|
| Introduction: |
|
| |
All right here is the deal we might be able to go on a trip to
Quebec for "Le Carnaval". All we have to do is find a way to
convince the principal and your parents that it is a good idea.
Today your Webquest is going to take you on a virtual tour of
this great festival. We are going to learn about all the fun
things we can do there and about the history behind the event.

| Task: |

We must take what we learn and create a persuasive poster to
convince everyone of how great "le Carnival" is and how it would
be a beneficial school field trip. |
