This class is for high school credit. It is a beginner class but goes at a slightly faster pace than the younger class because it requires more written work and involves more consideration of grammar. There is a balanced development of all four skills: listening, speaking, reading, and writing.
Texts required:
1. Otto Siepmann’s Primary French Course
2. the following novels:
Émeraude, le bébé tortue marine,
Louis Braille,
Brandon Brown à la Conquête du Québec
Each week consists of:
- Poetry
- Songs
- Picture Study
- Reading French novels
- Reading French biographies
- Narrations done in French
- Current events in French
- Grammar in context of stories (Siepmann Primary French book)
- Discussion/conversation in French about our daily lives and weekend activities
The feast doesn’t end just because we are earning a transcript credit!
