Barbara,
I think you may be referencing something that relates to the expression covered in the attached lesson.
Why is "faire partie de ..." used - because that’s the way it is in French, and ‘"être parti/e de …" also means something different.
Faire partie de = To be part of (French Expressions with faire)
