Vous allez faire un voyage à Paris pour un week-end.

Qu’est-ce que vous allez visiter?

Qu’est-ce que vous allez faire?

This group project will require that you explore the sights of Paris and plan a weekend trip in the French capital. Your trip will include sightseeing and leisure activities.

At the end of your research on what to see and what to do in Paris, you will present your trip using Google Earth: you will give a virtual tour of your planned weekend visit with an audio commentary in French.

In order to include all required information you need to follow these steps:

1. Research the monuments and sights of Paris illustrated on your planning sheet: identify them and then look for information on the Internet. Additionally, you may review the places mentioned in “Mise en Train” pg.170 and for more details in “Mise en Pratique” pg.194 in your online texts.)
2. On your planning sheet, you will then list six places of interest and decide what you are going to do there. Write full sentences using the future form with ALLER.
3. Include leisure activities with trips to the following:
   1. au cinéma, au théâtre, à l’opéra, à la patinoire, au stade
   2. au café ou au restaurant.
4. Under the section “Arrange your ideas chronologically”, you will rearrange the order of your visit by adding time frames such as days, times of the day and times. Plan your activities as realistically as possible with leisure activities within reasonable distance of the monuments and at times that are suitable. You will need to mention time frames for both sightseeing and leisure activities. (Review “Note de grammaire” pg.173)
5. Say with whom you are going to go and use the pronoun “on” to describe what both your partner and you are going to do.
6. Use sequencing words such as: et, mais, d’abord (first), ensuite (next), après ça (after that), enfin (finally).
7. Write the whole script of your virtual visit so as to record it in a seamless fashion. Both partners should contribute to the audio commentary.
8. Your virtual tour should include images for each place of interest and their sources.

Check the document “Visite virtuelle de Paris” if you need help with Google Earth.

Timeline:

You will have three class periods and personal time to complete this project. Make sure you submit your script for proofreading before recording your commentary.

Bonne visite !

Une petite conversation entre Claire, Ann, Marc et Jérôme

Let’s explore the conversation taking place between our young students at the collège!

Log in to your online textbooks and go to chapter 2 “Vive l’école !”.

Click on the Book Pages tab and select the Mise en Train La Rentrée section on page 48-50. Go through all sections from Stratégie to number 10. Practice your listening skills by listening to all dialogues. (Click on the sound button in each section.) Repeat after each dialogue to practice your speaking skills. Make sure you have a good understanding of the story before starting the exercises. You may want to listen one more time to the whole episode while following with the text by clicking on the play all button above Activités.

Go to the Activités menu and do activities 1 to 6. Save your answers on the Cahier électronique.

Post all your answers to the above exercises on your blogs under the unit title Vive l’école! You may copy and paste your answers directly on your blogs or post screen shots of your answers. You are expected to write full sentences as much as possible.

Deadline for completion: Next class on Friday, February 8.

During the first half of this class, you will research about Arles, following the directions given in this previous blog post. Make good use of the Activity Sheets you were given in class on Monday and you need to post the results of your investigations on your blogs.

During the second half, you will continue working with your online textbooks: you will read the text of “Mise en Train” in Chapter 9. You may want to watch the video as well as listen to the audio files before answering questions 1 to 6. Make sure you save your answers on your “cahier électronique” before publishing them on your blogs.

Enjoy discovering Arles!

You will go to your online textbooks (or use a hard copy from the classroom) and review the grammar learnt so far in chapter 8.

You will need to go to all three Etapes of Grammaire supplémentaire in chapter 8, in order to complete all exercises 1 to 12.

Post your answers on your blogs after copying them from your “cahier  électronique”. Make sure you have pasted complete sentences and not just words.

You will complete all exercises of “Mise en Train” and “1ère Etape” in your Chapter 5 Practice and Activity worksheets, exercises 1 to 9 on pages 49 to 52. These sheets will be handed out to you at the beginning of the lesson. If you cannot complete in class, please finish at home.
