The sugar shack theme, “L’Érablière”, is an exciting way to engage your students with French culture.
Some try to teach it by digging up books that are too old or showing videos that are too difficult for the level of their students.
There’s a better way. Our team has put together a new 2nd edition of the “Bienvenue à l’érablière” French kit.
It’s a sleek, integrated resource that has videos, books, and lots of action-oriented activities.

Was I in for a surprise when I met Maxime, a young smiling man. And his 90 year old grandmother, a young smiling gal. And the rest of the family !
They have been running this sugar shack for 4 generations. Maxime’s great grandfather started it back around the time of the big bang.
Take a sneak peek when you have a minute. I’ve put up a one minute demo video on this page.

![]() | J. Lattanzio, French teacher says… “I really liked the layout of this new book with the three different levels of reading difficulty colour-coded , the interesting historical facts found within, the various dialogues that could be easily acted out by students to practice their oral skills, and all of the colourful pictures. My students enjoyed the video very much and are engaged with all the activities that Guy supplied. They are motivated to practice all four skills (reading, writing, listening and speaking ) and engage with each other in a much more dynamic way.” |
You can order pack items such as videos or books separately.
