Listening and speaking will be stressed in addition to reading and writing activities.

Philosophy

French 2 is a continuation and recycling of what the students acquired in French 1, as well as introduction to new vocabulary, structures and expressions. The students are afforded an environment in which the vocabulary and structure from French 1 is reinforced and expanded to assist the students acquire French in a deeper context. The students are provided an opportunity of repetition of vocabulary through comprehensible input. Multiple sources of input will be presented, so that the students can read, hear, write and speak the language being acquired in an arena of every day situations. The study of culture is reinforced and expanded in French 2. French 2 continues to lay the groundwork for a life-long exploration into the study of French language and culture in the global community.

Grades

The grade a student receives in this course will be a reflection of how the student has performed in two areas: the assimilation and the acquisition of performance skills. These performance skills are referenced in the approved French 2 curriculum and its appendix. The course grade will be calculated from scores obtained on unit tests, projects and activities (reading, writing, listening and oral language production), homework, and a semester final. Progress reports should provide the student and parents with information (average grades or percentages) in four main areas: unit tests, projects/activities, homework completed, as well as participation in class.

The final is also the End of Course Exam (EOC), which will count as 10% of the student's final grade and determine whether or not the student has met the State Standards in Humanities for this particular course. It will consist of a portfolio which includes written and verbal student responses and a written exam evaluating listening, grammatical and reading proficiencies.
