Course Description:
This course introduces students to French grammar, pronunciation, history, literature, and culture. Class time will include homework review, discussion of grammar concepts, language practice, quizzes, and some games, and cultural activities. We will work through as much of the textbook in the course of the year as possible, at least 1/2 of the textbook and possibly more depending on the studiousness of the students. This course will be followed by French 1B/2 the following year if necessary to complete the remainder of the textbook and to continue with the French 2 book. Students may earn 1/2-1 credit of French depending on how much of the text we complete during the year.
Course Expectations:
It is very important that all students keep up with the work at all times. French is like math in that concepts build upon each other. Without a good foundation, mastering more complex language patterns will become more difficult. Students are required to participate in classroom activities, to prepare all homework oral, aural and written, and to study for quizzes and tests. Each week students will receive a list of study activities for the week which will require approximately 2-3 hours to complete. Activities will include listening to lectures, completing written homework assignments, listening to audio materials, memorizing vocabulary, conversations and Bible verses, studying for quizzes, and taking exams.
