Introduction
How would you describe "Une journée typique", "Une semaine typique" or even "L'Education" at Adelaide High School.

Below are 3 different assignment topics which ask you to look at and discuss student life at Adelaide High School.

Tache

  1. Assignments 1 and 2 - "Une journée typique" or "Une semaine typique" at Adelaide High.
    You are to design an A3 poster which PICTORIALLY (diagrams, charts, graphs, pictures) describes either a typical day or week of a student at Adelaide High School. You SHOULD NOT have great slabs of writing but should include about 7-10 sentences IN FRENCH at the bottom of your poster which describe the diagrams, charts, graphs and pictures you have used .
  2. Assignment 3 - L'Education à Adelaide High
    This assignment asks you to write an instruction book IN FRENCH about Year 8 at Adelaide High School. The book should illustrate both PICTORIALLY AND IN WRITING the following information:
  • a welcome to Adelaide High School
  • how many subjects you study at a time and per year
  • which subjects you study for a term
  • which subjects you study for a semester
  • which subjects you study for a full year
  • how many lessons you have per day
  • other things you do during the day and for how long (home group, lunch, recess)
  • what stationery you have to buy at the beginning of the year
  • the fact that you have to wear a uniform

    Like assignments one and 2 it SHOULD NOT have great slabs of writing but should include about 7-10 sentences IN FRENCH which describe the diagrams, charts, graphs and pictures you have used .

Méthode
    1. Plan which assignment you will undertake. Consider which diagrams, charts and graphs you will include and what photos you will need to take.
    2. You will have access to digital cameras to take any pictures you may require.
    3. If you are doing Assignments 1 or 2, on A3 paper design your pictorial description, leaving room at the bottom for your sentences. If you are doing Assignment 3, decide on the size of your book and design how you are going to lay out each page and where you will place the written information.
    4. Make sure you do drafts of your sentences. Use brief, simple French sentences using the vocab you know and what is included on the vocab sheet. You should aim for about 7-10 sentences. Ensure you get your work checked.
Evaluation
You will be assessed on:
    • attractiveness of the poster or book
    • effectiveness - is the work an effective study guide on life at Adelaide High School
    • creativity - effort put into designing the poster or book
    • required elements - charts, diagrams, pictures, 7-10 sentences in French using supplied vocab
    • mechanics - spelling, punctuation, grammar
