In groups, have students brainstorm words that represent the vocabulary and themes they anticipate encountering on a World Communities tour at the Museum. As a whole class, share these words and compile a master list. Create a class word cloud and discuss what the most common words were and why they are meaningful to the theme “world communities.”
The website Tagxedo will help your students easily create a word cloud. The bigger the words are in the word cloud, the more frequent or common the vocabulary or theme.
Give students a list of the class vocabulary terms and themes in French. Students will match the terms from French to English (or vice versa) to ensure understanding.
