French: Une étude sociologique

Bonjour à tous! As a teacher of (young) adults, I take in consideration the current events in the language target to better put the language in its proper place for a learner, for it is vital to not only study the fundamental rules, but to also understand its context...its culture. In other words, to (really) get what make the language AND its people tick!

French level: Advanced (FR 300-400)

Objective: Analysis of current event-Photographs

Location: France-Europe

Instructions: Students will give a detailed description of both images; then, will make a logical-analytical-historical statement of the (possible) meaning of images. Compare & Contrast.
