In my fridge there is . . .

Currently in French we are working on a food unit. To kick off the unit my teaching partners and I had our students help us to create a word wall . . . or should I say word fridge :) We gave each group of students a theme (meat, veggies, fruit, drinks, desserts etc. . .) and then they each had to create an illustrated card with the new vocabulary to put inside the fridge! Since the students' helped to create the word fridge I find that they use it a lot more. Definitely something I will continue to do in the future! It's also been fun to play games using the fridge like "Qui suis je?".
I wish my actual fridge was stocked this way! 
Who doesn't keep cotton candy in the fridge? I know I do.
"Dr. Poivre" for "Dr. Pepper" I love when students translate proper nouns, way too cute!

  1. This is a really cool idea! I wish I could go back in time to my French classes and do more of these kinds of activities. I LOVE the Dr. Poivre, too!

  2. Thanks Kristen! I'll make sure to let the student know that her translation was a hit :)
