En vacances! (Level 2 Reader, Age 12+)

En vacances!

Story: Wendy Maxwell, Illustrations: Ian Fry, Blackline Masters written by AIM teacher/presenter Edite Sammons.

Appropriate for ages: 12-Adult

Two teenagers, Marie and her friend Suzanne, are on a trip from their home in Montréal to Martinique during their holiday. A series of amusing events takes place after Marie bumps into a young man named Pierre at the airport. Marie's initial reaction to Pierre is not very positive, nor does her second impression of him improve when he accidentally spills water on her during some turbulence on the plane. However, he redeems himself at the end of the story during a scuba-diving excursion. The Blackline Masters contain language manipulation activities that focus on vocabulary-building as well as grammar, appropriate to the junior high or beginning high school level.  There is also a cultural unit on Martinique and a unit discussing the Caribbean rainforest ecosystem.
