LMHS French Week!

A few weeks ago, the Liberty Magnet High School French Club hosted french week. This week-long event was to showcase and celebrate Louisiana French culture as well as French culture as a whole. Each day offered a different activity during the lunch shifts encouraging all students to join in on the fun regardless of how much they knew about French Culture.

 

The week kicked off on Monday with a school-wide scavenger hunt. Blue sheets of paper posted around the school with questions asking about French culture. The prizes included a goodie bag with candies and French school accessories like pencils and pins for your bag.  Tuesday students were able to enjoy arts and crafts. Wednesday students got together on a rainy day in the library and played Just Dance. Thursday the French club field trip to Port Allen to see the French museum. Lastly, to wrap up the festivities Friday was the facepaint and photobooth day capturing all the memories all the students made while participating in French week. 

The great thing about this week was how inclusive and interactive the activities were. You were not required to be a part of the french club to participate nor did you need to know much about french culture to partake in the activities. 

The school cannot wait to see what other fun cultural appreciation activities the foreign language department comes up with next year.
