Further, this is information that can easily be reinforced on a daily basis in the classroom. Students would care about this topic because it gives students the chance to express their personal interests and hobbies using the French language. Also, this is a topic that students will want to know how to discuss in their daily lives. <span style="color: rgb(75, 246, 247)"><span style="color: rgb(246, 40, 217)"> **<span style="color: rgb(75, 246, 247)"><span style="color: rgb(246, 40, 217)">

__Connections__: Learning about how people living in francophone countries use their free time will help students make connections between French and History, Music, Geography, as well as other classes that involve world cultures in their studies. The information obtained from studying behaviors of other societies can also be applied to social sciences such as sociology and psychology.

__Communities:__ Students will communicate with French speakers in Francophone countries about what one another does in their spare time.
