Activity Overview
Students can demonstrate their understanding of important facts and features of a country by creating a mock travel brochure! This poster template allows students to include pictures and words to describe the geography, climate, government, industry and important destinations within France, although it can be used for any country, city, or state! They can include information about popular foods and pastimes. Students can report on modern-day France or they can create a travel brochure that is representative of a different time period!
Using Photos for Class or uploading images to the Storyboard Creator to use on your brochures will add a realistic touch! Though the example shows only one side of the brochure, students should complete both the inside and outside (2 cells). They can even print them out afterward and fold them!
