Students will learn the strategies they need to acquire a foreign language. Students will learn vocabulary and key phrases relevant to the syllabus topics as a first year of preparation towards the New York State Regents Exam in French. Some basic, essential grammar and structure is taught in this year and there is a great emphasis on vocabulary acquisition in such themes as: classroom objects, food, clothing, body parts, weather, animals, traveling downtown, family members and friends and favorite activities.
Students will learn intermediate vocabulary for each of the syllabus topics during this year. Students will be tested on essential skills of speaking and listening, reading and writing, with an eye toward taking the Regents at the end of the next year. In this beginning Checkpoint B course, vocabulary recognition and recall is paramount. Study of past and future tenses is undertaken, as well as direct and indirect object pronouns. Students are expected to participate in daily exercises toward improving their language skills.
During level three, students will be honing their language skills to the level of the New York State Regents Checkpoint B. They will learn how to express themselves with more sophisticated vocabulary and grammatical structure. French III students will be able to use the subjunctive and the imperative. There will be an intense irregular verb study. At the end of the year, students should be ready to take the New York State Regents Exam.
