Step 1: Students are taught a concept (in this case it was chores at home for FSL 12)
Step 2: Students are told to create a lesson plan...they need to teach the concept to people in the community.
Step 3: Students go on main street in different locations in their groups...they each take a large whiteboard and markers....
Task:
They have to survey 10 people.
- they first need to teach the people what the phrase "qu'est-ce que vous n'aimez pas faire" means
- they then need to teach the people (with visuals) 8 or so french vocab words (chores)
- they then teach the people how to respond by saying, "i don't like to....+ word"
**They ask the people if they can take their picture for proof to show me, or collect a signature
I also have had students go onto main st. with their group and teach people how to conjugate irregular verbs. They use their whiteboards to demonstrate, and then have the people try it themselves!

Sounds like a very interesting activity. I will bet you get some interesting stories from students about this process.
