SCHEME OF WORK Intercultural Understanding ?
19
SCHEME OF WORK Intercultural Understanding Develop a greater U of their own lives in the context of exploring others Learn to look at things from another perspective, giving insight regarding – people, lives and traditions of other cultures Learn about the different languages spoken by children in school
20
Discuss simple ways of developing IU…
21
Examples - everyday Register Bonjour madame / mademoiselle / monsieur –Early Start - video présent/présente / absent/absente Saying today’s date - display « Happy Birthday »Joyeux anniversaire
22
Examples Before/After the holidays –Ask the children to bring back photos, postcards, souvenirs to share when they come back: what did they hear /see /eat /smell /touch? A display A speech to pair/class/assembly
23
Examples - greetings The children to find out some of the many greetings in other languages. The children share any additional greetings they have learnt during the summer. To make a “Welcome Poster”. Revisit the NASA Voyager website which gives soundfiles of greetings in 55 languages. Allow the children to say which languages they would like to hear, and to try and mimic some of the phrases.NASA Voyager website
24
Examples - languages Ask the children what they already know about the languages spoken in our country. Revisit the BBC Languages Across Europe website and click on United Kingdom. Discover how many languages are spoken in the UK, and why. By clicking on the hyperlinks you can find out more about the languages spoken in the UK, and even listen to samples of some of them.BBC Languages Across EuropeUnited Kingdom Explore and discuss what the children know about the languages spoken in different European countries. BBC Languages Across Europe lists the countries together with the languages spoken in each of them.BBC Languages Across Europe
25
Examples - geography Using maps, allow the children to see the UK in relation to France. Can the children name any of the other countries near to the UK? What do they already know? Google UK map gives an easy-to-read map that can be moved with the mouse.Google UK map Europe: how many countries can they remember?
26
Examples – partner school Could the children choose a charity to raise funds for, in order to focus their thoughts on less fortunate children across the world, as the festive season approaches? One possibility would be a sponsored event, which could involve learning French spellings for a Spelling Bee, singing a French song, reciting some finger rhymes, or putting on a French performance and asking for donations. Might this fund-raising activity be undertaken jointly with a partner class abroad, with whom the children regularly video-conference?
27
Examples – festivals and celebrations Children consider the festival of Christmas, as well as other festivals celebrated amongst different cultures in the UK at this time of year. The BBC has information about the festivals of Christmas, Diwali, Eid, Ramadan, Hanukkah; also the Ten Ages of Christmas, Why Christmas?, Christmas Carols, The Christmas PagesChristmasDiwali EidRamadanHanukkahTen Ages of ChristmasWhy Christmas?Christmas CarolsThe Christmas Pages Allow the children to investigate once again what happens by way of celebration in some parts of Europe on 6 December (Saint Nicolas). The children work together to produce a multilingual happy birthday banner. Each child is given a pennant-shaped flag and must decorate it and write “Happy birthday” in a different language. Phrases in a wide choice of languages can be found at http://www.shabbir.com/romance/bday.html
