French Jour du Souvenir Activity Pack:

Fun and engaging activity sheets to reinforce and explore French Phonics SOUNDS in the Kindergarten to Grade 3 French Immersion classroom. Students will love the intriguing graphics and have fun finding the target sounds, searching for Remembrance Day vocabulary, and building encoding and decoding skills with each activity. This activity aligns with the Science of Reading and blends well with all French programs across Canada and around the globe where French is being taught. Perfectly suits Son-au-graphe, Bien Lire, Aimer Lire, CBE French program, and Pratique Phonémique (all resources currently being used in Canadian French Immersion schools). Explore beginning phonics concepts with your students as they engage in fun and exciting Jour du Souvenir themed activities.

How to prepare this resource:

Prep for this activity DOES INCLUDE SOME TIME ON YOUR PART! Make a copy of each page, insert into clear pocket, dry erase pocket, or use as individual worksheets and watch as the giggles get started. My students LOVE these activities. I cannot make them fast enough.

Detailed instructions for each activity are set out at the top of each activity and could not be easier.

There is a little cutting and laminating involved with some activities but many use clear folders to make your job easier!

Perfect for a sub binder, emergency plans, or as a back up activity when you happen to have a few minutes to spare. A great set to have on hand as an extra centre activity at Remembrance Day/Veteran's Day time. Your K-3 Immersion students will love them!

When to use this resource in the classroom:

These activity sheets are Jour du Souvenir themed and can be used for the entire month of November and even into the week following Halloween. Students love using them and they can be helpful for follow-up assessment.

I hope your students enjoy learning their vowel sounds and exploring phonemic awareness with a Remembrance Day Theme!

This has been a fun way for students to review their letters. I love that each page gives students an opportunity to write the letter, find the letter and find the sounds. Merci!

I feel confident that students from Kindergarten to Grade Three will find these most useful and teachers can come back to the texts with any students who may be experiencing challenges in their French reading skills.

Nos Roles et Responsabilites French Immersion Ontario Grade 1 Social Studies

This fun and engaging activity packet is meant to supplement your studies of Heritage and Identity for French Immersion students in Ontario. The vibrant images and easy to use French language tags are great to get students talking in French. Open up with large group activities by placing each item on the Venn diagram and discuss the roles we have at home and at school and those we share in both locations.

Students can plot their data on a diagram, a table, or with tally marks to integrate a number of other subjects. No matter how you decide to use this resource, I'm sure your students will enjoy it!

What to do with this resource:

Teachers can print images in original size or make a large poster sized Venn Diagram to allow students the immersive experience of hands-on learning too.

Watch as students identify their roles and responsibilities and grow in their understanding of how they fit into the world. How do our roles evolve over time? How do they change based on where we are? How can we show respect in all our actions and decisions?

What kind of activities can I do:

Students now have access to matching picture and word cards, flashcards, and tables to categorize and organize their ideas.

There are a variety of ways to use this resource to accompany your studies of Our Changing Roles and Responsibilities in the French Immersion Grade One classroom.

How to use this resource:

You could copy and laminate the pages for use as a learning centre or use the Venn diagram as a large poster by printing at 300% and using it as a whole group activity.

Activity cards include:

-faire la vaisselle

-nettoyer la table

-mettre la table

-faire le lavage

Students can take turns coming up to the front of the class to place cards on the Venn Diagram to denote activities that happen at home, at school, or both at home and at school.
