Here are 2 interesting sites with trailers of recent films: |
Bend It Like Beckham |
"Bend It Like Beckham" interweaves

like "East is East" and Monsoon Wedding, adding a healthy
dose of MTV flavour in the appropriate spots." ( Film
Threat). A few ideas for using
this film in the classroom:
|

already prepared lessons on this film. Take a look at these excellent
pages created by Alain Krizic and Josiane Laval, and tested in their

Un très
bon site sur Harry Potter suggéré par Alain Robert (Sète)
: http://www.hp-lexicon.org.
Tu peux commencer par un travail sur des reviews d'Harry Potter qu'on
trouve facilement on line, puis 1) leur faire repérer tout ce qui exprime l'enthousiasme des lecteurs, 2) Les raisons de leur enthousiasme et ensuite un travail thématique à partir d'extraits. Tu peux aussi étudier quelques extraits sur DVD ... Olivier Colas signale qu'il existe un dossier HARRY POTTER sur le site d'anglais de l'académie de Versailles http://www.ac-versailles.fr/pedagogi/anglais/ Alain Krizic, lui, a crée des activités pour seconde sur son site http://www.ac-orleans-tours.fr/anglais-liens/SitePedago/krizic/Dobbie/harryp.htm (+ lien http://www.scholastic.com/harrypotter/home.asp) et recommande aussi le scéren-cndp http://www.cndp.fr/lesScripts/bandeau/bandeau.asp?bas=http://www.cndp.fr/actualites/question/harry/anglais.htm |
