French 8 Period 1

French Level 1 - Year 2.  This is the second of a two year level I course in French.  Students will continue to practice and reinforce speaking, listening, reading and writing skills through Interpretive, Interpersonal and Presentational tasks.

We will use the vocabulary and language structures acquired in 7th Grade to encourage students to move through the proficiency continuum and emphasize what they can do with the language.  They will use their skills in different contexts for different functions, based on their cultural knowledge.  There will be an emphasis on speaking and listening for understanding, as well as reading and writing for comprehensibility.

Upon successful completion of two years of Level I (Grades 7 and 8) and an end of year assessment, students will receive one high school credit and will continue to French Level II at CHHS.
