French Immersion: Diving into the New Curriculum
Thursday February 20, 2025 9:00am - 10:00am MST
Are you a K-3 French Immersion teacher who is implementing the new FILAL (French Immersion Language Arts and Literature) curriculum? Are you feeling a bit insecure, or maybe even lost and confused? Do you find yourself looking for resources, answers, and support? This session is for you. We will spend time talking about the reality of implementing the new FILAL curriculum. For those who teach English as well, we can also touch on how FILAL fits in with the ELAL curriculum.
Please note, this is a collaborative session. The facilitator is not a curriculum specialist, but a Grade 3 FI teacher. She will facilitate a session where K-3 FI teachers can get together and share, brainstorm and learn from each other.

Note: Bringing a laptop a login for new.learnalberta.ca is highly recommended for this session.

Cette session sera présentée en français.
