This WebQuest activity is not intended
as any kind of first aid course and does not imply
first aid certification. If students want to take
first aid courses, they should talk to their school
nurse, health teacher, or the Red Cross. This activity
is for language purposes only. Advise students that
if they are unsure of what to do in an emergency situation,
they should call 911 and not attempt to intervene.
Expansion - Have students work in pairs or small groups. Make sure students who wrote about different emergencies in Après avoir surfé are grouped together. Have them explain to their group in French the emergency response they learned. Then have each group create a presentation about responding to emergencies for the class. The presentations should include the response each student learned as well as catchy titles and introductions.
