Unit 4 Culture - Savais-tu que...?

Often times schools in francophone countries do not offer extracurricular sports; however, serious athletes will participate in club sports/activities outside of school.  Activities like swimming, tennis, volleyball, fencing, or skiing are often organized by parents and other volunteers in the community.  Usually, recreation centers or Maisons des jeunes et de la culture or MJC will offer all sorts of social, cultural, and educational activities for young students.

Our cultural destination of this particular unit is Québec, one of the most vibrant and fascinating places in North America.  Within the province of Québec, there is Québec City.  Québec City is so unique in its blend of old and new.  There is a unique combination of what is European and what is North American.  There are often quaint neighborhoods with cafés and small shops with European flavor, but a vibrant, modern city with hotels, office buildings and major highways are all within just a short distance.
