Bastille Day or really La Fête Nationale


Vive le quatorze juillet!  Long live the 14th of July!  Pepper is back in France.  This time for la Fête Nationale, the National Holiday, better known as Bastille Day in English-speaking countries.  

Learn with Pepper about the start of the French Revolution, the storming of the Bastille and the celebrations that followed in later years that lead to la Fête Nationale on July 14.  Understand why Marie-Antoinette was accused of saying “Qu’ils mangent de la brioche,” let them eat cake, and why another day was called "La journée des brouettes," the day of the wheelbarrows.  Pick up some French vocabulary along the way.  On TpT at:  Bastille Day or really La Fête Nationale with Pepper
