This course teaches basic French vocabulary and grammar that are typically taught in a French 2 course at the secondary level. Students are encouraged to build basic conversational and literacy skills in French through speaking, listening, reading, and writing activities. The content and instruction of this French 2 course adheres to the standards of the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages (ACTFL). By completing the lessons, students will learn to expand their vocabulary and to express themselves in French. Grammar is introduced and practiced within practical contexts. In addition, cultural information is woven throughout this course in order to expose you to the people, geographical locations, food, music, and other cultural aspects of the French-speaking world. All materials are accessed online within the course and all assignments are submitted there.
Students will learn to form questions, describe their family members and themselves, clothing vocabulary and shopping in France. Grammar is expanded to include more verbs in the present tense as well as the beginning of past tense (passé composé) usage. Students will also learn some cultural information about countries in Africa with ties to France, as well as a unit on cultural sites in Paris.
