Sample French Immersion Writing Lesson for Grades 4-6

My ultimate goal when creating writing lessons is to keep them engaging and realistic for students while making easy-to-follow lesson plans and low-prep (as much as possible) for teachers. Here is an example of a lesson found in my French Poetry Writing Unit:

Please note that the downloadable lesson is at the bottom of this post!

I like to start off my poetry unit in stations. I have 3 stations and students

remain at each station for about 20 minutes.

Station 1: Poetry Information & Note Taking

Have students read up on the slides that I have made and take notes on the questions asked and jot down any other questions they may have about poetry.

Station 2: Poetry Book Exploration

If you have poetry books, great! If not, go ahead to your school library or public library and take out as many poetry books as you see fit. I usually try to take out mostly French ones, but I do bring a few English books as well.

Station 3: Blackout Poetry

Print a few copies of the instructions and example provided for this station. Have students observe and read it. Collect newspapers, magazines, or even print articles online. Place black

Sharpies at the station. Allow students to explore creating blackout poetry. Tell them to keep their favourite for sharing.
