At the very start of École virtuelle (virtual school), my French 3 class chose partners and began researching "un mouvement d'art" (an art movement) of their choice, including its history, the most celebrated artists of the movement, the message or defining characteristics of this movement, and specific techniques used.
This morning, each set of partners presented their findings over Zoom in a format of their choice. Their goal was to teach us about the movement en français and to engage us in some way through an activity, game, film or even their own version of artwork within the same style of the movement.
J'étais très impressionnée par leur travail et par leur créativité! (I was impressed with their work and creativity!)
