1 Family Tree Project Le français I Chapitre 4

2 Your tree The tree can be your own family, a celebrity family, a cartoon family, a made-up family. The objective is for you to use French & be able to describe people. If you do not feel comfortable using your own family, you don’t have to. But you still have to do the project, so find another family that you want to use.

3 A theme You will present this project to the class.
If we see 35 presentations of “trees,” it can start to feel repetitive. Choose a theme for your background. NOT a tree. DO NOT TURN IN A TREE!!! Pick a theme that makes sense to your family. If your favorite family vacation is the beach, use seashells as the main idea. If your family plays sports together, use a sports theme.

4 Past themes that were really creative
A dart board Dolphins Halloween Costumes & candy corn Cars The Game of Life Famous baseball players Disney characters Winnie the Pooh Nascar TV shows

5 Pictures The theme pictures can count as your pictures. You don’t have to use real photos if you don’t want to. If you do choose to use real pictures, be aware the poster will go on the wall for display, so don’t use any photos that are important or one-of-a-kind. Some students have brought in pictures to show during their presentation, but don’t paste/tape to the project. That is fine.
