I designed a unit for French around Francophone cultural communities around the world. Students worked in groups to research a French-speaking community or country outside of Canada (and not France). They were asked to make an “information packet” about their country, which could take any form of their choosing: a brochure, a scrapbook, a tourism ad, a poster… Whatever they wanted! Each section was written in English, but one sentence or caption had to be in French. Many groups chose to make a powerpoint but here is an example of a scrapbook made by students who learned about Madagascar and a poster by students who researched the Ivory Coast.

Incredible! Thought provoking for the students and artfully presented by them. Their brains were definitely turned on by the project matter. Great idea ms raino!!
