Charlie Hebdo
I wanted to discuss freedom of speech, limits of humor, etc with my intermediate/upper interm. students and created this class in a rush because all we can hear on the news lately is about the French magazine massacre. This is just a warm-up exercise where you can work collocations and grammar. Students must complete the gaps with one of the given words. After the exercise, I ask my students questions about what they know from the story and their opinion, if they opt for #I'mCharlie or #I'mNotCharlie, if they are aware of muslims' situation in France, the use of veil, etc. You can change the given words and if you do so, I ask you to be kind to share with others.
