YEAR 9 END OF YEAR PROJECT - Resources for English ...



Une Brochure Touristique

Introduction

French is not only spoken in France. In fact, did you know that French is the official language for more than 25 countries?

For this project, you will prepare a detailed brochure on your specific country.

What is to be included in the project?

Your project needs to show evidence of good research, and therefore I would expect sections on

• Location/Geography – where is it in the world? Are there mountains or bodies of water?

• Population – of country and at least one city

• Money – currency used? Include some prices on some: meals, places to stay, etc

• Weather – what type of weather does the country experience?

• tourist attractions – sites to see around town

• brief history – culture and festivals

• food – national dish? Food unique to that country?

• 24 hours in the city – include a map of downtown, explain directions

• Useful phrases in French?

• Facts?

You should also think about what text type to research, in this case it is a brochure. Research what they are on the internet, but typically, you should include:

• Titles and subtitles to separate ideas

• Have titles in attractive, easy to read fonts, possibly on an angle

• A lot of visuals (pictures)

• Most information in point form

• Make sure it isn’t too text heavy

Consider what information you will be looking for when visiting another country with a different culture and language to help guide you.

Presentation is also very important, so you need to take extra special care with illustrations and writing etc.

For extra help, I have listed all of the French speaking countries that you will be working on and next to the countries are useful Web addresses that you could use for your research. You are very welcome to use your own links but these are probably a good place to start looking.
