Ce trimestre, nous cuisinons des recettes de pays francophones!

This trimester, the theme in French A was Bon appétit dans l’Ouest de la France.

The class learned how to offer, accept and refuse food as well as asking for and giving an opinion on food they ate. They also used the partitive articles, the verbs vouloir, pouvoir and -ir verbs in the present tense as well as the conditional and imperative.

After doing research on typical specialities from francophone countries, students decided to prepare either a sweet or savory dish, and film a short cooking video of themselves making the dish. These dishes ranged from a pudding chômeur to profiteroles.

This project tested their ability to both speak the language and apply the new grammar that they had learned throughout the trimester.

Finally, students compiled all of their research on the recipes, as well as a step-by-step guide to cooking these dishes at home on their very own French A cooking blog!
