Le meilleur jour de congé de ma vie.
Rather than do the usual pupil to teacher speaking assessment I asked you to prepare a presentation on the theme of "Le meilleur jour de congé de ma vie". You could present it in pairs or on your own and it could take any format; powerpoint, film, poem, song etc. I asked for 5 basic questions to be answered:
- where they went
- who they went with
- how they got there
- what it was like
- what they did
I also gave three stipulations:
- excellent french
- imaginative and visual
- broadcast quality
Here are the results. Have a listen to the recordings and look at the files of one or two of your mates and write a comment. How well were the five questions answered? How far were the 3 stipulations met. REMEMBER LEAVE 2 POSITIVE COMMENTS AND ONE CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM. LEAVE YOUR FIRST NAME ONLY AND NO EMAIL ADDRESSES.

Check out Catriona's slideshow...sorry Mhairi
PS Just thought I should add a general comment on all your work. I have been very impressed with the effort and imagination that has gone into your presentations. I have particularly enjoyed looking at your powerpoints, videos and slideshows. And the standard of some of your French was outstanding. One slight gripe however would be that some of you have spent a little more time on the visual aspects of your presentations to the detriment of your french at times...BUT on the whole well done.
good presantation fee n rhea

I thought that David's presentation was imaginative and the french was easy to understand but your voice wasn't clear.

I am a French native speaker and teach MFL in England. I am so impressed by your teacher's idea and your work! Well done to you all! Hope to see even more of this. You have already inspired me so much. I hope I can do something similar with my year 8 although not to the same standard. I have to be realistic :-)
Thank you guys!
