European Day of Languages
|
|
Hello everyone We celebrate the European Day of Languages on the 26th of September in our school and we are asked to organise activities to celebrate this event. Last year for example I asked my students to draw and name objects in all the languages they know; there was also a competiition: students had to learn as many greeting formulas as they could. This year nothing comes into my mind, so I would like to ask for your help. Does anyone have any good ideas? Thanks in advance!� |

Hi!
This topic was started by different users last week. I found a very interesting thread here: http://www.eslprintables.com/forum/topic.asp?id=11671. Silke had a great idea and I think I will use it next week.
Hope it helps you, too.

Heya,
at my school we �ll have a short radio programme where the kids will read a short text in different languages (English, German, French, Spanish, Chinese- I think it �ll be Cantonese, but I �m no expert - and Slovenian of course).
Classes will (and have already) prepared posters on different countries where the above mentioned languages are spoken and we created little vocabulary cards we put all around the school, so children can learn how different objects that they see every day are called in different languages.
My class also prepared vocabulary cards to show differences in English language itself (e.g. BrE vs. AmE) and those are displayed on a board in a hall.
Most of these are not really activities we �d do on the spot as we created them over time, but maybe you get ideas from the post...

Is there any French speaking person who could help translate this:
My name is ....
I come from France.
What is your name?
Do you speak English?
Donapeter, thanks for the link to the languages tread! Silke, your idea is simply outstanding! A couple of years ago I did something similar, but only using �Hello � . Kids wrote it in different languages on A4 paper, decorated them and we stuck them on a big board. It looked nice.
Have a calm evening / morning / afternoon / night!
