Dear students,
In the annex below you'll find attached a digital version of the document entitled "LES BASES" that I gave you in class on the very first day.
You'll find attached (in the annex below) a copy of the contract and rules you'll have to follow in English for the whole school year.
Dear all,
As I do enjoy fostering your competitiveness as much as your team spirit, let me explain how this whole-new school year is going to turn out for you.
By virtue of the teacher's authority vested in me... I will sort you into one of the four teams, named after and emblematized by badass mythological creatures, namely:
- the fierce and ruthless WEREWOLVES
- the daring and fearsome DRAGONS
- the wise and powerful PHOENIXES
- the cunning and guileful KRAKENS
Similarly to Hogwarts' system of house points in the Harry Potter universe, you'll be given - and possibly withdrawn (if you misbehave) - team points after successfully doing some activities and exercises in class. The winning team will be the one who manages to get the biggest number of points at the end of the school year!
May the best team win !
Dear all,
Welcome to my English class!
I sincerely hope you will spend a mind-blowing year with me as your teacher, as I'm sure you will get yourselves to work if you want to succeed and improve your level of English.
Right below you will find a video displayed in big that I made to introduce the rules you'll have to respect in my class.
Watch it carefully !
Watch the video below until 1.00 and get ready to:
1°) Memorize each year with the corresponding comment.
2°) Make hypotheses about what every single event to explain what each comment could refer to (Use the structure S + MODAL + BV).
Finally, watch the end of the video and explain the type of document it is (what is its function?) and the message it conveys.
This is the scene from Billy Elliot that we watched in class after you described the film poster.
What are the similarities and differences you can notice with the first scene from Bend It Like Beckham that we studied in class?
Dear students,
In class, I will show you one of the official posters made for the film Billy Elliot, starring Jamie Bell & Julie Walters and directed by filmmaker Stephen Daldry.
Your task consists in describing it to your neighbour (who will not get to see the picture) as precisely as possible, in English. Your neighbour will jot down notes to be able to report what you will have told him/her in English. Later on we'll study one of the scenes from the film.
Watch the video from 4.06 to the end. Two events take place in this scene.
1/ What are these two events?
2/ Give the steps of the sportive scene.
3/ Explain the symbols of the scene.

Dear students,
You'll find attached the video of Malala Yusafzai's full speech during the Nobel Peace Prize ceremony in Oslo.
I hope you'll find it as powerful and inspirational as I do ! It's a long one, but it is definitely worth it !
Here below is the link to download the article with the questions concerning Malala, in case your dog unfortunately ate it :
