We've only got three days till those coach doors wheeze shut and the adventure begins. Remember to tell all your teachers, friends and family to log on to the weblog. They will be able to see how you are getting on and, on some days, HEAR how you are getting on through our audioblog entries.
Just click 'Comment' buttons at the end of each post to leave your mention or question. KEEP SAFE: DON'T give your email address or surname when you comment.
If your teachers don't know what to send to us why not suggest some of these ideas?
Ideas for questions
This might be useful for teachers looking to exploit the idea. Even if you don't have a computer in the classroom you can ask your pupils to prepare questions in French or English along these lines and about these topics:
What's it like to eat frogs' legs and snails?
Is Paris as romantic as they say it is?
What is the most exciting thing to do when you are in France?
What is the theme park, Parc Asterix, really like?
What are the Normandy beaches like now, 60 years since the war?
Other themes:
architecture;
the metro;
long-distance coach travel;
money and prices;
getting on with each other away from home;
food;
French music;
living in the company of teachers for nine days
home-sickness;
sites in Paris: see the itinerary;
Parc Asterix versus Parc Disneyland
WHATEVER your question, send us it as soon as possible on the blog.
Hi
This sounds very exciting, and fits in well with a project I'm running - supported by RGS-IBG grant - called GeoBlogs. Check out the page. With your permission, I'd like to add the details of your field trip, and will certainly be logging on to check on progress.
Excellent idea and fits in well with my personal area of collaborative online projects.
