9TH NATIONAL CONGRESS OF TEACHERS OF FRENCH . SAN LUIS. 2006

OLORON CHIVASSO
ON THE GLOBAL SIMULATION Polimodal

Thematic:
-New technologies and revivals for the teaching - learning languages Foreign
-theoretical approaches and innovative practices

Institution: Escuela Normal Mixta
Pcia. San Luis.
Audience: Third year Polimodal. Group of 12 students.
Duration: Any the 2004 school year.
Objectives: Inventing a village
create fictional identities
give life to these characters and places through interactions .

What is a global simulation?

is, first, a journey into the imaginary group of people engage in a creative project collective is to invent a particular universe sharing the same symbolic universe, language, and take ownership of a piece of territory. That act and interact.
So the global simulation will include:
to act as if we lived anywhere but in the school world, and a paradoxical movement back and forth, out of this universe by the power of imagination and bring into the precincts of the place-class theme.
to act as if it was someone else going for in itself the resources to make the character credible invested and managed.
With a group of students from the third Polimodal year, they tried this adventure: the creation of the village on Oloron Chivasso, the invention of characters and the imagination of possible situations in this environment.
This allowed us to review material already learned and acquire new ones to offer differentiated tasks, motivate the class group and lead to a big party where students marched through the skin of their fictional characters.

National Congress of Education policies. Santa Rosa. 1999

6th National Congress of French Teachers. Rosario. 2000

TENT ON ANOTHER LANGUAGE?

In my experience as a French teacher, I observed that students arrive in school without knowledge of other languages besides English. The curiosity is aroused when they hear their friends welcome in French, singing, etc..
The objective was to expose students to a different language to that learned in schools and make them understand that the strategies they use to learn a foreign language, may well serve to learning others, in this case, French. On the other hand, the motivation for sharing multilingual experience, from reading, listening, singing, etc..
The experience was to convene a meeting of students of fifth Polimodal years, where there are groups who are learning English and others presented their French.Parents same text in French for students of English and vice versa, to make the global approach (for advertisements from a catalog of Quebec).
After working these texts, guided by teachers English and French, it was pooling where English students could see that, thanks to the transparency of the French, they were able to answer questions.
Then each group sang a song in the language 2, and they have taught their friends a song facile.On finished singing Lark.
The experience of this division has continued throughout the year, with the viewing of films in both languages, they are doing in language 2, and there are plans for this year's production of a bilingual newspaper.

"Multilingualism in stages" - from the provisional to the complexity of universal communication "

Authors: König, Rosmarie, Carracedo, Lilia, (French)
Caia, Angela, Mondon, Diana (English)

Institution : Unidad Educativa N º 15. General Pico, La Pampa, Argentina

Theme : Strategies for teaching

Year: 2001

As we noted a very different level among students in a same class of foreign language (especially English), and taking into account the consideration of several languages proposed by the Federal Education Act, we have carried out this project by distributing the school time and space, facilitating the work groupal and learning process. It is a flexible project and joints, which allows movement from one group to another, the possibility of a second foreign language and the general improvement of learning.
Objectives:
-Facilitate the articulation between different levels of language-Ability
multilingualism
-Optimizing the results of the teaching-learning while respecting the individual time-
Change group structure and timetable to achieve more meaningful learning
-Reply the needs of a society increasingly demanding in terms of integrating the world of work and access to higher education.
Starting:
was set the same schedule for the teaching of foreign language late possibiliter sharing by groups of students the 7th, 8th and 9th grades.
Then we set three stages corresponding to Level 1 "Marco del Acuerdo 15 f" of the Federal Law of Education, initial, intermediate and advanced.
the beginning of the year was performed to diagnose prior knowledge of English students, and were distributed into groups according to the result.
Once formed groups of English, those who wish may choose a second language, either French *.
Those who are in condition to pass the corresponding tests in English provided by the Federal Law Education, follow only the French, since the authorities have given their agreement, as the French foreign language curriculum.
Currently, there are 8 groups of English and 3 French (two from the initial stage and an intermediate step).
In the case of French, they have two hours of class per week, including a half-hour is dedicated to learning songs.
Students can advance or go back in groups, if they are making progress or if they have difficulties.
At the end of the year they are given a certificate which states the results achieved during the year.
A team of foreign language teachers establish the criteria for assessment and accreditations.
* It is expected in the future incorporation of other languages, depending on availability of teachers and community demand.

Conclusion:
view during the second year of this project, the learning obtained were significant. We advance more and better. Students become more independent and resourceful.
Today this project is part of the identity of the institution Having obtained the recognition of parents, and local and provincial authorities.

WORDS SONGS FOR TEACHING








AICHA ( Cheb Khaled )

As if I did not exist
she moved next to me without a glance
Queen of Sheba
I said Aisha, all is for you
Here the pearls, jewels
Therefore gold around your neck

The ripe fruit-flavored honey
Aisha my life if you love me.
go where your breath leads
In the countries of ivory and ebony I will erase
your tears, your sorrows
Nothing is too beautiful for so beautiful oh!
Aïcha, Aïcha, listen to me
Aïcha, Aïcha, please do not go
Aicha, Aïcha, look at me
Aïcha, Aïcha, answer me
I would say the words, poems
I would play the music of heaven
I would take the sun to light your eyes
dreams.
She said keep your treasures
Me, I'm better than all that
bars are even gold bars
I want the same rights as you
respect every day
I do not want love
Aïcha, Aïcha, listen to me
Aisha, Aisha, Aisha
go away, Aïcha, look at me
Aisha, Aisha listen to me
Aisha, Aisha, answer me



THE BOHEMIAN ( Charles Aznavour)

I'm talking about a time
That Teenagers Can not find

Montmartre that time

Hang her lilac
Until our windows
And so the humble garni
Who was our nest
Do not pay mine
is there that we knew
me crying famine
And you who posed
The bohemian, bohemia
That meant we were happy
The bohemian, bohemia
We only ate one every other day
In the neighboring
We had some
Who awaited glory And although poor

With hungry
We never ceased to believe And if a bistro

Against a good hot meal
We took a canvas
We recite verses
gathered around the stove
Forgetting
The winter bohemian, bohemia
It meant you were pretty
bohemia, bohemian
And we all engineering
Often I sometimes
Before my easel
From sleepless nights drawing
retouching
From the line of a breast contour
From a hip
And it was not until morning
What we finally sat
Over coffee cream
Exhausted but thrilled
Was it that we love each
And we love life
The bohemian, bohemia
That meant we were twenty years
The Bohemian bohemia
And we lived the zeitgeist
When randomly
days I'm going for a ride in my old address

I no longer recognize
Neither the walls nor the streets who have seen my
Youth
top of a staircase
Looking Workshop
which nothing remains
In its new setting
Montmartre seems sad
And the lilacs are dead
bohemia, bohemian
We were young, we were crazy
bohemia, bohemian
That does not mean anything at all.



DAMN THE FRENCH (Lynda Lemay)

They speak in precise words
Worse to pronounce all the syllables
At the end of any field they s'donnent kisses
They spend their days in large tables
They have menus that include not
They drink wine as if it were l'ea
they eat bread bad foie gras
By finding the means to not be fat
They're demonstrating to one quarter of Time
At every damn street corner of
All taxis have drivers who drive crazy
which stick in the ass
And when they talk to us v'nir
It is for the winter or Indian
Long walks on skis double
Or by dogsled
They have tiny cups and huge ashtrays

They are real coffee adult
They swallow it in two There are engorged
their big German shepherds
And their beloved poodles p'tits
On the floors of restaurants, grocery stores
Some pharmacies
They say they dine when they dine
And it's two o'clock when they eat breakfast at
p Tiny morning it smells like yoghurt
They know not eggs-bacon
Late evening is over sauerkraut magrebí
OF duck All snails or
s'déroule well until it 'that you taste their fucking
A calf's head
A piece of eyelid, a piece of gum
tip of an ear, a piece of snout
for taste buds Quebecois,

is too bad they take us for a Martian
when we order a glass of milk
or when to request "the bathroom
is what role, if If you please?
And when they come to us
S'prennent one (tuc?) and (CANUC)
start looking igloos
end up in a sugar shack
They fall in love instantly
With our forests and lakes
s'mettent And they talk like us to say
Aprennent "tabernacle" Well
drunk at Caribou, the Molson and big Gin
They rave about our stew of pigs' feet And our dishes
turbines
Since we have no smelly cheeses
They s'accomodent an old Cheddar
s'plaignent And not too much
From our little coffee bastard
When their stay nearing completion
They understood that they have no right to call us
From the Canadian
while one is Quebecois
They say goodbye with her eyes hardened
The maple syrup full of luggage
We realize that we like them
We wish them "bon voyage"
We are now giving becks
that as if it had always done
There's a hole in Quebec When
leave the damn French .-

SOMEONE TOLD ME (Carla Bruni)

I am told that our lives are not worth much, They pass in
a moment like the roses wither.
I am told that the time slips is a bastard That our grief
he cloaks himself
Yet someone told me.
That you still love me,

Someone told me that you still love
.
Would that be possible?
I am told that destiny makes fun of us
it gives us nothing and promises everything we
Seems that happiness is within reach,
So we reach out and find madness
Yet someone told me ... the chorus} {
But who was it who told me that you love me?
I do not remember, it was late at night,
I can still hear his voice, but I do not see the face
"He loves you, it's a secret, he do not tell the I said "You see someone
said ...
That you still loved me
a - do we really say ...
That you still love me, so that possible?
I am told that our lives are not worth much,
They pass in an instant, like wilting roses
I am told that the time slips is a bastard That our sorrows
he cloaks himself, however
someone told me that ... the chorus} {


WAY ON YOUR WAY (Les Choristes)

Vois sur ton chemin
Gamins forgotten lost
Give them a hand
To the conduct

To other
tomorrows Feel in the heart of
night The wave of hope

Burning Life Path of Glory.
Happy Too quickly forgotten childish
erased A golden light shines
endless
At the end of the road
Sense in the heart of the night The wave of hope

Burning Life Path of Glory



I LOVE YOU TO DIE (Francis Cabrel)



Me I was nothing, and today I am
the guardian of his nights sleep I
love him to death
You can destroy whatever you please
She has only to open space arms
To rebuild everything, to rebuild everything
I love him to death
She gummed figures clocks neighborhood
It has made my life paper shapes
Bursts of laughter
She has built bridges between us and the sky
And we cross whenever she wants
Do not sleep,
will not sleep I love to die
She had to do all wars
To be so strong today
She had to do all wars
Of life and love as she saw his
his best opaline dream
She dances in the forests that draw
I love him to death
She wears ribbons she let fly
She often sings I wrong to try to
withhold, retain
I love him to death
To get into his cave hidden under the roof
I'm nailing the notes to my wooden clogs
I love him to death
I just sit, I do do not talk
I owe nothing to want, I'm just trying
From him belong, to belong
I love him to death


Je Ne Regrette Rien (Edith Piaf)


No, nothing at all
No, I regret nothing Neither the
good that I've done wrong
Neither
While I do not care.
No, nothing at all,
No, I regret nothing
is paid, swept away, forgotten I do not care
the past.

With my memories I lit the fire
My sorrows, my pleasures
I no longer need them
Sweep loves
With air Tremolo Sweep
forever
I start from scratch
No, nothing nothing
No, I regret nothing
Because my life, because my joys
Today, it starts with you.


TO ME MY CME . (Patricia Kaas)

He plays with my heart, he cheats with my life
he said the words liars, and I believe everything he says
the songs he sings to me, the dreams he made for two
is like candy mint
it feels good when it rains
I tell stories, listening to his voice
is not true stories, but I d 't believe . My
guy to me, he tells me of adventures
and when they shine in his eyes
I would spend the night.
He speaks of love as he talks about cars
and I'm where he wants
so I think all that he tells me.
His way of being me, never say I love you
is just film, but it's all the same
this film in black and white, that m has played two hundred Once it
Gabin and Morgan, finally it looks like all that
I'm telling stories, screenplays Chinese
is not true these histoiores, but me, I think.



BREAKING THE VOICE (Patrick Bruel)

If tonight I do not want to go alone
If tonight, I do not want to go home

If tonight, I do not want to shut the hell
If tonight I want to break my voice
Breaking voice, voice breaking, Breaking
voice, voice breaking.
i can no longer believe any c'qui is marked on the walls
more i can see, the lives of others even paint
I'm not there to smiles after midnight
not want me, so tonight I want
On break my voice, voice breaking
Breaking voice, voice breaking.
friends who go away, and others who remain
Getting caught for a fool by people that hate
appointments missed and the time is lost between young
worn and old and those who hope
Blinding flashes on TV every day
And the bastards who bellow the color of love And
newspapers lying around as I drag my boredom
The fear that is mine when I m 'awake at night
Breaking voice, voice breaking
Breaking voice, voice breaking.
And the girls of the night that never sees the day
And we sleep in his bed by calling it 's love
shame And the memories that we forget to ice
By saying I'm yucky, but I'm not disgusting
Slowly the dreams that flow under the gaze of parents and the tears that
roll on the cheeks of children
And the songs that are like cries in the throat
Want to scream his hate like a cat being slaughtered. Breaking
voice, voice breaking
Breaking voice, voice breaking



COFFEE DELIGHTS OF (Patrick Bruel)


Your memories are veiled, it feels like. Eclipse
A night full of stars, the port of Tunis
The wind range of your grandfather sitting in the café

Your memories grow dim, you see the train pass
And the white sails of women holding a son
And the smell of jasmine he held in his hands
coffee delights.
Yalil yalil Abibi yalil, yalil yalil Abibi yalil
Your memories grow dim, you can see her daughter
The kiss that hurts the Port El Kantaoui
The first words of love on the songs velvet

for you, they were balls
And the holiday parties we did in our heads
beaches of Hammamet.
Yalil yalil Abibi yalil yalil yalil Abibi yalil
Your memories are veiled in front of the boat
And what else that moves towards a new world
A life stops for a day that begins
Maybe a chance.

Yalil yalil these perfumes of yesteryear
Yalil yalil you will not forget
Yalil yalil even if you leave
Yalil yalil Abibi yalil yalil yalil Abibi yalil
A night full of stars on the port of Tunis
And the white sails of women taking a son
The wind range of your grandfather sitting
And the smell of jasmine in his hands he held the
coffee delights.

    lyrics of the song


A girl is

Author: Jean Jacques Goldman
singer Patricia Kaas


Because our skies are dark And here we
no sea
We put the blue in our eyes

It was in our eyes that is lost
Perhaps because of the sun
Who we forget long seasons
We want gold as Marseille
It has leaps in our hair.
I am of a country, a horizon, a border war
that sounds, that sounds eternal winter
And if you want
teach me If you really want to know me I'm in
each word in each of my gestures
A girl from the East. Here
cold ice bodies
But the heat can burn you
With us everything is very intense and is
not do things half
And all these crosses, these trenches
Here we know the price of blood
L absurdity of fighting when
We fell on both sides.
I am of a region, language, history
That sounds far-sounding battles and memory
one that saw me born
one who made me the way I'm made
Land, a character, the one I left.
I am one of those worthy
And standing in their silence
Where speech is speech that promise has meaning. And if you know

understand Who I am, I hate when I love or I'll give you love
right, simple and sincere girl
In Eastern
one daughter of the East.

Like many legendary artists, the birth of Edith is already a legend in her, Edith was born in the street at 72 rue de Belleville, Paris, under a lamppost. His father was an acrobat, and her mother is a singer. But it seems to be rather Edith born in hospital in December 19, 1915. At the time, little is known Edith Gassion, and it starts in music by singing popular hymns in the street. At age 20, she was spotted by Louis Leplée, owner of the tavern "The Gerny's, who invited him to sing on its stage. The voice and the small size of Edith Louis inspire the nickname "Môme Piaf". Under this name it will start to come forward, before leaving in 1936, his first recording, "Kids from the bell." But Leplée, his protector, was assassinated at his home, and Piaf must find a new sponsor: This is Raymond Asso. Madly in love with the singer, Raymond suggested he read " My Legionnaire ", already performed by another, but will be enhanced by the voice of Piaf. It Marguerite Monnot, who composed the musical part of "Mon Legionnaire", which comprise many other great success of Edith Piaf. Raymond then makes every effort to Piaf becomes the star of the ABC prestigious concert hall, where the singer then made a hit in 1937. Star of the late 1930s, Sinatra triumph at Bobino and in "Le Bel Indifferent", a play that Cocteau in 1940, specially written for her and her companion of the moment, the actor Paul Meurisse. She then played with Paul in the movie "Montmartre on stage, and it is on the making of this feature it will make the acquaintance of Henry Contet, which will become, like Marguerite Monnot, one of his favorite composers. During the German occupation, Edith, who finally traded "La Môme Piaf" cons "Edith Piaf", continues to give concerts, but do not give in against the Nazi occupation: she sings songs with double meaning, referring to the resistance under the guise of a lover ("You are everywhere"), and protects the Jewish artists threatened by the militia and the Germans. The summer of 1944 led to Piaf's a new lover: Yves Montand, it will propel their careers. Then in 1945, Piaf wrote one of his first title without help from anyone, "La vie en rose", now a classic. A year later, the singer met the Companions of the song with which it cans the song "The Three Bells," which made a great hit. Piaf then left with his proteges give concerts in the U.S. during the year 47. In New York, she met the boxer Marcel Cerdan and immediately fell in love with him. She decided to write to him, with the complicity of Marguerite Monnot, the famous "Hymn to Love . But Cerdan died in 1949 in a plane crash: Edith is devastated and tries to forget (in vain) his grief by immersing himself in work. It launches Charles Aznavour, who also wrote "Jezebel," and Eddie Constantine in 1951. But Piaf accumulates dramas since suffered two car accidents. The second is very serious, and it gives the singer morphine so that she does not suffer too much. Except that morphine is addictive, and Piaf from this day can not live without it. Morphine and alcohol will be among other leaders of the untimely death of Edith. In 1952 Edith married for the first time in her life with Jacques Pills, a singer of his condition. At that time, a certain Gilbert Becaud accompanying Sinatra on piano during his tour of New York. Becaud Pills him up and "I have in the skin." In New York and Paris, Edith is a real star, triumphing in all the rooms where she goes. In 1956, Piaf sings "Lovers for a Day" and "The man with the bike" in Olympia, and a year later, will inform its audience "The Crowd", a title inspired by a song-south American, and "My ride to me." Piaf also continues to unearth new talent, including Georges Moustaki, who composes with the participation of the faithful Monnot, the famous "Milord". Moustaki is also one of the many lovers of Piaf, but refuses to submit to the tyranny of the singer. Piaf Charles Dumont, later promoting it says "No I do not regret anything." Then Edith Piaf back again on the stage of the Olympia, to render service to Bruno Coquatix the edge of bankruptcy. The same year, Edith falls in love Lamboukas Theophanes says "Sarapo" (nickname found by Edith, which means "I love you" in Greek), and try once again to propel the career of her lover. She Sarapo married in 1962, and they sing at Bobino a year later, their flagship title, "What good is love." In 1963 Edith Piaf is physically destroyed, and left to rest in the south, near Cannes. It's there, she died in Plascassier October 11, 1963, hours before Jean Cocteau, one of his best friends .

1) What do you know of Edith Piaf before you start writing the screenplay? What was the trigger to make this film?


a) In fact, I personally do not know Marion. I found in movies, but otherwise I did not know about it. My choice was based on intuition ... I really felt that she was able to take this role and could cope with becoming Piaf.

2) When writing, you knew it would Marion Cotillard who would play the role. How did you discover and how did you understand the stuff she had to embody Piaf?

b) Actually, I did not know much about her. Of course, I knew like everyone else a few songs or good pieces of his life. What gave me the trigger is a picture of her. She was dressed in the street a little punk. It was totally out of sync with the image that you watch it in general. Nothing to do with Piaf in little black dress. To see her in that outfit and punk, I was really challenged and that is where my desire was born to do this movie. But I did not make his story a biography in pictures La Vie en Rose is a portrait.


3) This clip where Piaf learns of the death of Marcel Cerdan is a highlight of the film. Beautiful staging of the loss with this stroll through the long corridors empty. It is always a difficult exercise, how did it place on the set?

c) Momone. I love the real Momone (Simone Bertaut), she wrote two books, one about Piaf that is filled with inconsistencies or she invents things entirely. By cons, she wrote very well, she had a beautiful word. His second book is truly remarkable, and I like his phrasing is marked by where it comes from ... It is the shadow world of the street and is this is interesting.

4) Is this clip that has given you most pleasure?


d) At the base is true that it is not my music ... But there's a song that he wrote and Prevert who is in the movie that I love. The text is simply beautiful ...

5) Ginou Richer, near Edith Piaf, was present during the shooting. When you are plunged into life as a person, such a meeting must be of high intensity?


e) I had written it like that, it is really for the plan sequence. I realized as I wrote and imagined, and it is very rare! It is something very hard for a director, it happens rarely elsewhere, to see the final plan exactly as I had imagined. I wanted it to be a plan that summarizes his entire life ... The joy, tragedy, loss and then back to the scene. For me, this plan is a summary of all the emotions that drive this film.

6) There are many very fine supporting roles, Gerard Depardieu , Jean-Paul Rouve , Sylvie Testud, Clotilde Courau , Emmanuelle Seigner . Which character resembles you the most?

f) Yes necessarily, especially since I did not want to meet people who knew him while I was writing, but only after the script finished. I waited impatiently to have their feelings about what I wrote. Ginou was immediately very reassuring, she said it was exactly that. It would have been embarrassing if she told me it was completely off (laughs)! I also met Georges Moustaki who told me many things and that was very nice. It is a very charismatic man. I spent an evening with George to drink and talk. I also objects that belonged to Edith Piaf at home, such as letters or other small things like that. I would keep a relationship a bit with this particular artist.

7) Another quick question portrait! What song Piaf's most like you?

g) You know, this is not always the most spectacular scenes in which we take the most pleasure. Here in this case yes, for this long sequence shot there was a real feeling on set. But all sorts of shots I liked. Every day there were plans that held my heart. Interview by Florence Rochat (Paris, February 2007)

La vie en rose
Eyes that gaze into mine
a laugh who knows pierce his mouth
this is the unretouched portrait
the man to whom I belong
When he takes me in his arms
he whispers to me
I see life in pink
he told me words of love
words everyday and it makes me
something
he came into my heart
share
happiness which I know the question for me is he

me for him in life
he told me, has sworn

for life and when I see him
so I feel in me my heart beat

Nights of love die
great happiness takes its place
troubles and sorrows go
happy, happy to die.
