A French resource designed for home learning aimed at KS3 students to explore feelings about racism in a very simple way. Includes colour revision, a read through of the Jerome Ruillier ‘Homme de Couleur’ plus a final activity I intended to pull together for a display activity. I have removed my audio instructions, but hopefully this is still useful.
This is a reading comprehension and writing resource I created many years ago when I was teaching A-Levels.
It is an extract of Tahar Ben Jelloun's book: Le racisme expliqué à ma fille.
Even though the specifications have changed; it is easily adaptable.
This bundle includes 14 resources to introduce and reinforce the A Level topic Integration & Discrimination.
It consists of:
_ a comprehensive PPT with 73 slides exploring the issues of immigration, integration and racism in France through the ages with lots of facts, but also quizzes, film extracts, study cases and testimonies.
_ 5 Reading Comprehensions with questions or True/False tasks,
_ 2 Summary Tasks: 1 Reading and 1 Listening
_5 Audio and 2 Video questionnaires
_ Comic Strips and pictures to illustrate the topic of racism
_ 2 Vocab sheets with illustrations and definitions of words related to Racism, Secularism and Discrimination.
_ A translation activity French to English
_ 10 Exams Questions with possible answers
No prep pair-work speaking activity.

Vocabulary acquisition
Part 2: Discussion questions

Can be used for a 1-1 speaking class or pair-work activity in a large class
Instructions for PART 1:
1) Working with a partner with the same photo (student As with As, Bs with Bs), students attempt to identify the vocabulary in their photo. (alternatively, for low-level students, the teacher can provide students with a vocabulary list and the students label the photo).
2) Change pairs to AB.
3) Student A describes photo while student B listens attentively.
4) Student B describes photo while student A listens attentively.
5) Still without looking at each other’s photos, students attempt to identify 3 differences between their photos.
Students may now look at each other’s photos and describe 2-3 differences each.
Encourage use of CONNECTORS:
Premièrement, Deuxièment,Pour finir
Cependant, D’autre part, Alors que
De plus, En outre, Par ailleurs
Instructions for PART 2
1) Students ask each other the discussion questions. Encourage students to:
Extend their answers
Elicit more information
Agree / disagree with their partners
Justify their arguments
2) Students try and report to their new partner everything they can remember which their old partner has just told them.
Encourage students to use the questions to guide their memory.
