ABC Countdown May 5-June 10 The last 26 days of school!
What is it? • A countdown for the last 26 days of school • Starts with letter A and ends with Z • Each day will have a different word beginning with that particular letter. It may be a place, food, person, etc. from the French-speaking world. • A fun way to learn about French culture! • The last extra credit opportunity for 3rd trimester!
How it works • Each student will receive his/her own pad of ABC Countdown forms • I will announce the word a day in advance during class so you can research it that night for the following day. It will also be posted on my webpage. • We will discuss each word, look at pictures, and watch video clips as it relates to the French culture.
How to receive credit • Go home and research that particular word. • Fill out the ABC Countdown form • Each letter that you complete is worth ½ point of extra credit. You may receive a maximum of 5 points of extra credit for this assignment (10 letters). • Any student that completes all 26 letters will receive a prize at the end!
Rules for receiving credit • The ABC Countdown form must be entirely filled out and in complete sentences! • Only the ABC Countdown forms that I give you are accepted. You may not submit post-it notes, notebook paper, etc. • You MUST turn in the ABC Countdown form before 9:00 a.m. to receive credit. I will have an envelope on my door and will also be outside in the 4th floor C-wing hallway from 8:45-9:00 with a large container. Any forms turned in after 9:00 a.m. WILL NOT be counted.
This is a fun way to end the school year! Take advantage of this cultural extra credit opportunity!
