Story Starter
Given a story topic and list of sentence starters, students work together in teams to create a short story in French.

20th Century Collage
In this scenario, student groups research various topics of 20th century French civilization, literature, and culture by decades. Areas of study include music, art, architecture, literature, theater, film, politics, religion, science, medicine, technology, and daily life.

Experiencing Life in the Middle Ages
In this unit, groups of students research topics from the Middle Ages. Each group presents its findings to the class. Students learn new vocabulary and historical information. They review and practice vocabulary related to families, preferences, houses, occupations, and hobbies.

Le Carrefour Culturel
What is American? What is French? The attempt to find a simple definition of either culture is impossible. In this scenario, students develop an understanding of the effects of French colonialism on Africa and/or the Caribbean as well as the concept of Négritude, an expression of the cultural crossroads (carrefour culturel) experienced by those of the former French colonies.
