Friday, October 7 marked the ACSI Teacher Conference 2022 in Surrey, British Columbia, Canada.
This was an opportunity for me to share with fellow educators the research I have been doing over the last 2.5 years as I have studied culture, identity, and language acquisition. The goals for the session were to share the researchers I have been reading, the theories that are being discussed in our field, and to give some examples of how we can incorporate these into our classrooms so that we can go beyond grammar and vocabulary to include the vast culture of the Francophone world, as well as prepare our students for a plurilingual and pluracultural world.
The 2022-2023 school year is just taking off! Lesson plans and unit goals to be uploaded in the coming months.
