Québec expérience
In the French program 8th grade students get the opportunity to travel to Québec during the 4th quarter. In Québec they are hosted by authentic Quebecois Families where they can put into practice the vocabulary that they have learned in the classroom. Being in contact with native speakers is priceless and students quickly apply the grammar concepts while broadening their lexicon. They also gain a better understanding of the culture and tradition. Besides making great academic progress they are also discovering a great country. Québec is a land of explorers and adventurers. Students get to see many facets of the Québec Province: while many envision this region during its blustery winter, spring (we usually go there during the month of May) and summer is a magical time to discover the past and present of “La Belle Province.” Just outside Québec City students get to see the Montmorency Falls (83 meters tall, and 30 meters higher than Niagara Falls). We also see the beautiful Canyon. After our BBQ we visit the Beautiful Basilica de Sainte Anne, and the Copper Museum where students get to make their own copper art piece. A trip to Quebec is not only a lesson in the tug-of-war between French and British cultures but also a window into the history and tradition of a third player, the Huron tribe of Wendake. These are many of the attractions, the students get to experience. On certain years we are able to attend to the amazing Cirque du Soleil which adds another dimension to the trip. Finally no visit is complete without trying the Québecois cuisine, and traditional dishes. Among them students get to eat their host family’s food, as well as, poutine and maple candy… This adventure is a great experience that will change them forever. Annette Koerten French Teacher |
