Optional: l’atelier des histoires – story workshop 

Créer une histoire. Pensez à un endroit, des personnages et les évènements.  Est-ce qu’il y a un problème et comment se termine l’histoire? Essaie de ton mieux à écrire dans tes propres mots en français. 

Make sure you choose a setting, characters and events in your story.  Try to write down your story or represent it in another way.
