A network for all who teach languages to children
The above clip is from 'La Marseillaise' by Jean Renoir and can be downloaded from YouTube to use as you wish. Another gem I've discovered this year is useful for colleagues who are trying to brush up their own language skills - it's a free unit from the Open University French course'Ouverture' which has lots of background in English as well as a few key phrases in French about the Fete Nationale and the storming of the Bastille.
Then there is this online unit for students from NgFL Cymru http://www.ngfl-cymru.org.uk/vtc/ngfl/french/bastille_day/la_fete_n...
For practical classroom activities, including the wonderful ppt's and IWB resources uploaded by members of Talkabout in the last couple of years to celebrate and learn about the festival with your classes, here is the link:
