Younger students approach the language playing games like "petit-bac", "7 familles" or loto. Older students engage in a class with a food related theme having specific vocabulary and grammar learning/practicing objectives. Example : "ma recette préférée" to practice infinitive, imperative and quantitative articles writing a recipe that will be shared with the others. There is a wide range of recipes, savoury and sweet. Very often we cook a savoury and sweet version of the same recipe: vegetable and fruit crumble, vegetable/cheese and sweet clafoutis,... Most of the ingredients used are seasonal, organic and locally provided.
