Here are some activities that students can do. Some are designed for in-class, others distance education, and still others for both scenarios:
- Jouer à Never have I ever (à l'eau ou au jus évidemment)
- Faire un Show and Tell de vidéos Youtube bizarres/drôles à chaque séance
- Jouer au bonhomme pendu (not sure how that would go, but there's gotta be an app or website that does that)
- Faire un Show and Tell de blagues
- Faire un Show and Tell d'objets bizarres que les gens ont à la maison.
- Organiser des Freaky (fill in the day of the week you class is happening) où les étudiants doivent porter un accessoire vestimentaire loufoque (chapeau, chandail, lunettes, bijou)
- Faire un Show and Tell de moment les plus gênants dont on a entendu parler (anonymes bien sûr).
- Leur faire faire un vidéo du style Ice bucket Challenge (mais en plus léger, rien avec de la cannelle ou du poivre de cayenne), du genre: Flippe une toast avec du beurre de peanuts et essaie de la faire retomber sur le côté sans beurre de peanuts (sounds lame, but then again, aren't all these challenges sort of lame?)
- A dictogloss activity - Dictogloss is a language teaching technique that is used to teach grammatical structures, in which students form small groups and summarize a target-language text. First, the teacher prepares a text that contains examples of the grammatical form to be studied (Wikipedia).
The following websites offer suggestions for activities to do with students to reach various learning goals:
