Culminating Project for Junior Students...(writing & speaking)

This culminating writing/speaking task goes well at the end of grade 4 or 5 when they have already learned a bit about masculine/feminin agreement (adjectives, colours…). It goes well after the junior adjectives unit.  

It would also go well after the corps/sports unit.

- Students will fill out a planner sheet for the writing portion, which they will edit and transfer onto a lunch sized paper bag, & add drawings to.

- then as a ‘show and tell’ they will plan to bring one item as a surprise that can fit in the bag, to talk about.  

- the last part of this project is a speaking presentation, where they read their paper bag about ‘all about me’, and show & talk about their object from the bag 

Included:

• Teacher Overview Slides (editable)
• all PDFs for printing (draft, rubrics, mini-dictionary page with adjectives, family vocab., hobbies pets etc...)
• Instructions - for student draft page (photos of their page on slides)
• M/F agreement teaching slides (adjectives, colours, etc.)
• rubrics for writing & speaking sections (photos on these slides)
• how to use the mini-dictionary page for other vocabulary (w/ photos to show how to use)
• student examples - coming soon
• family poster
