«Durant la Semaine Canada en programmation, des élèves à l’échelle du pays programmeront ensemble pour déverrouiller le Monde des émojis et bâtir un monde meilleur pour tous les émojis.

L’année dernière, les élèves à l’échelle du Canada ont appris à programmer et rempli le Monde des émojis de milliers d’émojis de 💩 caca 💩. Malheureusement, ces émojis ont relâché trop de CO₂ et le Monde des émojis est maintenant exposé à des changements climatiques majeurs.

En tant que membre du personnel enseignant, vous serez aux commandes, et nous serons vos copilotes. Notre mission est de réduire les émissions de CO₂ causées par les milliers d’émojis de caca du projet de la Semaine Canada en programmation de l’année dernière.

Commencez dès maintenant en recevant nos plans de leçons en vedette directement dans votre boîte de réception. C’est le temps de programmer! 🚀»

"The website includes clusters of task-based lessons and examples of tasks that fit within each of Willis’ (1996) six types of tasks. The LCD Group is also dedicated to promoting intercultural communicative competence (see Foundations section) in the second language classroom and has included a section of activity ideas and lesson plans to demonstrate how intercultural themes can be embedded in and complement second language instruction."

"This module - consisting of 49 lesson plans, a personal dictionary, a personal language portfolio, a video located on Youtube, and handouts, worksheets, and other materials to support implementation of the lessons - was developed to support teachers in introducing learners to the French language using a task-based approach. It is assumed that the learners participating in this module will have had minimal exposure to the French language and, therefore, emphasis has been placed upon developing learners’ vocabulary, foundational communicative skills, willingness to take risks in communicating in a second language, and awareness about linguistic and cultural difference. The module could be used with any beginner group of young French language learners[.]"
