Students will learn about how and why November 11th is a holiday in many countries. What is Armistice or Remembrance Day and why is it observed on this date? Students will look at common expressions associated with November 11th and discuss what they mean. We will discuss the poppy and why it is an important symbol. We will watch short video clips, look at images via google slides and analyze the poem "In Flander's Fields".

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hi! My name is Megan and I'm a mom, a teacher, and a world traveler! I love learning languages and discovering new cultures, having lived in the US, France, Belgium and Ecuador. I have a passion for teaching and connecting with kids. I have been teaching French at all levels for over 12 years. I'm a native English speaker from New York who truly enjoys helping French language learners understand this complicated language in easy to understand and fun ways! I try engaging learners with new technology, music, videos and games whenever possible. My style is warm, welcoming and allows for students to take risks with new languages in a safe space. I have a B.A in French, Spanish and Education and a M.A in French, Language Literature & Culture. I also hold an advanced certificate in TESOL. I've been a certified teacher in the United States for over 10 years and have taught in public schools for most of my career.
