Hi Jadelya, 

It is an idiomatic expression meaning, 

fort /à grand bruit =  very loudly / intensely

often used with the verb applaudir.

Bonne Continuation !

Hi Jadelya,

Not having actually listened to the lesson, but from the text I would suggest "Applaud loudly" or

"Clapped and cheered" 

Hope this helps
