(kan streames/lånes på MitCFU) Franswa Sharl I denne lille perle af en film gør den 12-årige Greg på kærlig og humoristisk vis op med sin fars forventninger om at være en traditionelt konkurrencemindet og sportsfixeret dreng. My dad has high expectations of me, because I m his no. 1. son, begynder Greg sin fortælling, der er lagt som en voice-over over filmen, som foregår i sommeren Hele familien er taget til Fiji sammen med naboerne for at holde påskeferie. Filmen er en bittersød kommentar til traditionelle kønsroller og kønsidentitet i familien, som kan inspirere i undervisningen til diskussioner og refleksioner over familieforhold, søskende og identitet ikke mindst kønsidentitet. Sproget er forholdsvist enkelt forståelse og indlæring understøttes af engelske undertekster. Undervisningsforløbet lægger op til en op til følgende lærings/kompetencemål fra fællesmål klasse: forstå udvalgte regionale og sociale varianter af talt engelsk forstå skrevne tekster inden for forskellige genrer om en række udvalgte emner af personlig, kulturel og samfundsmæssig relevans udtrykke sig mundtligt med rimelig præcision, spontanitet og lethed i et sammenhængende sprog afpasset udvalgte genrer og situationer, herunder udtrykke personlige erfaringer, redegøre for informationer og hovedindholdet af udvalgte teksttyper og fremlægge et forberedt stofområde deltage i samtaler og diskussioner om udvalgte personlige, kulturelle og samfundsmæssige emner i et sprog afpasset situationen 1

2 udtrykke sig skriftligt med rimelig præcision og i et sammenhængende sprog afpasset udvalgte genrer og situationer, herunder udtrykke personlige erfaringer, samt anvende informationer og viden inden for udvalgte genrer. I opgavehæftet er der lagt op til forskellige øvelser, hvor læreren kan bestemme sværhedsgraden. - Der er førfilmsopgaver, hvor elevernes forforståelse aktiveres gennem opgaver, hvor de tegner, fortæller om og erindrer ferieoplevelser med deres egen familie. - Forståelsesspørgsmålene til filmen kan løses individuelt eller to og to. Formålet er at fastholde filmens handling og vigtigt ordforråd derfra. - Derefter aktiveres elevernes kreative og empatiske sans i skemaet, hvor filmens personers største ønske/problem skitseres, men skemaet kan også simpelthen bruges som en måde at lave personkarakteristik på. Her vil det være relevant at arbejde i mindre grupper. - Opgaven, hvor filmens centrale personer skal have et godt råd med sig, er velegnet til diskussion i grupper og derefter klassevis, hvor filmens centrale temaer kan udfoldes. - I talen til Greg eller til hans forældre, kan niveauet ligeledes lægges dér hvor eleverne er lige nu. Hvor meget vægt der lægges på grammatisk korrekthed, hvor lang talen skal være osv. er op til den enkelte lærers vurdering ift. den klasse, der arbejdes med. God fornøjelse! 2

3 My wonderful family? Most people have a family or have had one. And whether we like or not - as children we are utterly dependent on the persons who feed us, help us, and guide us through our lives. Most often they are the ones we call mum and dad our parents Maybe that is why we love our parents when we are small. And why we want to make them proud of us, as we grow up. But wait! That is not always a simple task. Neither for child nor parent. Some parents want their kids to have good grades in school. Others want them to be good at sports. Some parents want their children to help out at home, others just want their children to be happy, and some parents don t have any time to spend with their children. Most parents and children find that their relationship changes dramatically as the child grows older and becomes a teenager. All of a sudden nothing is simple anymore! In the film Franswa Sharl the boy Greg has a very special way of showing his father who he is. But before watching it, please take a look at the tasks on the next pages! 3

11 Some good advice: Imagine that the persons from the film came to ask you some good advice for a better holiday or for a better relationship with the persons that matter to them. What would you tell them? Greg s dad: Greg s mum: Cassie: Greg: The Speech Now imagine that it s Greg s 21st birthday. You re his dad, his mother or Greg himself and you re going to make a speech. If you re his father or mother, what do you tell Greg? In the speech you must tell about the incident with the beauty contest and what it did to you as Greg s dad or mum. 11

12 If you choose to be Greg himself tell about the beauty contest and what it meant to you. Here are some phrases that you can choose between to begin your speech, you can also just make your own beginning: 1) My dear son! The fact that we are celebrating you tonight is actually quite surprising. For so many years, I felt that you were using every possible way to annoy me and disappoint me... 2) Dear Greg dear guests! I would like to rewind the time to nine years to when you were only 12. And I would like to relate an anecdote from our holiday at the Fiji Island, which will tell so much about the person you were as a child, and the young man you ve grown into 3) Greg guests! Today we are celebrating my no 1 son, who in so many way has disappointed me. And today I ll relate to you one of the worst things ever that occurred nine years ago on the Fiji Islands. 4) Dear Greg! As your mother, I have always loved you. You have always surprised me, and in so many ways, you ve shown me what real love is not only of other people, but also love for yourself. And I would like to remind you - and tell our dear guests about what happened at Fiji, 9 years ago 12
