This term, Year 8 have been learning all about Paris – the City of Light. They have explored its most iconic landmarks, as well as some hidden gems, through Griff Rhys Jones’ documentary Paris – Greatest Cities of the World.

Imagining their own trip to Paris, they have written an email to a French friend using examples of the past tense, created an advert for a favourite tourist attraction and performed a Parisien rap challenging cultural stereotypes!   

Here is an example of writing by Blake in 8 Hale. Well done for an excellent email about Paris! It includes AI-generated sound to help students with their pronunciation.
