L'histoire de Pâques Mini Book #aimlang
Monday, April 15, 2019
For Easter this year, I designed a mini book similar to le petit livret de Noël à illustrer that I made last Christmas. My students seemed to really enjoy adding their own illustrations to the story that I chose to create a similar Easter-themed mini book. I tried to stick with vocabulary that my students are familiar with based on the AIM Language method but I had to introduce some new words. For the illustrations, I used the Apple pencil and the Sketches app on my iPad. They consisted mainly of people and, in order to explore vocabulary relating to emotions and parts of the face, I omitted the facial expressions, or the head entirely. The clipart of the cross and the tomb were both free images I found online.
In class, I use the document camera that I received from IPEVO to read through my finished copy as a whole group. Then I demonstrate how to complete the illustrations while students draw in pencil. Once we've completed all the illustrations, I invite them to trace over their drawings in a thin black marker or pen, erase any pencil marks and then colour everything in.
