What if your students could experience the tensions that led to the French Revolution instead of simply reading about them?
Our interactive Bastille Day simulation puts learners at the heart of France in 1789, where they must manage resources, negotiate in simple French, and make difficult decisions as events unfold. Blending language learning with history, this ready-to-use lesson encourages communication, teamwork and critical thinking while helping students understand why the Revolution happened.
With flexible one- or two-lesson options and less than 10 minutes of preparation, it’s an engaging way to celebrate Bastille Day while building confidence in French.
