le 30 septembre

S8 and M8:

You have two assignments for Friday. Please read the following directions carefully.

1. In the textbook, read pages 302 and 303. Then, write out 2 questions in full sentences in French about EACH person’s information that you read. There will be a total of 10 questions. (S8: you can bring in one question per paragraph for tomorrow,with the other 5  to be finished during the class.) This will be shared in the class as we discuss the answers to these questions that you write.

Be sure to write in the 3rd person (il/elle) and be ready to also answer the questions (There needs to be a real answer within the reading.) You do not need to write out the answers, however. You do need to indicate that you understood the paragraphs.

2. Work on gathering information from the French websites “La Redoute” and “Les Trois Suisses”. You need to find two items of clothing from each store and keep track of the information that is on the chart on page 301 (except for the “pour qui” section.)

Next, find two American clothing store websites and search for a comparison; if you are interested in a sophisticated jacket in a specific style in a French store, try to to find one like it in an American store, etc. Find American versions of the French items if you can, and write down the information on the chart that you make.

3. S8: Bring in your Fashion Show outfits if you are participating in that activity as a model or a narrator.
