Le temps des cerisiers en fleurs


 

C'est le printemps, finalement !

This year I created a new reading comprehension resource :  Le festival de cerisiers en fleurs. It's an article to read about the cherry blossom festival in Japan, along with traditions, picnic foods and information about where the most cherry trees can be found. 

I read this article with a few of my French classes early this spring, as the cherry trees blossomed quite early this year in Southern Japan in places like Kyoto. Students enjoyed reading about Japanese culture and learning about the tradition of Hanami. 

I also found this painting tutorial online, which I plan to do with an eager group of students who are part of the French Club after school this year. This activity could tie in to school-wide activities for Asian Heritage Month celebrated throughout the month of May. 

Finally, tpt is having a Spring Sale April 6th and 7th. Enjoy 20% off. 

Joyeux printemps!
