Mardi Gras Project
Students will choose a celebration of Carnaval/Mardi Gras in a Francophone city. They will research either the history, the food culture, or the celebration surrounding the holiday in the area they chose. Students will create a presentation based on their topic and will present it to the class on the class day closest to Mardi Gras. Students are expected to create a 3-dimensional representation of some aspect of their research to accompany their presentation. These should be no larger than 1' cubed and should clearly represent the topic researched.
