Plot (short): An new English course for young teens by Editions Bordas (France). I only found it for grade 6e. Maybe other grades later? (Some) clips are set at the Eleanor Roosevelt Middle School (USA). American host kids: Will and Sophia (unit 1). There are also 7 song clips including karaoke and 7 games.

The clips are included at least in this special edition "Usage classe hors équipement élève. * Manuel numérique enseignant - licence classe" (139 EUR). Not sure if this contains a DVD or DVD-ROM, maybe currently just online clips? In the workbook I only found 7 clips mentioned in total. Maybe more in a digital (teacher's book) "Manuel numérique enseignant".

Another course from that publisher is Hi There!
