  • LOUSONNA : Un Passé D'actualité
    CANTON DE VAUD DÉPARTEMENT DE LA FORMATION, DE LA JEUNESSE ET DE LA CULTURE (DFJC) SERVICE DES AFFAIRES CULTURELLES dp • n°61–2017 LOUSONNA : Musée romain un passé d’actualité de Lausanne-Vidy PRÉAMBULE Ce dossier pédagogique s’adresse aux enseignants et aux élèves des cycles 2 et 3. Il aborde la notion de contextualisation des traces et permet la comparaison des sociétés humaines en tenant compte des dimensions sociale, économique, politique, religieuse et culturelle. Les enseignants du cycle 2 sont invités à s’inspirer de ces notions et à adapter leur démarche. La partie « avant » permet de se préparer à la visite autonome du Musée romain de Lausanne- Vidy en donnant des informations sur la ville gallo-romaine de Lousonna, son développement au cours du temps, ses principaux bâtiments et son emplacement stratégique. Elle propose également une réflexion sur le commerce et les échanges à cette époque. La partie « pendant » comprend des fiches d’activités pour les élèves à réaliser durant la visite du musée. Elles sont axées sur le repérage et l’identification de traces du passé, en questionnant leur fonction, leur nature, leur diversité et leur utilisation actuelle. Elles invitent donc les élèves à découvrir les objets de l’exposition permanente et à s’approprier le discours du musée qui illustre comment, par bien des aspects, l’antiquité romaine renvoie à l’actualité moderne. La partie « après » regroupe des prolongements possibles à réaliser collectivement en classe suite à la visite. Ce code QR vous donne l’accès direct aux illustrations et aux photographies présentes dans ce dossier, ainsi qu’à toutes les fiches d’activités et à leurs corrigés !

    Metamorphosis: The SNFCC to the World 23 – 26 June 2016 Program of events Thursday, June 23rd 2016 18:00 – 21:30 | WESTERN STREET | Sports Activities Folk Games A contemporary and amusing revival of games that still excite children in squares or school yards and which we are all acquainted with or have played when young. Hopscotch, tug of war, hoops and hop sack racing will be, among others the starting point for contemporary versions of the games which, however, will not change those particular features that have made them last through time, becoming an integral part of our folk culture. And it is not only the children who will have fun playing. Grown ups will recall memories from their childhood and might even be tempted to play too, turning this activity into a meeting across generations and an occasion for some essential mentoring of the young. For children ages 5-10. Number of participants per program: 40 children Program duration: 10’. There will be a total of 20 programs. 18:00 – 21:30 | GREAT LAWN | Sports Activities Kids’ Athletics Children are initiated in the world of classical sports and fair play by participating in sports/games adapted to their age group without the pressure of competitiveness and the requirement for performance. Five Olympic track and field events: standing long jump (an Olympic sport until the 5th Olympic Games of Stockholm in 1912), pole vault, discus throw, running and hurdle race, are transformed into group activities through which the young athletes come in contact with the values of fair play, sociability and acceptance of diversity.
