The 8th grade has been studying "le fromage" of France. We've looked at the "terroire" of different regions and will be sharing some of the cheese tomorrow in class. I am looking forward to listening to the student presentations and sampling some wonderful cheese!
These are some of the websites we've been using for our research. Some interesting facts and even a game or two.
