Après notre voyage aux États-Unis en mai dernier, ma fille Léna a voulu faire un exposé à sa classe et présenter la Californie. Nous sommes partis en famille à quatre : Zoé (6 ans), Léna (8 ans), Sarah et moi (les parents). Je l’ai aidée à construire sa démarche pour réaliser cet exposé, et j’ai décidé de faire l’exercice de mon côté également. Voici le résultat de cet exercice, destiné à expliquer la Californie à une classe de CE2 avec ce que nous avons pu voir au cours de notre voyage éducatif.

Today, it’s already our last day in San Francisco ! Waking up around 6 a.m., it’s waking up early!! We have only one thing on our minds: a hearty, typically American breakfast in a nice place. The program isn’t particularly full, but it promises to be interesting!

A trip on the West Coast?

For as long as I can remember, I’ve been fascinated by North America. I’m not exactly sure why, but during my teenage years I developed a very pronounced attraction to the United States. And maybe more specifically to the City of Angels. This article is the first in a series of twenty. This one allows me to explain why I chose to make this trip on the West Coast.
