Using images of different characters from movies, I will introduce the new vocabulary. I will describe each person s physical characteristics and juxtapose the vocabulary words that change with the gender. As I do this I will ask questions in order to check for comprehension. 2. Still using the images and characters posted, I will describe each person s hair color and style. I will then again ask questions, tying in physical descriptions. As I do this I will be sure to add in connectors and use très. 3. After sufficient questioning, I will then ask the students to draw conclusions about the vocabulary and how it changes when used to describe a male or female. I will draw attention to the irregularities in the adjectives as well. Input Activity 1: Bienvenue chez les Robinson! 1. I will pass out the activity sheets. Students will be asked to look at the image of the Robinson family and read the descriptions below. 2. They must then correctly identify and label the person. (There will be several destracters.) 3. I will then ask for volunteers to come up and label the image. Input Activity 2: Mes personnages favoris. 1. Students must look at the images on the overhead and listen as I describe 5 different people. 2. They will then write the letter that corresponds with that person in the blanks provided. (There will be several distracters.) 3. The class will review the correct answers together. Because they are all women, the students do not have to attend to the endings. HOWEVER there are several distracters, requiring them to pay close attention to the hair colors and styles.
