HELP!!! French teacher in serious accident

Mar 16, 2011

Dear French Teachers,

We have an awful situation. Our French teacher was in a serious car accident and will not be returning for at least 6 weeks. She has not even been able to communicate with any of us in the department. There are no French subs to be found and we, the rest of the department, are desperate to give the students and the subs who are coming in something of quality. For the past week, the administration has been giving movies in French. Not even with a French theme. Do any of you have some type of computer program they could recommend or meaningful activities for non-French subs. Anything out there that does self grading like Quia? Anything is greatly appreciated. Our French students have had an awful year. The original teacher left in October, then there was a sub who bombed and suddenly left, now we finally got a wonderful teacher who has had this terrible accident. We are afraid she may not even return. Thank you to anyone who responds to this. We are desper...See More

k. best Hi,

I really like french.about.com. There are lessons and self- quizzes the students can take after each section. They grade them too! You can find practically anything about French grammar and culture there. This would require the students to each have a computer though. There are youtube videos and other audio-visual programs out there. ...See More

Jove! Where are you located? There are plenty of people looking for teaching/sub jobs. Try French-speaking parents, college students,the French department of the closest university. Check with district if a non-certified sub/teacher/instructor is allowed to teach when escorted by a certifed one.
