Objective
  • Familiarize students with the practical aspects of planning a trip on the TGV from Paris to another city in France
Notes

  • You may wish to brainstorm with students keywords in French that will help direct them to French-language Web sites to complete this WebQuest.
  • You may wish to instruct students to use the French-language SNCF Web site as it is easier to navigate than the English-language site. You may also wish to direct them to the voyages-sncf site.
  • If students have read the Lecture supplémentaire in Chapter 9, they have learned that trains leave from different stations in Paris depending on what direction they are going in. As is the case in real life, selecting the correct Paris train station from which to board your train is impossible unless you know what part of France the city you've chosen is in. The activity in this way reinforces practical knowledge of Paris as well as French geography.
