Textbook learning is supplemented by two workbooks with on-line components  Une fois pour toutes and AP French Preparing for the Language and Culture Examination - both published by Pearson Education, Inc. In addition,  films, television programs, podcasts, music, poetry, and art will be used to enhance the program.
     
    The objective for AP French is for students to become proficient in interpersonal, interpretive and presentational communication in preparation for the
    AP French Language and Culture Exam. Lessons will include reading, writing, speaking and listening activities that stress these three modes of communication. A third objective is to enrich the students' cultural knowledge of the Francophone world so that they can make more defined comparisons that their own cultural experiences.
     
     
     
    FRENCH III and French II
     
    Bon Voyage! is published by Mc Graw Hill Glencoe. Textbook learning is supplemented with workbook activities and puzzles, a chapter video, CD listening activities, vocabulary transparencies, art and cultural components for each chapter, and Mindjogger video review games. Internet review activities, games, and quizzes can be found at www.french.glencoe.com. In addition to Bon Voyage!, newspaper and magazine articles, internet sources, and music will be used to enhance the program.
     
     
    An objective for Level III  is to complete learning activities in the first half of the green textbook Bon Voyage Level II ! Level III students will be introduced to more advanced vocabulary and grammar. Another objective is that students should, with practice,  progressively feel more comfortable with their speaking, reading, and writing ability, particularly as they are able to use more sophisticated French to express themselves. A third objective is for the students to become more culturally aware of the francophone world, and to be able to make comparisons with that of their own experiences.
     
    French II students complete learning activities from the second half of the red textbook Bon Voyage level I! They will become familiar with speaking in the past and future tenses - speaking more about themselves and their lives ... and making comparisons between their own cultural experiences and the francophone cultural experiences about which they are learning in class. Level II Honor students will cover the same curriculum as Level II students but will work at a faster pace in order to complete pre-AP activities.
