Hey!

Yesterday, since the rest of the class was taking their German oral exam, you worked on interview questions about the three notions you will present for your oral exam.

Here they are:

Gun bearing in the US

7) Why are Americans so attached to guns?

8) Do you think that gun bearing increases the number of massacres in the US?

9) According to you, what are the solutions to fight against school shootings?

10) Should we allow gun bearing in France?

11) Is gun bearing efficient to defend ourselves against terrorism?

Stolen Generations

1) Do you think assimilation could be as successful as integration?

2) What is the difference between assimilation and integration?

3) Would you be ready for a cultural exchange in a foreign country?

4) What do you know about the present life of the Aborigines?

5) Do you think the Stolen Generations should forgive Australia?

6) What can the Australian do now to integrate better Aborigines?

Genetic selection

3) Do you think parents will be reasonable enough not to use genetic selection for superficial reasons?

4) Would you like a job in relation to progress? Why? Why not?

Today, after you compared the two stories of the Three Little Pigs, you looked for other differences between the two versions.

You completed your methodology worksheet 'How to twist a fairy tale?'

Then, you picked all the techniques used to twist a fairy tale in the video below:

Here is what you said:

Shrek is a twisted fairy tale because there is a mixing-up tale with Robin Hood. Moreover, there is humour : for example, Robin Hood has a strong French accent and Fiona didn't behave as a princess because she burped.
There are also exaggerations and ridicule when Fiona knocked Robin Hood down.
Roles are switched because Fiona saved Shrek.
Furthermore, it's a parody of Matrix and there is an anachronism with the phone.

Here are your reactions:

The class is against the creation of the Litle Baby Face Foundation in France because kids are too young and can regret later. Besides, hang-ups are not physical but psychological problems,so they need a psychologicalist. Morever, their faces will probaly change.
