CPF (Ontario) Annual General Meeting - fast and focused
The Annual General Meeting (AGM) of Canadian Parents for
French (Ontario) was held on Sunday, October 22, 2006.
After two days of participating in fabulous workshops at the
National Conference and learning from amazing guest
speakers such as Dr. Fred Genesee who presented on “The
Suitability of French Immersion for all Students” and Nicole
Thibault who spoke on the Intensive French delivery model,
our Ontario delegates were ready to get down to business.
The afternoon began with a presentation to Paul Caron. He
received a Distinguished Life Membership from CPF
(Ontario) in recognition of his long-standing commitment and
dedication to the advancement of FSL programming in the
province. John Ryan, CPF (Ontario) Board member, then
accepted the McGillivray Award on behalf of this year’s recipient, Yvonne Dufault (see page 3).
The agenda items of the AGM were dealt with efficiently with
unanimous acceptance. The President’s Report, the Executive Director’s Report and the Statement of Revenue and
Expenses have been reproduced in this newsletter for your
review. We are pleased to welcome three new directors to
the CPF (Ontario) board, Denis Dalton from Toronto, Luisa
Giaitzis from Burlington and Maureen McEvoy from Ottawa.
Heather Stauble, our vice-president, ran a very informative
one-hour workshop after the AGM specifically for the Ontario
delegates. The workshop chronicled events and agreements
which led up to the Ontario Action Plan and the Funds for
Renewal of FSL, now available to the 60 school boards offering French second language programs. The workshop focused on how CPF (Ontario) members must ensure that
board trustees are aware of the availability of these funds
and ensure that the funds are being used for new initiatives. Our
knowledge of the availability of
these funds adds strength to any
proposals we may put forth to improve or expand FSL programming and access for all children in
the province.
It was a great conference!

A Successful Pilot of The Peer Tutoring Literacy Program for
French Immersion Schools
From April - June 2006, a pilot of The Peer Tutoring
Literacy Program took place at St. Joseph School, a JKGrade 8 Early French Immersion School in North Bay.
With the support of the principal, Marcello Tignanelli,
and the staff at the school, a small pilot program was
started consisting of four readers from Grades 2 and 3
and four tutors from Grade 7.
gram demonstrated that it definitely supported improvements in student reading ability. This program offered
students an authentic context in which to communicate
in their second official language, French. We were very
proud of the work our students were doing in reading
and were very impressed and pleased to hear our students communicating with each other in French.
This pilot program proved to be a positive and beneficial
experience for all involved. Readers looked forward to
reading with their peer tutors twice a week for a half
hour and the tutors had the opportunity to demonstrate
their leadership abilities through this added responsibility. It was very impressive to see and hear the positive
interactions that took place between the tutors and the
readers. The tutors gently prompted and corrected their
peer readers as they read.
Ginette Hamelin,
FSL Catholic Curriculum Coordinator
Nipissing-Parry Sound Catholic
District School Board
As the teacher coordinator, my experience with this pro-
The Peer Tutoring Literacy Program is aimed at fostering
literacy in French Immersion. It is designed for almost independent Grades 2 and 3 readers, with no major learning
difficulties, who would benefit from extra reading support.

Intensive Core French Pilot Project
Ontario’s first training session for Intensive Core French
(ICF) took place in August 2006 at Glendon College in
Toronto. ICF is an alternative model to teaching core
French. Participants included various members of the
FSL education community.
Under the direction of Intensive Core French co-founder
Dr. Claude Germain and ICF teacher Jane Jonah, the
training program provided participants with the basic
principles of ICF, information on the program’s role in
Canadian schools thus far, as well as tangible teaching
strategies and practices necessary to begin ICF Ontario
pilot programs.
presented by CPF (Ontario) to Ontario FSL Education
Officer Louise Pharand in October 2005, and to Dr. Avis
Glaze, Ontario’s Chair of the Literacy and Numeracy
Secretariat in February 2006. CPF (Ontario) continues
to promote this initiative and anticipates the implementation of pilot project classrooms in the next school year.

Le concours/festival d’art oratoire
CPF (Ontario) is proud to announce that the 23rd annual Le concours/festival d’art oratoire will take place at Glendon
College (York University) on Saturday, May 12, 2007.
Le concours/festival d’art oratoire is the largest French public speaking event in Ontario. Participants include students
in grades 4 to 12 taking French as a second language.
Last year 275 students from 29 Ontario school boards participated in the event. Prizes are awarded to students in
grades 9-12. First place winners in the 11-12 category move on to the National Concours in Ottawa, scheduled for May
26, 2007. The 1st place winners of that event will receive a 4-year scholarship to the University of Ottawa ($20,000).

President’s Annual Report
The past year has been a very successful one
for the advancement of French Second Language (FSL) programs in Ontario. With the
signing of the Canada-Ontario Agreement on
Minority Language and Second Official Language Instruction 2005-06 to 2008-09 in
March of this year, unprecedented progress
was made towards support and revitalization
of Core French and French Immersion programs for Ontario schools.
As a result of the Agreement, an Action Plan
was created by the Ministry of Education and
the Ministry of Training, Colleges and Universities which outlined activities, strategies, expected outcomes, performance indicators and
required accountability measures in order to
reach the goal outlined in the Canada-Ontario
Agreement. For the first time in over fifteen
years, school boards received detailed memorandums from the Ministry of Education on
how funding provided through the Agreement
was to be used at the local level to enhance
FSL programs and how school boards were to
report back on FSL expenditures. These supplementary funds, under the heading of Renewal of FSL, were received by all school
boards by the end of June 2006 and were in
addition to the regular ongoing federal and
provincial funding received by school boards
for FSL programs.
5
A key component of the Agreement includes an
ongoing consultative process as progress is
charted towards the goal of doubling the proportion of graduates functional in their second
official language over the duration of the Agreement. CPF (Ontario) contributed to the initial
consultation process to the Action Plan in 2003.
Currently, CPF (Ontario) is represented on the
Ontario Ministry of Training, Colleges and Universities’ Advisory Committee on French Language Post-Secondary Education, whose mandate is to explore ways to improve student access to diverse programs of study in French
after high school. CPF (Ontario) has requested
the creation of an FSL Advisory Committee at
the Ministry of Education but one does not yet
exist. Regular communication, status reports
and recommendations continue to be forwarded
to the attention of the Minister of Education.
CPF (Ontario) also coordinated the effort to
bring FSL education stakeholders together to
promote and launch the Intensive Core French
approach in Ontario. The first provincial training session for Intensive Core French teachers
was held at the Glendon College campus of
York University in Toronto in August 2006. The
initiative was also presented to the Chair of the
Literacy and Numeracy Secretariat, the Minister
of Education, teacher federation FSL committees and the Program Development Committee
of the Ontario Public School Board’s Association.
CPF (Ontario) continues to work with parents,
teachers, school boards, other parent groups,
the francophone community and FSL researchers to further enhance FSL programs in Ontario
schools in 2006-2007. Our expanding partnerships will benefit FSL students and contribute to
their success as they use their second official
language.

Executive Director’s Annual Report
Since joining CPF (Ontario) in July, I have been impressed by the dedication of the
Board of Directors, Chapter executives and members alike. Recent Chapter visits
made it clear to me that CPF is truly a parent-based organization from which we derive
our passion to promote the benefits of French second language education and linguistic
duality.
CPF
Canadian
Parents for
French
(Ontario)
We have the commitment of strong individuals and, as an organization, our strategies
have been outlined but will that be enough to address the ambitious goal of the Federal
Government to double the number of functionally bilingual graduates by the year 2013?
We need just a glance at the enrolment statistics and trends identified in The State of
French Second Language Education in Canada Report 2006 to know that there is much
work to be done.
One of my first orders of business as your new Executive Director was to prepare the
Canadian Heritage application for core funding for 2007-2009 for the Ontario Branch of
CPF. Along with a forecast of activities, the application summarizes the results we achieved over the past year that
bring us a little closer to the 2013 goal. I am encouraged by what we accomplished in 2005-06.
The President’s Report highlights CPF (Ontario)’s efforts at promoting the Intensive Core French approach and coordinating the first teacher training session on this method. We also contributed at the ministerial level to improving
access and requested the establishment of an FSL Advisory Committee. These efforts support the three strategic
priorities identified in the Ontario Ministry of Education’s Action Plan to:
• Improve Core French;
• Revitalize French immersion;
• Increase the number of French teachers.
I am encouraged by the level of activity that the CPF (Ontario) office staff was able to coordinate in 2005-06 while
maintaining an excellent standard of service. Le concours/festival d’art oratoire continued to thrive with thousands of
young Ontarians competing in classrooms across the province for the honour of representing their schools and
school boards at this annual provincial FSL public speaking event held at Glendon College (York University).
We continue to develop opportunities and programs that demonstrate that the French language is not an abstraction
but a living breathing part of our community. “L’esprit d’école”, a leadership weekend held in February 2006, encouraged students to think, play and live in French for an extended period of time. Likewise, the CPF (Ontario) sponsored summer camps benefited over 1,000 children this year, with the number of camps almost doubling from the
previous year!
There are new projects ahead. CPF (Ontario) recently entered into a partnership with Opera York who will be touring “L’opéra pour les écoles”, a French introduction to opera with dialogue to engage a young FSL audience. It will
likely run in three communities in Ontario in the spring of 2007.
As we expand the number of activities, we must also strengthen our governance and our advocacy capacity. The
Nominating Committee put forth a slate of directors for the year 2006-2007 that will increase the size of the current
CPF (Ontario) Board of Directors and increase our ability to reach out to new partners, like-minded associations and
stakeholders in FSL education. We welcome these new members and recognize the additional expertise they will
bring to the organization.
We will continue to provide Chapters with advocacy tools to help them achieve results within their school boards and
the public at large. Chapters, in turn, must also expand their membership base.
CPF (Ontario)’s current membership has increased by 18% since February 2005. It is encouraging but still a very
slow growth rate in comparison to the other CPF branches across the country. This province’s expansive geography
makes it very costly to carry out the level of outreach that we would like. Budget permitting, we plan on running a
comprehensive membership campaign with a focus on the northern and eastern regions of the province where we
have much room to grow. We recently acknowledged new Chapters in both Huntsville and London and, hopefully,
there will be many more to come.

Homework Help For French Immersion Students
The Ajax Public Library and CPF Durham have joined with volunteers from Le
Club Français to provide homework
help to French immersion students, free
of charge!
help that is given to the children. Thanks
a bunch and keep up the good work!”
commented Carol Shakes.
Grade 2 students meet Tuesdays and
those in Grades 3-4 meet each
Thursday. Both sessions are from 6:30
to 8 p.m. in the children’s program room
at the main library. Le Club Français
will run for two months, ending on
November 30th. Parents are asked to
donate French books for the library.
“My son, Steffan, has found Le Club
Français to be very beneficial. He looks
forward to being with other kids as they
play fun games. They work in groups
together and make the homework less
challeging. We really appreciate all the
Volunteers include students from both
the French Immersion and French First
Language high schools.
“When programs become available they
must be supported to be sustained or
they will be lost.” K. Allen, CPF Durham
As a result of offering the homework help
club, additional programs have been
initiated in the community: “Summer
Daycamp” and “Fun Night” on Fridays, a
drop-in program for gym activities en
français for $2. A great opportunity to
communicate in French outside the
classroom!
“Parents have to ask for these programs,
they will not magically appear. Library
programs and resources are determined
by population statistics.
French
Immersion students are not identified in
these numbers. Libraries need to be
open to partnerships and volunteers as
they cannot create these programs on
their own. When programs become
available they must be sustained or they
will be lost.” Karem Allen, CPF Durham.
For further information, visit CPF
Durham’s website at www.cpfdurham.ca.
“Our partnership with Le Club
Français is a great example of
how we are able to expand our
services beyond the scope of our
in-house resources.”

Keys to French Inserted
Over the years CPF Hamilton-Wentworth has developed a list
of events that have become mainstays in our calendar.
Learning French Made Easy!
This year our Chapter included The Keys to French in each
student agenda. This initiative rewards the students, parents,
teachers and school boards for their continued support, while
making more people aware of CPF.
Over 1,500 students in the Catholic and
Public Boards have the inserts in their
agendas, and we are getting positive
feedback. We hope the Board will see
the benefits of the tool and continue to
include it for all students.

“Survival Night”
Our Chapter attracted over 200 parents to our first ever “Survival
Night for Parents of French Immersion Children” held on October
12, 2006.
The evening was targeted to parents of children in grades 1-2.
There are approximately 800 French immersion students in the
Chapter’s 6 elementary schools.
A networking session was followed by 3 presentations aimed at
helping parents:
• How to deal with “Les Devoirs” ...when you don’t speak
French - presented by a grade 1 French immersion teacher,
Angela Keipert. Topics included why homework is necessary
and beneficial, where and when it should be undertaken and,
most importantly, how parents can support their children in
French when they do not speak the language.
• The importance of reading with children - presented by
Edith Underwood, early literacy teacher. Reviewed strategies
to make the reading experience meaningful to the child.
• French Resources - presented by Rita Bloem, Chair, CPF
Mississauga South Chapter. Information relating to libraries,
bookstores, TV, radio, DVDs and internet sites was shared
with the audience.
If parents could not arrange babysitting, their children were welcome to watch a French movie in the library. Many families took
us up on that offer!
Overall, we attributed the success of the evening to a real desire
of parents to support their children, the free babysitting and, of
course, the tremendous efforts of a dedicated band of volunteers!
