Hi Russ -

This French page has many interesting projects:

http://www.ofset.org:8000/super/gallery

I think it might give you some ideas/inspiration.

In addition to that, I think it promotes cultural values (learning
from people of a foreign country has intrinsic value - and it may
boost the morale of the 9th graders taking French as a second
language).

My 2 cents...

Cheers.
