I want my students to enjoy learning a new language. I bring in the Arts to help my classroom come alive such as playing guitar to help them learn and retain new vocabulary or using puppets to help students gain confidence in speaking. I use recording apps like iMovie and Clips so that students have a record of their learning that they can share with their families.
My favourite app is Seesaw because it allows me to share my students' progress with their families in a digital portfolio.

The expectations for social studies are organized into the following two strands:
A. Heritage and Identity: In this strand, students are provided with opportunities to explore various topics that will enable them to develop an understanding of the connections between the past and present; of interactions within and between diverse communities, including students’ own communities; and of the rights and responsibilities associated with citizenship. Students will develop an understanding of personal, cultural, and national identities, both past and present, and of contributions to Canadian heritage.
B. People and Environments: This strand focuses on natural and built environments and the connections between the two. Students explore geographic, social, political, economic, and environmental issues in the context of local, regional, national, and global communities, and they develop an understanding of the social and environmental responsibilities of citizens and of various levels of government.
French Language Arts: Listening and speaking are the springboard to reading and writing. While the curriculum strikes a balance between these four distinct but interconnected skills, oral communication -listening and speaking- is paramount for second language acquisition.
