Projet: Le Monde Francophone
Overview: You may work individually or with a partner to research a Francophone country/ province / city. I have given you three options for a final product: a poster, a brochure, or an essay. I have also provided you with some suggestions, guidelines, and details of how your project will be graded. Because this is the Preliminary Chapter, your information will be presented in English.
Option 1: Travel Poster

relaxation-spa, green, destination wedding, honeymoons, luxury, Mardi
Gras, Olympics, Tour de France)

landmarks, shopping, restaurants or regional food, entertainment, walking
