. Practiced over a couple of days in different ways – i.e. with partner, with small group, inner/outer circle, then did formative assessment with feedback.

Monster films for FSF 1DShrek
Monsters Inc.Godzilla
King Kong
Le Bossu de Notre-Dame (Est-ce que Quasimodo est un monstre? Qui sont les
"monstres" de cette histoire?)
(Twilight)
…Etc…
Additional ideas proposed during the workshop on March 29, 2014 Students make short trailer (about one minute) for
a monster film (own ideas or adaptation of a real film) then take on roles of director, lead actors, etc. Do a “red carpet walk” with interviews by the media. Can research real Canadian directors and actors for this. Scaffolding required.
Reading: find film critiques on-line in French. Read for comprehension and also can use in a group speaking activity to decide what film they would like to see. Add constraints such as the rating and preferences to make the task more “l’approche actionnelle”
