Objectives
  • Practice vocabulary related to food and cooking learned in Chapitre 6 and in Bon voyage! Level 1


  • Familiarize students with the French style of cooking


  • Discuss the French attitude toward food

Notes

  • You may wish to brainstorm with students keywords in French that will help direct them to French-language Web sites to complete this WebQuest.


  • Advise students that they will not know all of the words on French-language Web sites. They should look for cognates and words they already know.

  • The following recipes include foods that students are learning about in this chapter. You may wish to share this list with them to help narrow their search.

    pommes de terre Grenaille

    gigot d’agneau rôti et son jus

    soufflé au fromage

    piperade

    ratatouille

    filet mignon au roquefort

    pamplemousse aux crevettes

    moules marinières

    bœuf bourguignon

    tarte saumon poireaux

Expansion

  • Have students divide into small groups and choose one of the recipes listed. Then, as if they were on a TV cooking show, have them explain in French and demonstrate how to make the recipe. Ask each group to present their show to the class. This activity requires group preparation outside of class.
