A sample of useful videos:

FRENCH

Oreille Coupee https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ehhw1vtiKNU This was originally an interactive website but now remains only as a video. Great story, great graphics and language appropriate for lower secondary.

INDONESIAN

Bajaj Transformer – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QyJO8F9KdVc  Great story for students to relate and heaps of references to culture. No Language at all.

SURFAID video of when a quake happens – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9kEH7C0cjz0  National and regional language as people scramble to safety during an earthquake. The video team happened to be on-site to teach the villagers what to do in an earthquake. Great to listen to before watching and reading the English commentary.

Public Safety video – Ayo Mudik – Selamat Pulang Kampung  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DvUvXJYx-uM  Animation with song about how to travel safely on the road home for Lebaran.

SWAHILITing-tinga Tales – https://www.google.com/search?q=tinga-tinga+swahili&rlz=1C5CHFA_enAU729AU739&oq=tinga-tinga+swahili&aqs=chrome..69i57j0l5.7276j0j4&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8  Gorgeous whether in English or any other language. In this case, the language matches the story and illustrations.

CHINESE

My can-not Mum /My Imperfect Mum  –  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZYeipUPCjqc  Great story that shows modern home-life in China. This would fit into a program around Mothers’ Day Nad you can read how Ruby used it in her class at https://communitylanguageswa.com.au/2017/07/13/its-mct-via-video-for-ruby/

GERMAN

Cool song for junior primary https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iXFAunwnIxE
