February/March Show & Tell:

A Canadian Community

Our next focus will be on the many diverse communities in Canada! Each student will choose a community in Canada to research at home. The information will be shared with the class so that we can build our communal knowledge of Canada and appreciate its diversity. Show and Tell is also an opportunity to develop French speaking skills.

Step 1:

Choose a community outside of B.C. but in Canada. Locate it on a map of Canada. Say the name of the community and its province or territory in French. (We have learned them).

Step 2:

Find out some interesting facts about the community. (Culture, landscape, activities).

Share a few sentences with us.

Step 3:

Bring in an image that represents the community. For example:

-a photo

-a postcard

-a drawing

Write the name of the community on or beside the image.

If a student wishes to also bring in an object or souvenir, visual aids are welcome!

 

We would love to borrow the image so that we can create a bulletin board with images across Canada. Keep your image postcard-sized or smaller if possible please so that we can fit 19 of them on our wall! Thanks.

 

It is nice to have a variety of communities: capital cities, small towns, Indigenous communities, tourist destinations and faraway communities where your relatives may live!

 

Please share your first and second choice with Madame so that we can avoid repetition AND learn about communities in all of our provinces and territories
