French II

French II is a continuation of the introductory French I course. By the end of the course, students should reach a proficiency level of Novice Mid or above.

We focus on the following topics: Francophone culture & history, school in France, places in town and beyond, food and cooking. Popular culture is integrated into weekly materials, from music videos, movie clips, TikToks, news articles.

Students show their proficiency in French through reading, writing, listening, and speaking in classwork, homework, projects, and a variety of assessments. Activities range from individual, one-on-one, small groups, and interviews with the teacher, which can be recorded, in real time, practiced, and/or spontaneous.
