Lesson Plan:
Project Description:
Students will watch a video about the history of vaccination. Questions have been inserted into the video thanks to EdPuzzle. The clip pauses each time a question pops up to give time to students to write their answers. After that, students discuss their answers in pairs or in small groups, then as a whole class. Following these activities, students will analyze a newspaper article containing the COVID-19 vaccination rate of countries around the world. Discussion will follow. Students will pick a francophone country and will be guided to create their own vaccination awareness campaign clip for that specific country and present it to the whole class.
Students will work on the following ACTFL communication modes:
Interpersonal, interpretive, and presentational
Students will work on the following language skills:
