Work in a group of four. Imagine that you are the editors and art designers of a popular
catalog. You must create a two-page feature article on the top 10 bargains of the season. Your
layout should show the top 10 items and inform customers about the items and where they
can be found.
Materials: a poster board, colored pens, rulers, scissors, glue, magazines and newspapers,
access to a bilingual dictionary and the Internet
Copyright © McDougal Littell. All rights reserved.
Preparation:
• Assign roles to group members: researcher, writer, layout designer, and editor. All
decisions should be made by the group. Each member should have two other members
check his/her work.
• The researcher gathers information about the top 10 bargains from the Internet, fashion
magazines, and the style section of newspapers. Then the researcher compiles information.
The group votes on what to keep and what to discard.
• The writer writes the article. The group votes on changes and then the writer revises the
document.
• The designer sketches a layout and the group gives input.
• The editor examines all aspects of the magazine spread and proposes changes. The group
votes and decides to make the changes or not.
• Lay out your work on the poster board, then attach all text and illustrations.
• Decide which members will present what topics. Each of you should discuss some aspect
of the article to ensure equal participation by all group members.
• Present your magazine spread to the class.

Projet 2
Un catalogue de mode
Working in a group of three, imagine you are on the staff
of a popular clothing catalog and that you are working on
this month’s issue. Create a French name for your catalog
and think of a slogan that best describes your product line.
Then, choose a theme (winter ski trip, beach vacation,
school days in the fall, school dance) for the layout. Find
pictures of clothes in catalogs, magazines, and/or the
Internet, and make a ten-page catalog. Exchange catalogs
with another group and make a list of things you want to
order from their catalog.
Materials: colored construction paper, colored pens,
paper, glue, scissors, catalogs, magazines, Internet access
Preparation:
• Brainstorm the catalog name, the product line slogan,
and the theme of the layout.
• Make a list of the clothes that you wish to include in
your catalog.
• Clip catalog or magazine pictures, download images
from the Internet, or draw pictures of the clothes on
your list.
• Glue the clippings or drawings to colored paper.
• Label the clothing with prices and a brief description of
the item.
• Prices should be in euros (€). Look up the current
exchange rate on the Internet.
• Make a title page for your catalog. It should include the address and telephone number of
the company.
• Exchange catalogs with another group and place your orders.
• Display your catalog.

Learning Scenarios
Working in pairs, role-play a scenario in
which you and a friend are packing for a trip
to Guadeloupe. Find out what the weather
will be like during your stay. Once you know
what the weather will be like, write down
each article of clothing that you plan to take
with you on a slip of paper. Use the lists in
the leçon to select your clothes. Then your
partner should ask Est-ce que tu mets
dans ta valise? You should respond
negatively or affirmatively in complete
sentences. Present your scenario to the
class. The teacher can bring in a suitcase for
you to use as a prop.
Scénario 2
Au magasin
Work with a partner and role-play a scenario
that takes place in a department store in
France. You are shopping for clothes to take
on a ski trip to Grenoble (find out where it is
on the map). Your partner will play the role
of the sales clerk and assist you. Discuss the
sizes of clothing, their appeal to you, etc.
Present your scenario to the class.

the teacher calls for a specific article of clothing, des bottes noires, une chemise bleue,
the first team to show the article wins the point.
Activité 3
La mode
Fashions change so quickly, it may be difficult to keep up. Use the Internet and search the
sites of various French stores, department stores, and catalogs. At their sites, find words for
articles of clothing that are not listed in the leçon. Find words, for example, for turtleneck
sweaters, sleeveless tops, tank tops, Capri pants, boxer shorts, mittens, etc.

item of clothing until one of you is unable to continue.
Activité 5
Ah! C’est plus que ça.
Copyright © McDougal Littell. All rights reserved.
Work in groups of three or four. You will need ten index cards per group. On the index cards,
write the names of various articles of clothing and determine their prices in euros. Then join
up with another team. The caller on your team will pick a card and read the name of the
clothing. A player on the other team will try to guess the price of the article. The caller can
only respond C’est plus que ça (make sure you pronounce the –s at the end of plus) if the
article costs more or C’est moins que ça if it costs less. The player has a total of thirty
seconds to guess the correct price and win the point. The game continues until all cards have
been played. The team with the most points wins.
