Middle School Science Interactive Whiteboard

This newly updated *94 page* unit will cover you for roughly 7-9 Core French 1-hour classes and features a teachable slide deck, worksheets, lesson plans, rubrics, success criteria, a word wall, a phrase wall and numerous suggestions to get your kids having fun, moving, interacting and legitimately enjoying French class with you. The entirety (or parts of) the unit can easily be left with a substitute teacher and you need a quick lesson plan. It's ALL here!

As with all of my Core French products, this one is geared toward a LOW-LEVEL middle-school classroom (grades 3-7). It's high-energy, interactive, highly engaging and requires no prep. It ties in to some science concepts for grades 5 & 6 on biodiversity and adaptations. It features a significant amount of game-based learning and some project-based learning

There are three longer projects included with this unit: "Mon drôle d'animal" which has them building a silly animal and describing its body parts and details; "Mon animal perdu," a poster project which has them creating a poster for their missing pet, and "Une interview à la radio" which has them writing a radio script to find their lost pet with a partner.

Included in this bundle:

• Warm-Ups: A collection of 11 worksheets, suggested lessons and activities, and games to support very low-level students who do not yet have basic vocabulary for colors, animals, etc., to get them up to snuff before jumping into the unit.

• "Les couleurs" - A personal picture dictionary for students to use throughout the unit.

Each day students have activities, games, worksheets, and projects to work on independently, in partners and in groups.

• Slide Deck: 38 pages of highly engaging, game-based learning, that's interactive for you to click and go. In your Slide Deck, you'll find:

• "Qui suis-je?" - Two animal riddles as models for a riddle-creating activity outlined in your lesson plan. Students see, hear and use descriptive language.

• "Le projet final" - Your final project build-up has two slides which I use as messages du jour to explain their poster project, and two slides which highlight the expectations.

• "Headbandz" - A final fun group game for your students to use descriptive language, with vocabulary prompts, to explain an animal.

• "Une interview à la radio" - A partner skit-writing activity where they'll take turns pretending to be the "animateur" and the "invité" and either record their radio interview, present it to the class, present it to you, or use other means like FlipGrid (if your board allows it) to show you their learnings.

• "Mon animal perdu" - A formal rubric which focuses on their ability to meet the checklist criteria, to be creative, or to be effective communicators in the radio interview.
