choices for the countries: le Mexique; l’Allemagne;les Etats-Unis;l’Italie; l’Egypte; l’Angleterre; la Chine; le Japon

destinations including countries and cities that you will go to. Draw a line from one place to the next. (Use your partner map or a map in the textbook to find French cities) Underneath the map, write 5 sentences.

For example, from Paris I draw a line to England and put a large dot, then from England I draw a line to Rouen and draw a large dot, then from Rouen I draw a line to Spain and draw a large dot…etc. Then my sentence will be: “I will go from Paris to England.” “I will go from England to Rouen.” etc. (“J’irai de Paris en Angleterre.)

I will go = J’irai.
