FAIRE LA PUB POUR UN MONUMENT PARISIEN Make a commercial for a Parisian Monument

Contents: Green section: Information about project Orange Section: Monuments and links Yellow Section: Questions for you to answer Blue Section: Additional Links

Task: Our class has been hired to create commercials about Paris. You will be gathering information about a famous monument in Paris or in the Paris region. You and your partner will have 2 days to work in the library, to do your research. (April 15 and April 23) In between these 2 dates, I encourage you to work on your commercial at home or in the library when possible. . Bonne Chance

How to proceed: 1. Read carefully through the green section. 2. Choose a partner and select a number from the tin. 3. Find your number in the Orange Section and visit your monument (click on the link) 4. Scroll down to the Yellow Section in order to find out what information needs to be covered in your commercial. (you may go beyond what is asked of you!!!) 5. Additional useful links are provided in the Blue Section.

Your Publicité has TWO componants: 1. The Power. Point with images and information about your monument. 2. The Script which you will read as a voice-over for your Publicité. (The script should be written in English) The name of the monument and the last sentence where you encourage people to visit your monument must be in French! Feel free, however, to include as much French as you would like!

ADDITIONAL INSTRUCTIONS: 1. Start your research using the suggested links in the orange or blue sections. 2. Collect pictures. (Choose pictures that enhance the information in your script) 3. Select a detailed map of Paris so you can show on where your monument is located. (You can mention what other monuments are close by) 4. Create your Publicité using Power. Point. 5. Provide the information requested in your commercial, but also include at least one reason why we should visit. BE CLEVER and INVENTIVE. 6. Although the body of your Publicité is in English, include words and phrases in French to give your Publicité some flare. 7. The last line inviting people to come visit must be en français. 8. Turn in a copy of your script when Power. Point is due.
