In this section, you will view a presentation and then you need to do the activities that you are asked to do--physically. You may remember that as a small child, you learned actions when you learned the words to many songs. Perhaps you never realized the importance of that activity. When you learn actions as you learn vocabulary, you tend to remember the vocabulary much longer than if you simply learn the words. So, come on....view, then do. This will be an excellent place to return to warm-up for future times that you log in to the course as well. After you finish this presentation, be sure to take the TPR 1F Quiz. Activité pour s'entraîner Take a few minutes to practice the vocabulary and structures you have learned so far in this activity. Speedword More about Corsica Though the island of Corsica is only about 180 kilometers from the French Riviera, the two areas are very different. The French Riviera is very developed and urbanized and Corsica is still, in large part, wild. There are about 260,000 people who live on Corsica and many are involved in the tourism industry in some capacity.   Imagine you are going to be in France and you want to visit the island of Corsica. Use these websites to plan a 3-4 day itinerary of what things you would do. Choose a hotel and sites that you would see. You may only spend one day on the beach. Include the prices for how you will get to the island and back to France. Ce devoir vaut 35 points. http://www.corse.visite.org/EN/tourism.php http://www.locationcorse.net/gb/hotels/corsesud.html http://www.visit-corsica.com/en/ There are four deadlines for this project: Brainstorming Outline Rough Draft Final project The first one is due now--your brainstorming of your research project is due to your teacher (5 points).
