INTERVIEW A PARENT OR A GRAND PARENT, TO PREPARE A PORTRAIT :

Interviewez un parent ou un grand-parent. Je vous recommande de ne pas écrire les phrases en vous servant du français directement, mais de prendre les questions comme base d’écriture

a- Ask them to choose 4 adjectives to describe their personality. What are they like ?

b- Describe them physically. What do they look like ?

c- Ask them to tell you about experiences that have changed them or influence their life now :

what they have studied / the people they have met who have influenced them  in a good way/ the jobs they have had /

 the best experiences they have ever had…

d- ask them about what they used to be like as a child or a teenager / what sort of student they were/ where they used to live/

what sort of school they used to attend/ how they used to go to school / if they used to help at home/ who their best friends were then

e- Ask them about what makes them very happy now and what used to make them very happy when they were a child or a teenager

f- Ask about their dreams when they were your age

g- Ask them about their regrets, and their wishes now for the future

h- Write about what you like about them, what you admire about their personality, what you are grateful for (= reconnaissant)
