- Translate the news related vocabulary from the list that I gave you at the end of May. If you cannot find it it is linked here . You can print it or copy it. It is not due IN teams but it is due when you get to class August 11 (or whatever the first full clas period is).
- Write a summary (en français ) of significant event that happened in a Francophone country this past year / current summer- this is newsworthy information.
(examples- politics / war/ arts/ festivals / discoveries). Include link or source. You may do this in "summer work" in French 3 teams 2025-6 or on paper to turn in the first week of school. Use the vocab list from above. This does not have to be super detailed- just the important aspects. If you do not understand the topic, pick something else. DO NOT USE A TRANSLATOR! I expect and welcome mistakes. I want you to try.
