Teacher-learners will participate in various B2-level synchronous and asynchronous listening, speaking, reading, and writing tasks in a gradual release of responsibility model. They will develop effective pedagogical practices and communication skills using research-based strategies and authentic texts.
Participants will use their increasingly independent language skills to explore the challenges of FSL teaching, including student diversity and engagement, Differentiated Instruction (DI), and Universal Design for Learning (UDL).
Participants will further develop language proficiency through exposure to high-frequency vocabulary specific to FSL teaching. They will gain a clear understanding of the proficiency expectations and evaluation criteria for the A2 level and of how these expectations can be integrated into the FSL classroom.
Participants will engage in practical and meaningful work designed to develop language proficiency specific to the FSL teaching profession. They will be invited to listen, speak, read, and write in A1-level French while forming professional connections in an inclusive and welcoming environment.
This session will introduce practical strategies for implementing differentiated instruction in language classrooms, focusing on tailoring lessons to meet varied learning styles, proficiency levels, and backgrounds.
