French Culture through the ages


Madame Leidhoff's  Advanced French students read, decoded and performed a farce from the Middle Ages - La Farce de Maitre Pathelin (circa 1464) It was hilarious and the students had fun doing all three scenes. Beee
Based on a text, students also studied and discussed, in French, the relations between America and the French-speaking world from the founding fathers to contributions of Monsieur Chevrolet and  Celine Dion.  Students then sang songs from Celine Dion's album Plamadon.
