Découvertes de musique en Français with Maryne Dumaine

Maryne Dumaine • Music - General

French should be a language of the heart, and what is better suited to reach the heart than music? This program will introduce Yukon students to new and diverse trends in french music and use it in a dynamic and interactive way to learn more about french culture, language and history. Students will discover new artists and songs, and hopefully like and listen to some of them outside of school. They will learn new vocabulary through french songs and be exposed to french culture from everywhere in the francophone world. A longer session is also available that would allow several different activities to take place. Multiple sessions could introduce the concept of radio hosting and possibly a radio recording. This could be taken to a wider community level, either on community radio or school radio. Please contact Maryne if you have ideas, or need someone to find music for your classroom.
