Since the monuments in France are not covered in any depth the student researches information about the monument and writes a one page report accompanying the art project. The art projects left by the students have been wonderful visual aids for other classes. Students who enjoy researching and writing may write a three page typed research paper on a topic of their choice pertaining to France and French culture. This paper is presented to the class. The cooking project.
Students select a French recipe and prepare it for the class.
They also prepare a one page paper on a topic of their choice. They present the food and talk about how it is prepared and they also present their paper. If a student has not found an option that suites them with the previous three I invite them to find a project of their own and we create the guidelines together. I make suggestions based on what students have done in the past or where the individual student's interest lies. The presentation has no maximum length.
