In this course, students will learn to identify colours and numbers, as well as shapes in French. There will be a project that they need to do at home after their third class so that they can present it during our fourth class together. Students will be asked to create a monster using different shapes and colours. They will be asked to present their monster and use the vocabulary words that hey have learned in our previous lessons together. I will be speaking both English and French during each lesson. Lesson #1: Numbers - Students will have fun learning how to count to 10 in this lesson. - At the beginning of class, we will spend a bit of time learning to greet someone in French. - They will then learn to count and identify numbers in French. We will practice the pronunciation of each number and practice counting monster body parts. - I will be using props and a whiteboard to quiz students throughout the lesson. - We will play games with cards ranging from 1-10. Lesson #2: Colours - Students will have fun learning the names of colours in French in this lesson. - At the beginning of class, we will greet each other in French. - They will then learn to identify colours in French. We will practice the pronunciation of each colour. - I will be using a slideshow to show the colours. - Students are encouraged to find objects that show the colours we are talking about. - I will be using props and a whiteboard to quiz students throughout the lesson. - We will finish class by drawing a funny monster using a different colour for each body part. Lesson #3: Shapes - Students will have fun learning the names of shapes in French in this lesson. - At the beginning of class, we will greet each other in French. - They will then learn to identify shapes in French.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree in Education from Bishop’s University
Hello!
My name is Yvonne and I am a certified elementary school teacher in Quebec, Canada. I have 5 years of experience teaching in a classroom setting and over three years of experience teaching ESL online.
I am a stay-at-home mom at the moment. I have three boys under the age of 8 that keep me very busy. I'm so excited to have found Outschool because I have missed being in the classroom and teaching subjects that I love. I believe students learn the best when they feel comfortable in the classroom. I engage my students by being genuine, encouraging, patient, and funny. Building rapport and relationships with my students is as important as the content of the lesson.
I have a passion for languages and speak three myself (English, French, and Swiss German). I also get by in Spanish and German. I will be creating French classes for beginners. I want my students to enjoy learning a new language and feel comfortable enough to speak it in my class.
I also really love travelling and have been lucky enough to have visited many countries in Europe, South America, and Africa. I will be offering classes that take us around the world. Some of my travel classes will have a different focus (animals, food, extreme weather, etc.) while others will be more general but focus on a specific country.
I also really enjoy teaching through the use of picture books and will be creating a variety of lessons based on some of my favourite books. I will be creating lessons that focus on making connections as readers. I also enjoy teaching my students the writing process by first exploring different themes and topics that connect with them.
I am very happy to be teaching through Outschool and look forward to meeting your child!
