Did you know that in the USA, on April 22nd, people celebrate Earth Day ?

People meet in the streets and give documents about how to respect the environment, how to live in harmony with nature… You can also get a tree for free in some places, and plant it in your garden.

Dear students,
Welcome back… before you leave school, we must finish our topic 5 about Education. I would like you to discover a very important day in the life of American students, at the end of each year, it’s called graduation day.
1 ) Look at the 2 pictures and tell us what you can see (who ? what are they wearing ? why are they together ? what are they doing ?)


2 ) Now go to this link. Let’s read extracts from the text, and talk together :

Dear students,
Here are some audio and video files dealing with our new topic : homeschooling.
audio 1
video 1


1°) Listen and watch those 2 files. Then, look at the two pictures and complete the document : type of document ? / who ? / message ?
2°) Now imagine, you are an American mum or dad, and you read an article from parents explaining why they chose homeschooling. You want to write too, to explain why you refuse homeschooling for your children. Write a short article in the comments section.

All the teachers and adults working at Saint-Michel would like to thank all the students who helped at the annual “don du sang”, downtown Bordeaux. Thank you for preparing good sandwiches and salads, mouth watering desserts, and for being so helpful.
